Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. This game is frustrating, difficult, and brilliant. It doesn't hold your hand. You can't just mash buttons to do a 360 flip; you have to actually learn the physics of the board. I respect that. In an era of 'auto-play' mobile games, True Skate demands skill. The visuals are aging a bit, and the monetization (paying for new parks) is a bit annoying, but the core 'feel' of the skating is unmatched. It’s more of a toy than a game, but it’s a high-quality toy.
