The core game is fun, the surfing feels good, and it had enough of a grind to keep me coming back.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Teaches beginners well, and being a time trial game, allows for a high skill ceiling with a lot of replay-ability.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
5 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Absolutely recommend if you want to get into surf or just want to play with some friends or even compete as there are a few competitive players on this game currently.
