What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Graphics are typical of a 2018 game, and it looks great on modern hardware.
From a presentation and progression perspective, Gravel feels like a PS2/Xbox-era game - You unlock new events, cars, and liveries when you complete events.
The online mode is a ghost town, and short of roping a friend into playing with you or perhaps camping out in the lobby all day, you're not going to see any multiplayer action.
Despite this, once you unlock some of the more performant vehicles, many events even at this difficulty can be pretty easy with most assists off (I left ABS on and TCS to low just because I'm using a controller).
Whilst they aren't realistic Forza-levels of audio quality, they are still pretty good, and represent the cars very well, especially with those that are turbo-charged compared to naturally aspirated (no turbocharger or supercharger), and you can tell the difference between them.

Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
