Fun and engaging gameplay with a focus on technical driving and precision.

Overall, the graphics are seen as a mixed bag, with some players finding them acceptable while others deem them subpar for contemporary gaming standards.
- “The purple-ish graphics and simple textures are quite nostalgic.”
- “The graphics are great.”
- “They provide much more content at a reasonable price with better graphics.”
- “Graphics are bad for a 2014 game.”

The game's story aspect is largely absent, with no overarching narrative or character development, which has led to some disappointment among players. Instead, the focus is on mission-based gameplay, including challenges like dangerous drives and reflex tests, but the limited number of missions and lack of free-roaming options restricts the experience. While some players appreciate the challenge and variety of missions, many feel it lacks the depth and progression found in other truck simulators like Euro Truck Simulator 2.
- “But if you want truck driving in mission style, particularly if you also want to experience some 'adventurous' challenges to increase your trucking skills, this is your game.”
- “While it has all those challenge modes, it also has a couple of free roam modes similar to a large city in ETS2 that have trailer missions to pick up and medals to collect if you can find them.”
- “The 'amazingness' of this game comes from the many modes and missions.”
- “There are no upgrades and no storyline, so I quickly got bored and found myself trying to go off-road for a bit of fun, but no can do; the 'invisible wall' would bounce me right back.”
- “What I've seen, there's no story mode in this game, unlike Euro Truck Simulator 2 where you can start as a freelancer and grow your company until you have several employees and trucks.”
- “It was okay, but I didn't like how you could not just drive freely without having to do a quest or something.”

The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it enjoyable and comparable to titles like Euro Truck Simulator 2, praising its controls and mechanics. However, others feel that it can become repetitive after 30-40 hours, suggesting that while it offers fun experiences, it may not hold long-term engagement. Overall, it is seen as a solid option, especially when on sale.
- “The gameplay is quite enjoyable.”
- “Gameplay and control mechanism is good.”
- “For those who know and played Euro Truck Simulator 2: this is the same developer, so the basics in physics and gameplay are similar (controls and graphics seem to be much better as far as I can tell).”
- “Oh the gameplay, it's what lets it down.”
- “Gameplay: 5”
- “I'll go with 8/10, it can be boring after you play around 30-40 hours or so, but it's worth a few bucks when on sale, provided you get a minimum 24-hour gameplay, a whole day straight!”

The game's stability is mixed; while it generally runs well and offers a simplified experience compared to ETS2 and ATS, users report significant issues with hardware recognition, particularly with keyboards and G29 pedals, leading to freezes that require hard reboots. Additionally, the user interface can be buggy, and while the AI has minor glitches, they are not considered game-breaking.
- “It runs great and shows a slightly simplified version of what you will see in ETS2 and ATS.”
- “This game doesn't seem to recognize the keyboard or G29 pedals. I spent 3 hours trying to get it to work at all, and then it freezes, requiring a Windows 10 hard reboot. Eventually, I opted for mouse and keyboard, and that didn't work either.”
- “- The UI can be buggy at times.”
- “- The AI has some minor glitches: nothing game-breaking, more funny.”
