    Urban Trial Tricky is a fun take on a format Ubisoft successfully popularised some time ago. It’s suite of different unlocks and customisation options makes it a wild ride well worth taking, even if you’ll blow through stages relatively quickly.

    With easy to pick up and play action that looks great on Switch, Urban Trial Tricky is a nice and stylish bike trick game with just enough variety in level design to keep things interesting.

    Urban Trial Tricky takes the gameplay of its predecessors and adapts it wonderfully to a trick-oriented formula. If you're the kind of gamer who enjoys trying to perfect their score as you perform all sorts of cool tricks then I recommend checking it out.

    Urban Trial Tricky is a biking game where your goal is to perform tricks and earn points. With a fair amount of cool and quirky tricks you can perform, this game will make you grin. It gets repetitive, so it's best enjoyed in short bursts, but even so, you'll only get a handful of hours out of it.

    the game is presented under three types of runs: 1. timed arena figures (like Tonyhawk pro skater). 2. tracks to be run against the clock. 3.the game is presented under three types of runs: 1. timed arena figures (like Tonyhawk pro skater). 2. tracks to be run against the clock. 3. phases where the game dictates the figures to be performed ... and a maximum must be done before the time runs out.

    someone told me that the commands did not respond correctly for the figures ... but you should know that if you did not understand correctly when you had to enter the commands for the figures, during a jump or a wheelie, well actually, they don't come out. namely that there is a very short period of time after the entry of the jump command or if you enter the command of figure ... well it does not come out. but after taming the thing it's ok.

    and actually the game is quite permissive in terms of physics. But I can't see it as a flaw. I even find that it contributes to the fun of the game.

    the game looks pretty short. in my opinion those who really like scoring will find their account ... for others, well it may not be worth the investment ..

    however, the game is pretty good. certainly he has a very cartoon DA but it is assumed. it's clean. it's colorful, it's fluid. There are some slow motion effects when we pass specific points (like the big donut we see in the trailer) which I'm not a fan of but good. I did not see a glaring difference on my TV from the living room. (it's a Switch game ...)

    there are no loads between two runs (or if we restart a run) which is a definite plus.

    there is no multiplayer mode, nor circuit editor.
    the translation of the objectives is sometimes wrong, when it is not completely missed or in another language ...

    I think that, despite all these faults I will have fun on it ... because the game is fun.

    so for my part, I would classify the game around 7. which is not bad. but not great either.

    I hope that the developers will lay an update. (for translations, the very small delay in the input of the tricks commands, and maybe add a little content ...) the game could become very good.
