From GameWatcher: "Overpass is for a certain type of sadist, and it’s been awhile since a game made me want to stop playing it as quickly as possible. It might have its polish and intent, but the mechanics they serve are frustrating. Perhaps everything I mention makes the game all the more interesting, a game that isn’t for noobs like me and something that would sit comfortably between Surgeon Simulator or Getting Over It. But this makes for a niche game that will bug anyone else. I get the appeal, but it’s simply not fun."
Blake Hawthorn of GameGrin reviews Overpass, writing: "Overpass is a racing game with a difference. This isn’t like other racing games where you compete against 16 other racers and attempt to cross the finish line first; Overpass instead has you trying to compete on the leaderboards for the fastest time on a course, with the opponent being the course itself and it is a worthy foe."
XBA says: A racing game that defies the genre and will no doubt frustrate, but has a solid foundation.
Overpass forces players to master true-to-life terrain physics, as well as the unique characteristics of the game’s myriad of vehicle offerings. If you’re like me and you are willing to take the time to grind through races, challenges, improve your gear, and make more money with each race, you may grow to love Overpass.
