### 5/5 — suggestions

*2026-08-11*

It’s a really good game, but there are some things that you could improve on.
A way to diagnose problems because it doesn’t make sense to already know all the problems. I was thinking of holding on parts to see it’s condition
Part images match their colour condition in the bottom bar
Fluids
More detail to parts(more parts, holes, etc)
Add more parts
More cars
More detail in engine swaps(unscrewing, buy engine lift, etc)
Add lifts to get to the underbody
ADD A ZOOM FEATURE THAT WOULD BE SO HELPFULLLL
Maybe just my preference but a slightly larger recycle and sell button
Left and right side wheels not universal wheels
Separate tires and wheels
Skill tree e.g faster repairs
Screwing has a timer thingy
Overall very good game considering its content and time in the public
Thank you for creating a mobile car mechanic game, this is the only good one!
Just saw the new update, I miss the old font style and and tires but it’s fine.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! The order of assembling the engine is now universal and more correct.

### 5/5 — Super Spiel

*2026-08-02*

Super Spiel ist mein Lieblings Handyspiel 
Es gibt immer mal neue Autos 
Aber ich würde mir noch den DeLorean als Auto wünschen

**Developer response:** Danke!

### 5/5 — Пожалуйста

*2026-08-01, version 2.31.1*

Я прочитал некоторый состав игры и там написано что вы не будете добавлять авто в игру после 2000 года так вот пожалуйста добавьте в игру автомобиль бмв м5 е39 выпускавшийся в 1995 году, в 1997 вышли новые модели туринг и в 2000 начали выпускать рестайлинг так вот рестайлинг мне нравится больше всего и очень вас прошу пожалуйста добавьте рестайлинг. Играю эту игру почти 3 года играл с друзьями очень нравится и ставлю 5 звёзд заранее спасибо ☺️

### 5/5 — Really cool!

*2026-07-28*

This game is amazing for car lovers like me. I do have some suggestions though. If you try to drive a car in the autodrome, even if one tiny part of your car is slightly damaged it wont let you race. I think that the car should have performance loss based on wich part is damaged and how much. For example if your pistons are damaged you lose horespower, or if your brakes are damaged you can’t stop as fast. Of course if there is damage to a major part the engine shouldnt run. Anyways great game keep up the good work!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback!

### 5/5 — Great game! But I have ideas

*2026-07-25*

Great time killer and perfect for long flights and road trips but in the racing feature I think that they should ad damage if you crash into walls ( for example if you have manual transmission on if you don’t sift for a bit you burn you clutch) and if the creators don’t agree with this idea it’s okay I also like the game how it is but please think about my idea.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback!

### 5/5 — Thank you for the jaguar and other new cars

*2026-07-24*

And I love it make it more fun and easy to repair and also new cars are available and please subscribe to my channel or search on safari and look for abelmoters\urban alpha cyber king

**Developer response:** Thank you for the rating!

### 5/5 — Ajout d’un mode de conduite

*2026-07-21*

Très très bon jeu mais j’aimerais un que l’ont puisse se déplacer en voiture pour aller au port par exemple et que si on veut pas et bien on le désactive

**Developer response:** Merci!

### 5/5 — Bitteeeee
