    Tries to mix arcade style gameplay with controls that aim for a more 'genuine' experience that are initially intuitive, but challenging to master.

    A refreshingly new entry into the genre that foregoes button-mashing memorization, replacing it with a well-designed, extensive, progressive control scheme that is very rewarding.

    The sheer amount of content and intuitive control scheme makes Skate It a great option for any skating game fan.

    In the end, Skate It for iPhone greatly improves upon the already impressive game that was found on the DS a year and a half ago.

    It's average, its standard, its borderline moderate. It's kind of a generic medium regular.

    A fresh idea that just does not pan out.

    Comes with several tricks, stages and challenges, but the controls are too cumbersome to be fun. Skateboarding enthusiasts will find in the game a lot of interesting things, while all others should look elsewhere.

    Skate It takes the good work of the Nintendo DS version and effectively jams it into the iPhone with little concern for control complexity, yielding a disappointing and frustrating skateboarding simulation.

    If Skate 3 is a successful trick run, then Skate It is the ultimate bail. The gameplay doesn't click and the visuals never draw you in to a real skateboarding experience.
