The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many players noting that they appear dated, often comparing them to titles from the mid-2000s. While some appreciate the aesthetic and find them acceptable for casual gameplay, others criticize the low-quality textures and lack of detail, suggesting significant room for improvement. Overall, the graphics are described as fair to mediocre, with a call for enhancements to better align with modern gaming standards.
- “The graphics are good, even at low settings, and it runs at around 20-30fps on my work laptop, which doesn't have the best specs.”
- “The graphics are great; the game is so realistic.”
- “Loved this game; realistic driving, very good vehicle control, amazing graphics.”
- “The graphics really look like it's an old game from 2004-2007, but just with bloom effects. The driving physics are... well, okay, but I really enjoyed just relaxing, sitting by the wheel, and driving anywhere.”
- “The graphics are terrible in-game.”
- “The graphics are not great, especially some of the vehicles and objects in the scenery have low-res textures and low amounts of polygons, but that can be worked out later.”

The game's story aspect is notably lacking, with players highlighting the absence of a narrative or character-driven missions. Instead, the gameplay revolves around repetitive transport and escort missions that offer minimal variety and engagement, leading to a sense of monotony. While there are numerous missions available, they primarily consist of similar delivery tasks without any overarching storyline or progression, leaving players desiring a more immersive experience.
- “Having let this game develop over the last year or so, I returned to check it out and wow, what a vast improvement! Still have little AI traffic issues, but then so do established games such as ETS2 and ATS. That being said, it's still worth the money if you like hauling different cargos. It would be nice to see a proper story mode or career to give it a little more purpose.”
- “I believe it delivers what it's described so far. You drive cargo around, and you have the bonus that you can actually put the cargo on the vehicles using a forklift. It seems it has a little delay when going forward in the forklift, but as I never drove one before, I don't know if it's intended or to be worked on.”
- “The missions are a nice easy but skilled loading with a forklift (so far) and progress to wheel loader and telehandler.”
- “☑ No story.”
- “There isn’t even a campaign journey to embark on, nor are the missions given to you by characters or in-game companies.”
- “While the number of missions in this sim is large, the variety in type leaves much to be desired.”

The gameplay of the game is generally described as simple and repetitive, with a focus on delivering cargo through a basic mission structure. While some players appreciate the core mechanics and the potential for fun, many criticize the lack of variety, poor vehicle handling, and numerous technical issues that detract from the overall experience. Overall, the game shows promise but requires significant improvements in gameplay depth and stability to fully engage players.
- “This is a really fun trucking game with an interesting gameplay idea.”
- “There's good range in deliveries, vehicles, and destinations, and the gameplay loop is good if you want a breather between other games.”
- “Overall, the game mechanics are quite good, and by that I mean the core concepts of loading and having different vehicles for jobs.”
- “The gameplay soon becomes monotonous and somewhat boring after a while as the majority of loads are the same, and the distance of routes, although fair, pays poorly.”
- “Driving mechanics are absolutely horrible, graphics are very sub-par, and I had major frame drop spikes on anything but very low graphics settings; yet I have a PC that can play any AAA title on ultra settings in 4K without any problem.”
- “But alas, the gameplay formula simply amounts to driving around the open world, pulling up to a mission orb, and then sifting through the list of cargo types/delivery lengths to determine which one you want.”

The game's stability is heavily criticized, with numerous glitches affecting multiplayer synchronization, vehicle visibility, and AI behavior, leading to a frustrating experience. While some players find humor in the bugs, many agree that the game is still in early access and requires significant improvements to achieve a stable and enjoyable gameplay experience. Overall, the presence of frequent freezes and graphical issues detracts from the overall quality, highlighting the need for ongoing development and fixes.
- “I saw no glitches and no AI issues.”
- “I saw no glitches and no AI issues.”
- “Don't get me wrong, the multiplayer only makes it playable and fun, but the glitches are unreal (almost unforgivable), such as player environments not syncing, the time of day and traffic differing for each player. A car on my screen may not even show on the other player's screen.”
- “Good game but has a few glitches; the left mirror sometimes blacks out and you can only see the rear view of what it's meant to show. The gameplay freezes up while driving for a few seconds.”
- “As it is early access, there are bugs (graphic glitches especially), stupid AI, and damage penalties or traffic violations are not substantial enough.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and time-consuming, often requiring excessive effort for minimal rewards. While some appreciate the detailed mechanics and multiplayer functionality, many feel that the loading processes are overly simplified compared to competitors like Farming Simulator, leading to a less satisfying experience overall. Overall, the grinding is seen as a significant drawback, with some players suggesting it detracts from the game's potential enjoyment.
- “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
- “Hard grinding with little reward”
- “The price is far too expensive; some would say extortion for what you are getting. It's really easy to see the end game: you keep grinding and buying until you have bought all the vehicles.”
- “Great concept but tedious.”

Overall, the game's optimization is inconsistent, with users experiencing varying frame rates and occasional stuttering, particularly on medium-end PCs. While some improvements have been noted, such as reduced pop-in and better performance with heavier cargo, many players still find the optimization lacking and recommend waiting for further updates before purchasing.
- “The basics work well, performance is very good.”
- “I like the physics; heavier cargo has an impact on performance and handling of the vehicle hauling it. Perhaps increasing the map size for more locations would enhance the experience. Overall, I like the game so far, as long as the developers keep improving it.”
- “Optimization: sometimes I get 50 fps and sometimes 100+ fps.”
- “It isn't optimized the best; I had a few frame drops within my hour.”
- “There's no optimization, and if there is, I only get 20 fps, so there's still something wrong or missing.”
- “Poor optimization makes it uncomfortable to play with a medium PC.”

Despite some concerns about potential repetitiveness, the game's ability to evoke laughter remains a strong point.

- “The AI traffic is insane; it's funny and a mess, but I love it. It keeps the game from being stale, really.”
- “This game, at first glance, looks like every other simulator game; however, this one has solid driving physics that feel nice to drive. The crash physics are funny as heck, and something I hope they don't change, as my friends and I have had many laughs launching each other 2000 feet in the air.”

- “Could use music for on the road, maybe a radio.”
