More about SkateBIRD

Steam's global achievement data puts about 3 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 5-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 395 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 6 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written September 2021 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,597 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 626 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 74 percent of the 277 reviews written there were positive, against 85 percent overall, and those are 43 percent of everything written about it.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 5 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

The controls are a little wonky, an upbeat soundtrack and an irresistibly wholesome vibe, it's impossible not to smile while playing. This isn't about hardcore realism, it's about having fun, landing scrappy tricks, and helping out your...
