What players say
Most players recommend this free racer for its fast, flashy arcade driving and good looks, but many say its pay-to-win progression and grind weigh heavily.
Many players enjoy the fast, arcade-style driving with nitro, drifts, stunts and crashes, and the crisp visuals that run well even on older or low-end PCs. Players also praise the wide range of cars, tracks and seasonal events, and the Steam version without ads. Complaints centre on the heavy microtransaction push: many players say progress is locked behind blueprints, premium currency, energy systems and daily grind, so better cars are effectively bought. Some players report that linking a Gameloft account across platforms cost them Steam rewards, and a few report the game failing to launch after a recent update. Reviews from the last year lean more positive than the older helpful ones, but the monetization complaints recur throughout. Opinion is positive overall, though the monetization weighs heavily on many players.
Praised
- Fast arcade driving
Players enjoy the high-speed, nitro-fuelled racing with drifts, jumps and stunts that make driving feel fun and chaotic.

Some players - Free to play
Players appreciate that the game is free and can be enjoyed without spending money, at least in its early progress.
Some players
Criticised
- Pay-to-win progression
Players say better cars and upgrades are bought with money, and multiplayer rewards and balance favour those who pay.
Many players - Grind and energy limits
Players report long grinds for blueprints and car levels, plus energy systems and timed events that limit how much they can play.
Many players - Constant microtransaction pressure
Players say the game repeatedly pushes purchases with pop-ups, offers and fear-of-missing-out prompts, which makes it feel like a mobile game.
Many players - Account and platform issues
Players say linking a Gameloft account across platforms cost them rewards on Steam, and a few report launch failures after an update.
Some players
- Who it suits
- Suits players who want quick, flashy arcade racing sessions and don't mind grinding or spending on cars.
- Who should skip it
- Should skip it if you dislike pay-to-win systems, timed energy limits or constant purchase prompts, or want a deep single-player story.
Short vs. long playtime: Players with hundreds of hours describe the pay-to-win balance and grind as the main problem, while newer players mostly praise the driving and graphics.
