Reception[change | change source]

Top Gear: Stunt School Revolution received mixed reviews from critics according to the aggregator website Metacritic.[4] Critic David Ruddock from the Android Police website compares SSR with "the same bad hairstyle of Jeremy Clarkson", and also calls it "an unabashed pile of feces", noting that the management in it is terrible, some tricks are too simple, and some are too complicated.[5] He also notes that trying a trick "trying a trick eats up a pass, which prevents you from playing the game for hours on end (unless you pay for additional passes), which can lead to an aneurysm, ulcer, or other stress-related illness," and that the usefulness of some parts of the car upgrade is inexplicable.[5] Of the advantages, he notes the graphics, which, in his opinion, "is not bad for a modern mobile game."[5]
