I can't recommend this game in its current state. Not because of the UI bugs (you can work around them) but because of the balance that is just wrong at different levels. Pros: [list] [*]Beautiful interface, especially for an idle clicker game. [*]Very fun gameplay (until progression becomes stagnant). [*]Booster packs are cool and easy enough to obtain through simple gameplay. [*]Achievement bonuses are appreciated, though a bit bland. [/list] Cons: [list] [*]My biggest complaint: Additive bonuses make for very slow progression after the initial sprint. A +15% cash bonus is nice when you're at 100%, but once you reach 5000%, that +15% amounts to a 0.3% boost, pathetic. [*]Progress is so slow beyond Bronze League III that the game quickly becomes repetitive. [*]Only two of the five skills are really worth anything, i.e. allow you to progress further when used. [*]Premium currency (diamonds) obtained at a dismally slow rate after the initial sprint. [*]Some crew members are literally useless because they buff one of the three irrelevant skills. [*]One crew member is completely broken: Ivy. The difference between having her and not having her is humongous. [*]Because all Bonus Cash buffs are additive, only a few crew members really are useful, the rest give lackluster buffs like increasing nitrous capacity. [*]Firing crew members gets ridiculously expensive beyond the third member, but then if they were all useful maybe we wouldn't need to fire them. [*]Legendary boosters buffing skills means only two of the five boosters are worth anything. [*]Car part performance scaling makes it so improving the early ones with boosters quickly becomes irrelevant, e.g. once you reach the Clutch part, you can literally forget about the Engine's performance, it'll never be relevant again. [*]Gang UI is buggy, not refreshing correctly, with a very sub-par chat interface (which on a PC port should be available directly from the main UI through a keybind, usually the Enter key). [*]Swipe mechanic not always working right, feels clunky. [*]"Fast lanes" (those you need to swipe for) bonuses are very lackluster especially given the low frequency at which they appear. (best bonus is Super Fuel activation, by far, though it is useless due to the next con below since that means you're already most of the time at maximum speed and Super Fuel does nothing) [*]There's no point in trying to push further than the point where you start slowing down, because that's the point of diminishing returns for Credit, Gang contribution and Collector coins. If gains scaled up, it might be worth it to spend an extra hour or two to break a wall. [*]I could probably find more balance related cons if I felt like taking the time... [/list]

Hi all, I got 951 hours of gameplay, some idle some active. I have the best car, all crewmembers maxed out, 37 million crew credits in balance which are useless and all upgrades and crew mebers are +15 to +17 levels. All boots can run up to two hours active and have only a cooldown of max 10 min. And in total I reach 87750% bonus cash(you can check this in settings game statistics) Why I telling you all of this you may think? I am not doing this to show you how cool I am, I am telling this to prevent anyone to repreat my mistake and invest into this game! The game is completely unbalanced and unfair in its current stage, it is clearly pay to win and by no means you can compete ever without sinking cash into this. There is no way to reach the last two updates of the car as the ecomomy is utterly broken. The gap between piston and ABS is too big and a single Piston upgrade from 300+ will take you hours to reach, to reach ABS you likely will have to run the game for 1 year at its current balance and this with my stats. The game gives you the illusion of a Diamond League which you can never reach, highest you can get at the current stage of the game is about Gold League 3 Tournament 1 or 2. I saw noone in any tournament reaching much higher than this and I usually place 1st or 2nd. In its current stage of Early Access I would say this game is a money grab from the devs and I want to warn anybody to fall for it like it did, as this game is quite addictive at start. Last but not least I hope the devs will listen to this critics and improve the game! I am also open for a discussion or dialog. best regards, Me.
