### 1/5 — too hard

*2024-10-10*

the controls are too difficult and stressful

### 4/5 — Good but needs work

*2023-07-17, version 1.14*

The game is awesome for just sitting back and Chillin although I wish there were more than 2 modes and also for zen mode PLEASE make the road any colour other than white? Like for some it’s seriously hard to tell the difference. Otherwise I absolutely love the game another thing I would add is to make the “drift score” to actually reflect your drifting not just if you get the lil circles like more than half the time I’ll have a flawless run but the score is only ever 1 because I missed the circles by a centimetre. Make it watch your drifting and say like UNIQUE DRIFTING or EXCELLENT or STYLISH based off what your run looked like.

### 2/5 — Impossible to play

*2022-11-11, version 1.14*

Long roads, no checkpoint. I tried many times, but it is not controllable :(

### 5/5 — hat Spass gemacht! 😊

*2021-09-12*

Habe gerade das letzte (36.) Level geschafft. Hat gedauert… die Steuerung ist nicht leicht, aber es stimmt schlicht nicht, dass das Spiel nicht „spielbar“ ist!

### 3/5 — Average

*2021-08-17*

Its good for fun but could be more better if you could control the car more precisely……
Pros
- Good musics
- top down and graphics
- relaxing and curiosity 

Cons
-  vertical only not for ipad…(no landscape mode).
- car control could be better
- whenever car is out of the track you have to restart …..

### 3/5 — Тормозит

*2021-08-16, version 1.14*

На iphone12 игра тормозит, когда идёт дождь в игре.

### 2/5 — Очень сложное управление

*2021-08-16*

Приятная музыка и атмосфера игры, но жутко сложное управление:(

### 4/5 — Good

*2021-08-16*

Little bit hard to drive the car. And when car stalk with tree by its back part, it starts spin around like hell.

### 3/5 — Inverted controls needed

*2021-08-06*

Needs inverted controls the steering just feels wrong

### 3/5 — Idea is cool, but not a realisation

*2021-07-14, version 1.14*

I like how the idea of this game. It reminds me Art of Rally game. But the realisation is not ideal. 
The steering is made for one finger, and you must to get used to it, as there are no other options now. So you can’t be very accurate and you can’t slow down or use reverse. 
Some levels lag very much. First I thought it could be a some kind of slo mo, to help with corners, but on second thought it looks like game can’t load resources in time.
Also it would help to get cut through the trees in corners, as I could not see the car when tall tree was in apex.
