I got the chance to review a very different app then what I am used too for the iPad. It’s called Flip Riders. It may be different but it’s a lot of fun!
There are 5 fun characters that you can choose from. They are Maverick, the fearless Daredevil; Shadow, the stealth Ninja; Light Rider, a cybernetic phenomenon; Dixie, the rebel renegade; and, Mimi, the adventurous aristocrat.
In the game you will be doing wheelies, back flips, front flips and many other tricks along the way and try to beat your best time or your high score! Master the FLIPS and movements of each character to get more control of the game. Enjoy fantastic animations, cool graphics and funny crashes! FLIP RIDERS features hours of enjoyable game play and superb stunts in striking worlds such as Who wants Desert?, Life’s a Beach, Forest Run, Hill Belly, Lava Land, and, In-Hell, Ex-Hell.
The game does take a little getting used to, mainly the controls. But once you have mastered it you are in for a very fun game! I couldn’t put it down. Hunter tried playing it as well but it’s going to take him a little bit more time to get used to it. But who doesn’t love doing tricks and having a great time? I love watching motocross on TV and this let’s me be apart of that world in a little way.
