The gameplay is centered around an arkanoid-style mechanic where players use left and right arrow keys to fill a mine trolley with gold and ore. However, many users find the controls and trolley mechanics to be broken and laggy, leading to a frustrating and overly difficult experience that quickly becomes repetitive. Overall, the gameplay is criticized for being mediocre, lacking joy, and suffering from poor graphics and level design.
- “From a gameplay point of view, this is an amusing arkanoid-style game in which you need to fill a mine trolley with falling gold and ore.”
- “The entire gameplay is based on just the left and right arrow keys.”
- “Gameplay is engaging and offers a unique twist on the classic arkanoid style.”
- “Mediocre gameplay, although it works well.”
- “Because the controls and trolley mechanics are broken and laggy, making the game way harder than it should be. It becomes repetitive very fast, and some levels have a strange layout, making everything hard to see.”
- “Absolutely no joy from gameplay.”

The story conveys a powerful message about resilience and the unpredictability of life, emphasizing the importance of perseverance. However, some users feel that the lack of voice-overs detracts from the narrative experience, as reading the text can diminish the emotional impact of the story.

- “The story is engaging and keeps you invested in the characters and their journeys.”
- “Voice-overs would have helped immensely, as having to read the text yourself takes away from the story they are trying to portray, in my opinion.”

- “Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”

Reviews indicate that "Trolley Gold" is primarily a cash grab, designed for card farming rather than providing a meaningful gaming experience. Players find the grinding aspect to be tedious and demoralizing, as it feels more like a chore than enjoyable gameplay.
- “Trolley gold is shovelware, designed purely for card farming and giving away en masse so its creators can gain some extra cash from the Steam market.”
- “Soul-destroying card farming.”
stability

Overall, users express concerns about the game's stability, describing it as buggy and poorly constructed, akin to a rushed flash game. While some areas are perceived as easier, the inconsistency in difficulty progression raises questions about the game's design and stability.
- “Looks and acts like a buggy, rushed, and unfinished flash game. I could probably find similar and free flash games on the internet that are made better.”
- “Australia was easier than California as you didn’t have to worry about the time aspect. However, Africa was harder than Australia due to the RNG of the ore, but still had no time issues to worry about like in California. In my opinion, since it goes California, Australia, and then Africa, shouldn’t the game get harder as you progress to new places? Not harder because the game is buggy or built poorly, but because of difficulty.”
