A skateboarding game set in the underworld
Skate Story is a skateboarding game where the player takes on the role of a demon in the underworld. The core mechanic of the game is that of a typical skateboarding game, such as Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2 or Skate 3, but against a supernatural setting.
The story of the game has the player skating through the various areas of the underworld, using speed and tricks to destroy demons and save tortured souls. The game features a somewhat abstract art style, as well as representations of the strange creatures that inhabit the underworld.
Skate through hell
In Skate Story, the player takes on the role of a demon who is “made of glass and pain.” The player must skate through the various levels of hell to reach the end and escape. Along the way, they will kill demons, save tortured souls, and carry out other tasks on their quest to escape.
A skateboarding simulator
While Skate Story’s plot involves a strong supernatural element, the core skating mechanics of the game are solid, meaning it should appeal to players who are more interested in the skating aspect of the game than the story. Players can perform a range of tricks, including grinding, ollies, kickflips, and more. Failing to land a trick causes the glass demon player to smash to pieces.
A skating game with a story
Skate Story’s skating mechanics may make the game a reasonable skating simulator, but it is the story and setting that is likely to be the main factor in appealing to players. The visuals are also quite unique in the world of skating games, featuring far more color and unusual architecture than would commonly be found in other skating games.
