The music feature in the game has received significant criticism due to persistent bugs that cause crashes when attempting to load custom tracks, as well as issues with incorrect song playback and limited song selection. Players express a strong desire for improvements, including the ability to adjust music and game sound levels separately, and a more reliable music player that allows for a broader range of songs. Despite these issues, many users appreciate the option to play their own music while enjoying the game's graphics and gameplay.
“I'm playing this game for 3 years, and honestly, this game was always my first choice playing it for hours listening to music.”
“This is the best truck simulator I could find on here with not only the best attention to detail on the truck but the scenery as well is good as well and the gameplay is really good and ability to buy new parts and operate everything on the truck including positioning the seats and mirrors to where it suits you and upload your own music to the truck stereo which is cool as well.”
“Amazing game to chill, listen to music, and play this game. Wish it was easier to make money and had a bigger map and able to repair leased trucks, but other than that, great game for low-end phones and amazing game keep up the good work devs.”
“Local music glitches the game and kicks you out when you load your music; it's a good game otherwise.”
“When I try to add music, the game crashes or restarts.”
“The music player is not working; every time I add a song, the game restarts.”

“Best truck driving simulator I ever played. Stunning graphics and gameplay are awesome, but please add other cities and off-road missions.”
“I love this game! The graphics are like ETS2, 10/10 for details and physics. However, it needs more missions and longer journeys.”
“I love this game concept... but there are so many glitches. Why do we return to base every time we complete a mission? It's so annoying. Another glitch is when we exit from the truck during a job, the game will exit and we need to restart the game and that job.”
“Bruh, fix your game. It keeps crashing. Every time I enter the game, I expect at least 3 or 4 crashes during a mission. I wouldn't mind, but it doesn't auto-save, and both my friend and I have lost a lot of progress and had to do it again. This really made me quit the game for several months because of how annoying it was.”
“The game is good, but one thing I will play, I can't finish my mission because in the middle of the game it will vanish. What's wrong with that?”

The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with players appreciating the absence of intrusive ads but criticizing the high cost of in-app purchases and frequent crashes following these transactions. Many users report that in-game purchases lead to technical issues, such as black screens and loss of progress, raising concerns about the game's reliability and fairness.

“One of the best truck simulator games! The map is so beautiful, just need a cloud save system for safety in in-game purchases!”
“What a waste of time! You just wanted to earn views from ads. After your truck was damaged, it's over. Pretty clever with the black screen 🤬 after paying for repairs, nothing changed.”
“This game is a total scam. For weeks now, my screen is black and my truck is totally damaged for no apparent reason. I bought cash to purchase a 200k truck and now I can't use it. I reached level 20 and now my money and hard work are wasted. Please be aware of this scam; the developers are scamming people after they make in-game purchases. They turn the whole screen black and decommission your truck for no apparent reason.”
“So this is basically a cash grab where you have to first pay to even start the game.”
