“Good game, awesome music, the slide games were very fun, but it's clear I didn't like the ending.”
“The graphics, music, minigames, and simple yet engaging storyline all come together beautifully in this game. It's a great game to spend a few evenings with.”

“Anyone who does not recommend the game has not finished it. Not only do I think that's unfair, but also fails to provide genuine feedback. I've finished the game, and as an avid Road 96 lover, I can recommend it…”

“4/10 Sadly very disappointing. The Story writing isn't good and while some new Gameplay elements are nice to have, they aren't really that great. Overall the game feels like it has been made by an entirely different…”

“After finishing Road 96, I had high expectations for Mile 0, but honestly, I’m pretty disappointed. I played for about 2 hours and had no clue what I was supposed to do. It felt chaotic, with no clear direction, just…”
“Kanoa Ranks: 8/10 NOT AS BAD AS EVERYONE SAYS!!! A little buggy & cheesy at times for sure, but I actually really enjoyed this. It is definitely different from Road 96, but I think it works well as a prequel. The story…”

“The prequel to ROAD 96, a game that I recommend, as long as you approach it with low expectations, since, as you might guess from the other reviews, it does not do justice to the main game. Does that make it THAT bad? No, in my opinion. The story isn't bad, it contributes to…”
— a player, Steam review · 4 hrs played“Enough good prequel of Road 96, music bumps, cool surfing. If you liked original "Road 96", you should try to play it too. Don't expect this game to be as cool as the original "Road 96" but you'll get some positive emotions and experience in any case”
— a player, Steam review · 9 hrs played“Road 96: Mile 0 When I first bought this game, someone told me I’d be better off getting a refund. I truly wish I had listened to that advice. I can't recall the exact price—maybe two dollars or less during a sale—and I only bought it because I was a huge fan of the first game.…”
