Early Access Review
An easier alternative to My Summer Car with some issues. While the game is a lot of fun at first when you're still exploring all the gameplay elements, it quickly gets stale once you figure out the main moneymaker activities and have to start grinding them out to get access to most of the end-game stuff. Progress is also gated behind befriending the various residents of the island which only involves talking to them every day and giving them gifts, basically you have to incorporate talking to every NPC into your daily schedule in order to progress the game and at some point it starts to feel annoying.

The car handling feels great, but I experienced a lot of issues with car physics bugging out in the middle of a turn and sending me into the stratosphere, this can result in having to reload your save and lose the entire day of progress, which is really annoying when it happens at the end of the day. The world feels empty and doesn't have much to do apart from driving around, doing jobs and racing, it could definitely use some more interactive elements or more NPCs to make it feel more alive.

Overall it's a fun game for a few hours but get very grindy later on. If you like chore focused games then you'll most likely enjoy it but I cannot recommend it to everyone.
