The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the frequency and intrusiveness of ads, which often lead to crashes and disrupt gameplay.

The grinding aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players finding it excessively tedious and time-consuming to earn in-game currency and upgrade their vehicles.
