Only if you are a faithful fan of skateboarding or skateboarding, meet the legend Tony Hawk. And if you've never ridden on a board, you may have played one of their video games for different video consoles. Well then, if you were missing some electronic entertainment about this sport, Tony Hawk presents you with his latest video game. This time for Android and iPhone. That's right Tony Hawk's Skate Jam By the way, it's free.
This is a skate game that seems to want to reminisce those Pro Skates from the old PlayStationThe difference is not so much in the graphics as in the gameplay. And it is that doing it on a touch screen is quite orthopedic. But the result is being able to enjoy tricks, jumps and grinds anytime, anywhere. Of course, you have to develop technique to be able to get the most out of this title.
In the first minutes of the game we find ourselves before a tutorial to learn the basics. Thanks to him we will know how to control our character to guide him in the direction we want with the left virtual stick. To do the jumps and tricks, however, we must press one of the buttons at the bottom right of the screen. Here is the difficulty, since we lose part of the vision with our hands, in addition to being complex to chain tricks as it happened in the old Tony Hawk games. But what has been said: practice makes perfect.
In this game we can jump to do ollies or gain momentum to perform some aerial trick.These tricks are divided between tricks themselves and grabs But, since they are independent buttons, it is difficult to combine them. One thing after another. Of course there are also the grinds, to walk along any seam or railing on the stages. Elements and tricks that help us score points to complete the missions or fill the eagle meter, with which we metamorphose into the real Tony Hawk.
Of course the game is very complete in terms of character customization. We can even choose between three types of skating: Street, park and vert, and a good number of boards with their own characteristics to choose the one that best suits our way of skating Or the different tests and levels that we find in the story mode. Of course, you better do and chain many tricks or you will not get all the experience points necessary to unlock and buy the tables.
The games in career mode are distributed over objectives to be met in less than two minutes Of course you can replay each level every time that are needed to complete these missions. The good thing is that there are a large number of maps where you can discover all kinds of jumps and places to skate.
The worst points of the game are the animations and graphics, which seem really taken from PlayStation 1, the gameplay and the poor translation into Spanish. Don't be scared if you don't understand a phrase or command. It has probably been translated by a bot with little understanding.
