Extreme off-road racing in the vein of early Dirt games, with impressively diverse scenery, surprisingly wide range of licensed cars and disappointingly poor audio. [05/2018, p.49]

Gravel is a very fun game, recommended for lovers of arcade racing. It has personality and fuses classic and current elements. Technical errors are its most negative characteristic, and neither is it too long a game.

Gravel offers arcade racing fun at a high level, but can't quite compete with games like Dirt 4 or Forza Horizon 3.

Attempting to blur the line between arcade and simulation, Gravel feels like it isn't sure what it wants to be. While offering a solid gameplay experience, it doesn’t bring anything new to the table. More disappointingly, its career mode is a bit of a hit and miss: the series of circuits and sprint races to face “masters” of given disciplines was a cool idea, but incentives to advance are lacking.

It’s functional and fun enough in small bursts, but arcade racers have come a long way over the past two decades and Gravel doesn’t bring any new ideas to the paddock.

It’s no wonder you can’t find opponents to play Gravel online — the single-player campaign doubles as an excellent deterrent in this low-budget imitation of DiRT 2.

Flat, uninteresting arcade racing game full of mud, sand, gravel and snow. Gravel is constantly on the swing - the graphics can be astonish you at one moment, in the second it disgusts you. The riding model is funny in one race, while in the other it shows how it’s unfinished. The creators concentrated on a lot of things at the same time, but they managed to finish just a few of them. Not worth the full price, worth only with the Christmas discount.
