The game's stability has been a significant issue for many users, with frequent freezing and crashing reported, particularly after updates. Players have expressed frustration over losing progress and purchased items due to these glitches, making the game nearly unplayable for some. While there are positive remarks about the game's potential and improvements, the ongoing stability problems overshadow the overall experience.

- “The game runs smoothly without any crashes or bugs.”
- “I haven't experienced any stability issues; everything works as it should.”
- “This game used to work perfectly and now it constantly freezes upon entering the garage. I have no Facebook, therefore no way of communicating with League of Monkeys to get the problem sorted. This is the second phone I've had where I've had to start again from scratch and redownload all the elite cars at $10 each, only to lose the lot. I have no way of resolving the issue because it freezes before I can report the bug, so I'll be deleting the game.”
- “Every time I even try opening the menu, it crashes or freezes. When I get to doing an event, the screen freezes when the timer runs out every time, and I never get rewarded.”
- “This is a really awesome game until it freezes and erases all your progress, making you start from level 1. This has happened to me 2 or 3 times now.”

There are calls for better optimization for low-end devices, as well as requests for more performance customization options and additional content to enhance gameplay.
- “It's a really good game... I love the effort put into the car detailing and stuff, but I was wondering if drag races could be added to the game for players above level 50 (multiplayer). I mean, we can't let all the rev limiter and sick engine sounds and performance go to waste. I'd really love to see that happen in the next update. Thank you.”

The game's story aspect is criticized for its lack of narrative depth, with players expressing a desire for a more engaging storyline to complement the gameplay. Many users feel that the repetitive missions and lengthy leveling process detract from the overall experience, leading to frustration and potential disengagement. While the game is considered fun and well-designed, the absence of a compelling story and excessive ads are significant drawbacks.

A compelling storyline or more driver RP could keep players engaged. It's not a bad game; it's really good, but the grind is a bit too long.”
- “I wish it had some more challenges, drift tracks, or some type of story or narrative to make the game more interesting.”
