Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be a mixed experience; while some enjoy the laidback exploration and trick jumps, they criticize the grindy unlocks and technical issues that detract from the overall enjoyment. Achieving certain challenges, like the 1440-degree flatspins, requires significant grinding, which can feel tedious amidst the game's design limitations.
- “I am not hostile to the idea of a laidback exploration-styled game with remote-controlled toy cars and nice environments while you do trick jumps and the like, but between the design restrictions, grindy unlocks, frame rate problems, and wonky vehicle behavior of some unlocks, you are left with something that barely qualifies as a tech demo.”
- “The hardest ones are the 25, 50, and 100x 1440-degree flatspins, but they are easy to get with a little grinding.”
