### 1/5 — Grrr

*2025-10-13, version 2.0*

1 star it’s not connecting

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-04-27, version 2.0*

I love it so much

### 1/5 — Disappointed and expensive

*2024-11-15, version 2.0*

We downloaded this on my sons PlayStation. We didn’t realize you had to buy an actual car for $130 to play. It’s advertised like any other hot wheel game so I was just a little shocked we HAD to have an expensive race car to play. An option to play without having the actual car would be nice. Honestly if it was cheaper I would consider buying it. But spending $130 on a car that my son will lose interest in within a week is insane. Even $50-$75 I would have bought it. But $130 is asinine. We deleted it shortly after. The game itself looks nice but absolutely not for the price.

### 1/5 — Didn’twork with iPad
