DON'T BUY THIS GAME If you are a fan of Trials and/or Far Cry, this game will disappoint you in ways that words cannot convey. This game is closer to a traditional Trials game than it is Far Cry but it fails to do ANY of the things a fun or challenging Trials game should. This is a glorified mini-game collection in the Trials engine with a few Easy - Medium Trials levels stapled onto many other gimmicks. All of...

a visually stunning game and a great soundtrack too, but man is the gameplay itself bad and clunky. not polished whatsoever... would not recommend.
I'm not giving this a negative review because it isn't solely a Trials game, but because everything OUTSIDE of that feels incredibly janky. Trying to get A+ grades on most of the courses feels like playing Russian roulette with physics. It's a damn shame because the story is unironically engaging, despite it being a parody.
