The only complaint is that I would love the option to spend SC on hints in the free skate challenges. It's easy to get stuck on finding the last tap grind feature and be unable to progress any farther through the challenges. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-06-19, version 2.10* Lets Goooo. One of the best arcade games ever with great updates. ### 5/5 — Pro skate Neon *2026-06-01* Как открыть эту карту? В достижениях есть не открытые очивки, но как получить не понятно. Подскажите? ### 5/5 — Skate city, New York *2026-05-24, version 2.00* This is the best game ever I can’t. I don’t know what to say. It’s just that it’s a very, very, very good game. But it’s always a good thing never give up like if you fall in the game don’t be like I hate this game. Don’t just try again. This is very five stars game. Bye-bye and this is my review ### 5/5 — Imogubtw *2026-05-17, version 2.00* Skate city ny is a really good name of I have no complaints about it but it would be really cool if they added a mode were the cops chase you and a mode were u can play with friends ### 5/5 — Gdgna *2026-05-16, version 2.00* Awesome ### 5/5 — Skate City NY *2026-05-15, version 2.00* Personally I think it’s one of the best mobile games.

Of every game that I’ve played in my entire life, by far I have to say that this game is well designed, the graphics are surprisingly great compared to everything else in the App Store, and the music is dope. I don’t understand why games for Mac usually suck, or lack innovation, but this game is seriously so good. I would recommend this for anyone who wants to take a break from life and escape. Thank you for making this so well. Aloha ;) ### 5/5 — Muito bom *2026-04-30* Muito bom o jogo, falta mais missões coloquem mais ### 5/5 — Sk8LyFE *2026-04-27, version 2.00* Yo!!!

Everyone else needs to go up a slope but the slope isn’t there for her, so she is significantly faster than other, and magically jumps to the first place no matter how fast others are going, making this level nearly impossible to reach three stars. It’s very mind boggling to see a two star out there among all the three stars. Will change the rating once this issue is fixed. **Developer response:** Hi AngryBirds287, Thanks for your feedback - we've fixed this issue for our next update which should go live on Dec. 4th.
