    This game had a chance to refresh the stale arcade racing genre but it lacks depth, the career is just a sequence of senseless races without any kind of progression, the vehicle physics is "floaty", buggy and frustrating to control and the tracks are mostly plain highways going trough boring environments.

    4 is a poor result but this game doesn't feel AAA except for the menu and some parts of the presentation.
    I honestly don't see any reason to buy this game full price, but for the amount of time you will need to go trough the mildly boring campaign 10-15 bucks may be the right price to pick it up if you are really desperate to have a cheap Sega Rally to waste a week end on.    … Expand

    A 30fps arcade racer? It feels like a slideshow compared to GT sport or Forza. Not recommended.

    I paid $9.99 for the deluxe edition of this game. I feel like I overpaid by at least ( dollars.

When I rapidly turned the wheel on one side, I could see that driver in the game moved the wheel with approx. 300 - 500 ms delay making this game completely unplayable. I also double made sure that deadzones settings were set at value=0. After 30 minutes of constant fight with this game I tried Gran Turismo Sport where everything worked properly with low input lags as well as in other racing games I have. Avoid this game at all costs!… Expand

    i was hyped for this because I thought it was open world where I can drive around and do anything I want but its not. why can't you leave the car and steal another like in gta? a lot of missed opportunities with this one

    WOOF where do i start,
    the handling is awful break dont work shoots you in to the barrier ahead and most matches struggled to render certain car colours and 5 of the races I've played didnt even load my car in so i had to guess where i was driving

    As generic as generic gets. [May 2018, p.86]

    With its relatively realistic physics, Gravel is a game on the hard side. However, if you are looking for an arcade-like offroad race game, you should be able to appreciate this one.

    Intermittently fun, but not consistently hair-raising enough to keep you glued to the steering wheel. [Apr 2018, p.80]
