App Profile: The Ramp.

Stop eating my reviews

Rating: 4/5

If you’re looking for something to relax to or keep yourself busy for a few minutes, this is a decent option. But, I wish there was more to it. Yes, it’s a minimalist game that does what it says, but there seems to be so much potential for it to be more. The core gameplay is great, but I do feel like after you’ve puttered around the 4 maps for a good amount of time trying out different lines, it gets a bit stale. I love the big ramp as its the only map that scrolls at all. Having bigger maps with more to explore would keep the game cozy but open up more lines and possibilities. The second bowl map could do with being larger as it’s annoying to try and make some of the connections. Still, I find myself coming back to it as the gameplay itself is quite good.

This is a perfect iPhone game that provides a perfect amount of rest and relaxation from the stress of life without sucking you in until you feel like you’ve wasted away hours of valuable time controlling a tiny man on a skateboard on your phone. I see tons of reviews providing a medley of suggestions, trying to add features or expand the game in general. To that I say, why not download any other skateboarding game that is open world and lower quality to waste your time away for hours. This game does what it is MEANT to do: be a “minimalist skateboarding” game. It is the most pleasing to look at, the physics are great, and it is very self contained, which ensures that this game is simply for you to enjoy a period of relaxation rather than to waste your time; nothing more. This is the only game I have downloaded on my phone because it helps me productively rest and is easy to get off of while still being super fun in the moment. (Also, 3 dollars for awesome new maps to enjoy as long as you want is fine … how many of you routinely spend over 3 dollars on coffee every day without thinking twice?)

I don’t normally leave reviews but I thought this was worth it… I’ve tried lots of skateboarding games and this one was definitely the best. The gameplay is really fun and satisfying and the graphics are great too. The music is also another touch that makes this game even better. I do think that this game has a lot of potential, more tricks and levels would be fun. Being able to customize your character and board would also be another great touch. Overall it’s a great minimalist game but with a few touches would definitely make it great
