The graphics in the game have received generally positive feedback, with many users praising their quality, detail, and smooth performance across various hardware setups. However, some players noted areas for improvement, such as the need for more realistic environments, better antialiasing options, and enhanced interior visuals to increase immersion. Overall, while the graphics are considered good and showcase potential, there is a consensus that further polishing could elevate the experience.
- “The graphics are stunning, and the ability to walk outside of your truck is really unique compared to other truck games.”
- “Graphics are spot on for today's standards.”
- “The graphics look gorgeous; you can't beat around it, and it runs quite well.”
- “The graphics are too horrible!”
- “Overall graphics could be a bit more polished and sharpened up in my opinion.”
- “Interior graphics are a bit grainy and should be massively improved to increase immersion.”

The gameplay has received mixed feedback, with users appreciating the tutorial and driving mechanics but expressing a desire for more detailed guidance on trailer handling and improved controller functionality. While some find the driving experience engaging and realistic, others criticize the gameplay for being too simplistic or arcade-like, particularly due to time limits and control issues. Overall, there is potential for improvement, especially with future updates and the full game release.
- “The gameplay is as simple or realistic as you want it, and the graphics are very nice.”
- “The skills honed in Truck World smoothly translated into the gameplay of American Truck Simulator, allowing for a smoother and more confident experience.”
- “When working, the game does run smoothly and the mechanics do make for fun gameplay.”
- “Regarding the small tutorial, it was a nice introduction to trucks and the game's mechanics; however, some further information and guidance on trailers, blind spots, mirrors, and how to utilize them in the world of trucks would be great. Additionally, a test and information regarding how trailers can act would be a great benefit to those who don't know and are trying the game.”
- “For some reason, my controller, while selected and recognized in the settings of the game and pop-up windows, simply would not function when it came down to gameplay and in-game actions, which was frustrating.”
- “I expected more; the gameplay and driving were not interesting. It does not match any other games like Euro Truck Simulator 2 and SnowRunner.”
story

The game's story is largely absent, with players describing it as a series of frustrating and unrealistic missions rather than a cohesive narrative. While the aesthetic and user interface are appreciated, the focus on timed challenges and the lack of depth in storytelling leave many feeling that the experience is more akin to a beta test than a fully developed game. Overall, the missions are seen as overly difficult and lacking in engaging content, detracting from the potential for a compelling story.
- “Much to my delight, this driving school experience offers you to drive your truck down a quarry pit to attach your trailer (and do the same trip back up in the next mission).”
- “The missions are fast and walk you through the basics of truck driving.”
- “For example, the quarry mission was only possible by jumping off the edge to get down in time.”
- “The game has been here a long time now; it probably won't make it to a full release, just another war story.”
- “All in all, I can't even get out of the first tutorial mission because the devs messed this up that badly.”
- “Also, some missions are hard to master because getting 3 stars requires less than 0 penalty points; therefore, it's impossible because you start with 0 and can't have less.”

Overall, the optimization of the game is praised for its solid performance, smooth graphics, and lack of significant bugs or crashes, especially in the demo version. However, some users expressed concerns about specific gameplay mechanics, such as the harsh performance grading timer, which detracts from the overall experience. With further refinements and optimizations, the game has the potential to reach a high standard similar to established trucking simulation titles.
- “But in terms of bugs, glitches, or random crashes, I haven't seen or had any, so for a demo, it's very well optimized.”
- “Graphics, audio, controls, physics, and rock solid FPS performance (RTX 3070 in ultra) are great.”
- “Graphics are really good, running smooth with no stuttering.”
- “The worst thing is the performance grade timer is awful. This isn't a racing game; they already have a very precise tracking system. The timer is very harsh, and I have no idea how you're supposed to complete some tasks in time, including starting your cab. This isn't what trucking is about; it's about precision and enjoying the journey.”
- “To begin with the issues strictly pertaining to this driving school demo, I don't know whose idea it was to grade the performance on a timer, but please don't let that person make important decisions anymore.”
- “I don't want to have to grind for time-based performance points just so I can discover more of your game in the demo.”

The stability of the game has received mixed reviews, with some users experiencing significant glitches, controller issues, and occasional freezes, while others noted that it runs well on certain systems and is generally well-optimized for a demo. Although there are reports of physics-related bugs and minor stability concerns, many players found the overall experience enjoyable despite these flaws.
- “Runs great on my Linux machine.”
- “Controls do not work properly, game glitches and freezes, controller setup does not work, etc. 0/5”
- “Looks like it has some potential, graphics are okay and physics seem realistic enough (with some strange glitches), but the experience in general is very lacking.”
- “A few buggy controller setting issues and the devs need to make the 'feel' of the extra weight of having a trailer on, but nothing major.”

Users express mixed feelings about replayability, noting that while some may find it lacking, particularly in the demo version, perfectionists might still enjoy revisiting the content. Overall, there are concerns that the game may not offer significant replay value, especially for those seeking varied experiences.
- “Replayability is not an issue if you're a perfectionist.”
- “Now onto one of the issues, I doubt this demo is going to have much replayability. I think it's just a much better way to show off what you can do.”
- “Well, I guess they want some extra replayability, but that's just how it is.”

The music in the demo is generally considered acceptable, but players express frustration over the lack of volume control options, particularly the inability to mute or adjust the menu music separately from other audio. Additionally, the intrusive menu music can be distracting while setting up controls, highlighting a need for improved audio settings before the game is released for purchase.
- “The music audio is on the same volume slider as the overall general volume slider, which can be a bit inconvenient.”
- “I hope they consider adding a dark mode option for the menus to enhance the overall experience.”
- “It would be great to have the ability to control the volume of the music in the menu, as it can be distracting while setting up controls.”
- “I can't turn off the mind-numbing menu music while I'm trying to set up controls.”
- “The music audio is on the same volume slider as the overall general volume slider, which is frustrating.”
- “Not being able to control the volume of the music in the menu (no slider) is a significant drawback.”
grinding

Reviews indicate that the grinding aspect of the game is often seen as tedious and time-consuming, reminiscent of older farming simulators. Many players feel that the excessive grinding detracts from the overall enjoyment, suggesting that it could benefit from significant improvements to enhance the experience.
- “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
- “If this was what I got in Europe and North America, I would never have started driving video game trucks, especially never have tried parking because this becomes just all tedious and not fun.”
- “Feels like a 2015 farming simulator; if you fix that, then it's a perfect 10/10.”
