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.

“The hardest ones are the 25, 50, and 100x 1440-degree flatspins, but they are easy to get with a little grinding.”
