NOW THIS IS A FUN LITTLE GAME!!! You got LOTS OF CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS THE FLAG IN THE BACK IS A GREAT TOUCH!!!! You have the choice if you want EVERY TRUCK FOR A FEE or just ADS FOR A SMALLER FEE And the THE ON TRACK BILLBOARDS actually make the game MORE REALISTIC!!!!! Good job.
This game is good and we reached a bunch of levels. Unfortunately, after a recent update, the game locked up on startup. We could only delete the game to get it to work again. Unfortunately, we also lost all our progress. After reinstalling the game it locked up again after a just a few levels? Please fix whatever is wrong with it. Update: works great now. Too bad you cant compete against actual players. We reached many levels and accumulated 50k gems. Its unfortunate that you cant upgrade the individual rigs to more speed and more grip on the wheels and so forth. More trail grades should be added.
When you pick a card we swear its rigged.
Love the game to pass quick time, obviously to many ads. But after the second event it freezes on the, pick one of the three rectangles screen, and you have to shut the whole game down to get anywhere else on the game after. Its a new occurrence but consistent and annoying. Hope it gets fixed. Thank you.
Love this game so relaxing at the same time..love the background scenes..love how we can enjoy this game without getting frustrated..the play is simple & fun. We like to play this game on a whim when Im waiting in our car or just to pass the time to relax..ThankYou.
We like this game, we even paid to eliminate ads, but it freezes after every level. We have to close it out and bring it back up again. Now we dont even bother. Yall need to fix this game! Please.
Our 3 year old son and we play this game for fun, he loved it. Now there is ads that block the buttons you need to push to get to the next level. We thought it was just a one time thing, but after the restarted the app it immediately happened after one play. Come on guys, do you not want people to play this game.
We love this game but the screen freezes at the end of the international race.
Hello please fix its too much glitches and ads one needs to go.
If you like repeating the same thing over and over and rollover , with advertisments that last longer than each level. This is your game.
Its a great game but they need to still fix the bugs. At the end you still cant collect points all the time or the game locks up at the end. Then you have to shut it off and turn the game back on then you lose your points.
So the game is dumb there is no other context. It is impossible to loose giving no challenge THE CARS WAIT UP FOR YOU also once you pass them they wont move they stay in place.
Best day of our life its at everybody down like this ever but we will just go crazy about this game this is the best game we ever live because when people get this game its just gonna be the best game in the world not everybody who is they have this game youll be going crazy everybody just has to get this game signed Drake.
Seems a lot of these app companies need to learn a lesson in msrketing. You want people to play your product. We can r believe the sheer number of apps that force tons of ads on you. It is completely a waste of ones time when you have to watch ads more than play the game. Many better options out there than this.
Version 1.8.3 introduced a problem that makes it very difficult to start the game. You get a blank screen on launch. If you wait until the game crashes, launch again, wait for the 2nd crash, and then switch to the game in app switcher it will run. In case its hardware or OS dependent, we use an Apple iPhone 13 Max with IOS 15.1.1.
Been playing this game for a while. We enjoyed it a lot. Yesterday we opened the game and all our pink gems were gone. We had every vehicle other than VIP. Now we have one. We had over $120,000 and poof, gone like a fart in the wind.
The game is fun. We want to keep playing but the game lags behind a lot, so sometimes its hard to determine when to hit the gas going up a hill or over obstacles to keep from flipping end over end. We have excellent Wi-Fi too.
For every level you clear, 3 ads pop up. You watch more than you play. If you click no thank it will still force you to watch the ads. We had to delete it.
The game randomly changes your name and country of origin when you do the country races. Regardless about what you have set up in the settings. IF you decide to pay to not have ads, it doesnt matter because you now have ads that are placed like billboards along the side of the track. Its distracting and circumvents the idea of no ads when you pay. It would be nice to eventually have additional vehicles and or skins too since theyre easily all unlocked. Its also unclear how the ranking is determined.
Fun game, little rough around the edges but way too many ads. Every time there are several ads to progress. And these ads are extended, sometimes close to 60 seconds. Most are 45+.
All the freezing during game play is making the game near unplayable.
Alright so we used to like this game, now each race has like 6 billboard looking ads signs on it. Better put an option in to allow paid members to turn them off.
Update as of today 07/18/21, you added ads to the track. Very tacky. Im done playing your game. It use to be fun and beautiful now your just ioi in a player one world. Goodbye and good riddins.
Can you please update the app info on our App Store.
Fun but ads wreck it. Cant spend more time watching ads than playing the game.
This is a fun game, but we cant take it any more. We spend more time watching ads than playing the game. Also, there needs to be more levels. We played all levels in two days time. If it lessened the ads, we would have considered keeping.
We paid for the ad free version because it seemed like it would be fun. You still need to watch ads to unlock new stages. Needs a major update for us to change our mind about this game. Seems very repetitive.
This game is boring! There is nothing challenging about this game! It lets you winif you fall behind it actually waits for you to catch up and win. SMH! Where is the challenge??? Also, TOO MANY ADS.
Bad graphics and when you watch ads it doesnt give you the diamonds.
Game is super fun but once you complete everything its just pretty much the same race over and over and over. Please add more.
Really fun game at first, but eventually becomes repetitive. Not worth it to spend money on the game because as other people have said, you can get all the upgrades and even accessories really quick. Would be really cool if you could race other players online or buy parts to upgrade your vehicle instead of just buying tires and stuff for the aesthetic.
Spend more time watching ads than playing the game.
You literally can not lose. Want a challenge, try and lose. Once you realize there's zero challenge, it's pointless.
For us very laggy and sometimes freezes and closes.
Looks promising for a simple game but Ill never know. It runs slow and ragged on our iPhone so we deleted. Its like someone put sugar in the gas tank! Bye.
The game could be a lot of fun. Do one race that doesnt even last a full minute. Then there is 3 minutes of ads. Way too many ads to be fun, so we give only 2 stars.
Installed last night uninstalling today. Timed out 15 mins of play time. 11 mins of ads for 4 mins of play. We know you got to make a few bucks but thats just stupid. You have to watch an ad to do ANYTHING.
A game that always lets you win first place and has an ad every 45 seconds. The only way to play this is on airplane mode and only if you have absolutely nothing else to do on the toilet.
We never write reviews, but this game is so frustrating because it has potential and could be fun. Essentially the AI always lets you win, the upgrades can all be done within a couple hours and the rest are meaningless. Each race only takes about 30 seconds and then there are multiple ads after every race.
The game is fun but not worth all of the ads.
Literally every little thing you do makes a commercial pop up other than that its a fun game just be prepared to watch 5 commercials before each race.
Except you literally spend 3x more time watching ads than playing the game.
Would uninstall but you lose all progress if you do. Cannot lose any regular race. AI set to stop before finish line. After about level 50 there is nothing new to unlock without paying $10 for VIP. Gem collection becomes useless. Purely an ad grab game with no attention to players beyond 2-3 days. Do not wast money on no ads, game becomes useless after a few hours of play.
Wont let you watch all the ads so that you can get your things.
Too many mandatory ads to advance to the next level or gain coins.
This game is so much fun. We find ourselves just playing race after race after race. It will be epically cool when its finished, because as it is now, its a total beta test version. The limitations: – theres basically no way to lose a race. The AI will always wait for you to catch up – really needs some PvP, but the gameplay might need to be a little less brutal first. If you screw up and start flipping backwards, in a PvP game you would likely be totally screwed. – needs a bit of vehicle balancing. Ive found that one vehicle handles all courses better than all the others, no matter how much you practice on them. Would be cool if some vehicles were just a bad choice on certain terrain. – could use some fun events. Theres a world tour, but again, its just against the AI and they let you win. All in all, awesome game play, just needs to be finished. We gave it 5 stars cause Im guessing there will be more functionality coming down the road. Ok, that was totally punny.
Its a time killing gem of a game BUT it tends to freeze after we collect the coins often. When doing the trophy challenges it will freeze after collecting the coins as well never saving where we left off. Will also freeze when we tap the play now in the trophy challenge and never even play the video.
Its a fun game but freezes way to often and always after a level is completed and you get rewards. Or right after a video.
This game kept crashing trying to load an ad so we just deleted it the game is fun but having to reload the game after every round gets irritating.
New update now its impossible to lose in normal races unless you flip upside down … We were suspicious and tried to lose but the NPCs and its impossible they will wait for you and act like they cant go uphills or something crazy what is doing on developers.
