The gameplay is characterized as simple and easy to learn, but many users find it boring and lacking depth. Critics argue that merely adding more cars or tracks won't enhance the experience, suggesting that a complete rework or additional customization options and power-ups are necessary to make it more engaging.
- “Simple and easy to learn gameplay.”
- “It's just plain boring. It's ridiculous that the developer wants to charge for the 'full version' once it gets out of early access. Adding more cars or tracks isn't going to improve the already stale gameplay; it needs a complete rework, or at least more customization options or power-ups—anything to make it more exciting.”
