Recurring themes

Ads negative
Many users complain about the overwhelming number of ads, which appear frequently, sometimes even during gameplay or after every level, making the game nearly unplayable for some. This contradicts the developer's general 'quality of life changes' note, as ad frequency is a major detractor.R1R9R11R16
Bugs & Glitches negative
Players report frequent crashes, especially at 35% loading, and various in-game glitches affecting camera views, car mechanics (like reverse buttons), and visual elements (transparent cars, black floors). This directly contradicts the developer's 'bug fixes' claim.R11R20R22R34
Gameplay Mechanics negative
Many users are frustrated by unfair point deductions (e.g., for AI cars hitting them, 'incorrect blinker usage' when correct), the 'fuel' system requiring long waits or ads, and the need to upgrade cars or reach certain levels to progress, which feels like a paywall. Some specific issues like missing reverse buttons or problematic truck/boat levels are also mentioned.R5R10R12R17
Educational Value positive
Despite the issues, many players appreciate the game's ability to teach real-life driving rules, road safety, and general driving concepts, making it helpful for new or aspiring drivers.R2R15R19R40
Updates negative
Several long-time players feel that recent updates have worsened the game, introducing more ads, requiring car upgrades, and generally ruining the previously enjoyable experience. Some even report losing progress after updates.R6R16R18R56

Who it's for

This game is for younger individuals or aspiring drivers who want to learn basic road rules and practice driving in a simulated environment R2R15R19R40. It is NOT for players who dislike frequent ads, expect a bug-free experience, or get easily frustrated by unfair game mechanics and progression walls R1R11R12R29.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew heavily negative, particularly regarding ads and bugs, which contrasts with the high lifetime rating. This suggests a significant decline in quality or user experience following recent updates. The developer's notes mention 'bug fixes and quality of life changes,' but recent reviews strongly contradict these claims, indicating persistent or new issues.

  10. [R68] 4/5 · US Ultimate rage bait: This game is honestly great! Has some good features (really annoyed it restarted me though) and it does in a way simulate how driving is especially from the 2nd perspective. But OH MY GOSH this is the definition of rage bait.

  15. [R16] 3/5 · US soo many ads: i loved this game before the update and everything and then i deleted it and now after every level its an ad and it gets very ridiculous after a while

  20. [R10] 2/5 · US Bad game: This game was OK until I got to the only third level and I was trying to reverse the car and it didn’t even have a reverse button. I don’t know if that’s my phone or the game cause every other level had a reverse button I had to watch an ad to get rid of the level because I could not pass it this game reeks.
  21. [R12] 1/5 · US Why.: I hate the whole concept of fuel. WHY DO YOU NEED TO WAIT 5+ MONTHS JUST TO GET 20 GALLONS OF FUEL?! LIKE, COME ON! LITERAL RAGE BAIT!
  22. [R17] 3/5 · US The curbs: I hate the curbs on some of the levels because I lose points and my car is not high off the ground enough terrible
  23. [R14] 3/5 · US Mid low-key bruh: It’s fine but after I got to level 98 there were no more levels after that and I got soooo bored of it and it takes a lot of storage on my iPad so I just deleted it bruh
  24. [R18] 1/5 · US Update: This game used to be so much fun but I think last year they did a huge update and it’s totally ruined the game. Now in order to drive or do certain levels your car needs to be upgraded to the highest level that is total bull.
  25. [R24] 5/5 · US It’s good but: I love the game, but honestly too many requirements though, I wish I didn’t have to watch an add just to have one minute of fuel, also I think the upgrades to drive other levels is annoying, I’d love if you can see this to make some differences, because i barely play this far now.
  26. [R28] 1/5 · US This is the worst game in the world: Not an exaggeration, you cannot progress with spending money. You can buy a car in game for $50😂. Don’t waste your time this game is horrible and the creators need to go bankrupt.
  27. [R138] 1/5 · US Taking my money: I bought the coins for 1 about 4 times never got my 200 coins once such a scam
  28. [R160] 1/5 · US It took my purchase!!: I had bought some gold coins 3 times and it never showed in the account at all. Like wtf
  29. [R6] 4/5 · US So it kept all my progress and im rich: This game is a little too short and slightly pointless to be 5 stars (your lucky if you played this game more then 3 or 2 years ago and got rich like me) I just redownloaded this game Turns out i got 2.5m money and 180+ gas all the levels completed ever since early 2024 i was not expecting seasons in this game with the drastic change update. I have one probl
  30. [R56] 1/5 · US Game sucks now: I used to love this game. I even paid money in order to play all the levels. But now after all the updates, the game now sucks. Why do you need a high-level car just to play other levels why? Do you need a certain amount of stars to play more levels the game was literally perfectly fine when I got it. in fact, it would’ve been my favorite game but now because of all the stuff you
  31. [R29] 1/5 · US Ad problem: So this game was good until… they added 4x the amount of ads I only get 30 seconds to play every time before an ad after the ad I play another 30 senconds and repeat. I DO NOT recommend this game if you do not like ads. | dev please remove some ads |
  32. [R62] 1/5 · US So many ads: This game USED to be so fun because it was actually playable, now there is an obscene amount of ads and it makes it quite hard to do anything enjoyable.
  33. [R48] 1/5 · US Doesn’t load: Seriously, y’all need to fix bugs. Game doesn’t load for me anymore.
