DONT BUY ANYTHING
I paid $30+ for DLC and the app didn’t save any of it won’t let me restore my purchases. Everything I bought was gone after the “free trial.” I’ve read many reviews saying the same thing, this “try and buy” version is either broken or a scam.
Great Game!!
I love playing this game unfortunately with the most recent update the game has lost my purchases and just says out of time. Restoring does nothing
Good but…..
It is a great game, but too rage baiting
scammers🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
“try the game for free” nothing works. ill make sure to tell everyone not to play this trash scam
What a Joke.
Tried to download this to see if I wanted to buy the actual version, I can’t even get this game to start and play, keeps telling me to “download and install missing assets” then keeps telling it has a problem, been trying for two days now..
Don’t get this game
Gotta play for a couple hours then it said by the whole game for $10 this game is not free not recommend recommended
Scam
Bought the game for 9.99 and it charged me $50
They have o iQ
I bot it and I did not get the game
Mason
I bought the full version of the game and only let me race once. I wasted $10 of my hard work earnings and that went to waste because the game did not let me use anything else but my car just to look at. I am disappointed and furious.
Can I get the full game cause I paid
I have been charged 10$ to my car for this game, yet it still can’t get the full game, I’ve spent money on in game cars and I still don’t have the full game and if they wasn’t bad enough I can’t even play multiplayer or your game has 0 players
Error For Real
I assumed this was a reel in tic showing a race car clip as soon as I saw the car I knew the challenge was a beat up and get out even though it seemed as if it was on a freeway surrounded by newer cars...
I thought to myself, "now, THATS DIFFERENT" got to watch this...
Then suddenly it turned into some game talking about buy..."wellibdamned"
I'm 67 and what to do?
lol where's RollerDerby
Oh I just looked at it again and everything is plain as day except my eyes...

Interesting, but… 10$?!!
The game is great, I liked the physics, the graphics are reminiscent of 20x games, but paying $10 for a phone game?! 1 star. I hope the developers realize they've created something less than GTA and make the game completely free with paid skins and super cars like in all normal games.
Cellular Data!!!
I have low cellular data usage enabled on my iphone and this totally bypassed any permissions on first startup and used 700mb. I was on wifi it dropped signal for only a few seconds watching my connection in control center when it dropped WiFi I immediately closed the game. In the few seconds it was using my data (without permission) it ate almost a 1gig of service… how did it manage this??? Not sure & not happy.
On apples ios end it sure is absurd that games need be launched first not connected to wifi for the data off toggle option to appear in ios cellular settings. However on the games end absolutely no reason for it to have used 700mb in the brief moments my wifi was down.

Don’t download waste your 10gb data
Download 10gb and you get 30m time…
Other game let you play again and again but this game only gives 30m

Short game play
I downloaded this game and only got to play it for 30 minutes because it made me buy it after that.
Multiplayer
Game just crashes anytime I hit server browser, waste of 10$
Time limit
I don’t think it should be trial I think it should just be a free game, I have it on my PlayStation and I get it. It’s a good game and it should cost but on phone just 30 minutes at least improve how much time we get to make it at least five hours.
I bought the “ full game “ and it was indeed not the full game. Not a one time purchase. Scam
I bought this game and immediately fell in love with it. Everything about it was top tier. The graphics. The gameplay. Mechanics. Everything. And it IS controller compatible. Idk what others are talking about.? I literally play this game. Nonstop. For HOURS and it doesnt get boring. BUT !!!! Dude i bought the full game. I spent the 10 before the 30 minute trial had even expired. I Bought all the DLC dude i have all the receipts. I saved my info to the icloud. So id never lose it. Ive been playing for about 5 days now and out of nowhere the game closes and when i re-open it, it says “ times up “ and requires me to spend ANOTHER “one time” payment to unlock the full game..? Im honestly super heated. And i want my money back. All of it. Im going to buy the other version. That doesnt say “ try and buy” that wasnt advertised anywhere in the try and buy version. It also said nothing about a limited time AFTER you pay for the FULLLL GAAAMMEEEEE. ONNNEEE TIMME PURCHASE. like what .? Come on dog. I want a complete refund for all the dlc and try and buy. Because im going to spend another 10 on the other “ full “ version. Hopefully its not a scam too. Other than that. 10 star game. My son loves it. Funnest racing game ive played since Forza horizon. God honest opinion. Run me my bread.
$10 paywall after 30 minutes of playing
Games subpar at best, took forever to download, when it finally did download it requires you to download 21 additional files before you get to load into the actual game. Those took forever as well fyi. The game has decent mechanics at best and on top of all that you get a free trial for about 30 minutes of playing before everything gets put behind 10 dollar paywall. Don’t bother
gay

Make free
Can you plz make it free some people want to play the game but can’t because it’s expensive plz make it free
