SlideToPlay gave it a 2 out of 5, commenting " Burning Tires 3D is a good game for younger players, but anyone who can see an R-rated movie will get mighty bored mighty fast. "[1] PocketGamer gave the iPhone version 5/10 writing "Uninspiring level designs and unadventurous gameplay conspire to spoil the few moments of fun this game tries to pack in".,[2] 6/10 for the mobile version writing "A pretty 3D racing game that unfortunately plays as bad as it looks good",[3] and 5/10 for the Android version writing "Caught between cutesy kart racing and something more sober, Burning Tires fails to satisfy either camp with bland design, poor handling, and frustrating physics".[4] AllAboutSymbian said "While Burning Tires is a skillful game, with some great choices made in the physics and UI engine, it is missing a little spark to make it a truly great mobile racing game. Would I recommend it? If you're a racing nut, then yes – there's a lot on offer here, but it's all under the surface. For a casual player looking for something in this genre I'd probably suggest this as a second or third choice."[5]
