    They have done an amazing job of re-creating the intense thrill of being out in the ocean in large surf. I know from experience. The very first time I started a session with the game I got butterflies in my stomach.

    It's really the only truly fun surfing game I have experienced in the last 10 years!

    From the music to the finer details, TransWorld Surf allows you to really immerse yourself in the environment. The music soundtrack is very well done and probably one of the best I have seen in any game.

    If you’re a true surfer, I would think that this game would be a must have. People who enjoy other “board” games will also rate this game very high.

    TransWorld Surf isn't all bad, but there are more than a few problems that prevent it from being a really good game.

    Admitedly it is a tough assignment making a surfing game fun, but here I don't think they succeeded.
