    The Roll7 team have achieved an original greatness with Rollerdrome across the board: original concept, 80s nostalgia music and art—augmented with super fluid mechanics and gameplay.

    It’s an incredible sport and action game, with fun lore pieces to ponder while you’re not catching air, grinding lips and shotgunning opponents. To put it simply, don’t miss out on Rollerdrome.

    Rollerdrome is beautiful to watch and satisfying to play. I would easily consider it to be an encapsulation of what makes games special. It has gameplay that is challenging but rewarding. There is an adequate level of assists to turn on for those not looking to be beaten down too much. And there's a level of replayability that can satisfy the perfectionists and score hunters. If it came packed with a story that took a few more chances it could have reached a near-perfect state. I'm still left feeling that this will lead to further adaptations of the action sports formula, but at the very least it's a game that knows what it wants to be and delivers exactly that.

    Rollerdrome’s moment-to-moment action is tight and feels fluid - so far so Roll 7 - but it feels like a real step up for the studio in the way that Rollerdrome has presented itself both in terms of the game’s world building and visual identity, but also the UI and story underpinning everything: Rollerdrome is dense and compact, like a diamond.

    Rollerdrome is a small product and the low price does not fully justify the speed with which you can reach the credits. Despite being designed to be replayed several times, the Roll7 title does not have the necessary prerequisites to encourage users to spend a lot of time in the available levels or thanks to the endgame mode. That said, we are talking about a splendid pastime with a very effective core gameplay, capable of driving crazy even those who are not used to approaching experiences of this type.

    With easy-to-grasp (but tricky to master) extreme sports, over-the-top arena combat, and a sublime audio-visual aesthetic, Rollerdrome deserves its place in the pantheon of 70s sci-fi sports fiction.

    Rollerdrome is about getting lost in a giddy gameplay trance. As the hypnotic electro pulsed with each turn of the half-pipe and slow-mo bullets tapered out of a well-timed flip, I was grinning like a goon. Yet where OlliOlli World offered a bountiful buffet of levels to grind across, Rollerdrome’s stingy stage selection left me hungry. Much like a lockdown fad, Rollerdrome offers a thrilling way to pass an afternoon or few, but once you’ve got your kicks, only the dedicated will still be donning their skates.

    Lets start by saying that you can get through the main campaign in about 3-4 hours.
    That being said this game has a lot of replayability.    Lets start by saying that you can get through the main campaign in about 3-4 hours.
    That being said this game has a lot of replayability.
    This is an arena shooter but with Max Payne Slow mo and on roller skates.
    At first the movement can seem a tad janky but once you start flowing with the movement it is a blast.
    Never has movement since Titianfall 2 been this satisfying.

    The graphics are cell shaded and this gives a very distinct look to the game, soundtrack is phenomenal and suits it very well.

    The story is told through text as well as narration (Through radios, etc) and you get the feeling that your a small cog in something bigger.

    Overall this game is a 10/10 for me and so far my top game of 2022!    … Expand

    This is a very fun and stylish game, I was completely sucked into the world of the sport!
    I didn't pay much attention to the story the first    This is a very fun and stylish game, I was completely sucked into the world of the sport!
    I didn't pay much attention to the story the first time round, I was just focused on getting to the action quickly, but then I went back and read everything and it was really cool putting the story together.
    You get into a real rhythm while playing, and feels like a badass.

    PRO:
    - That soundtrack is brilliant
    - Unique graphics
    - Neat gameplay, not too complicated to understand
    - Plenty of challenge in later levels
    - Single player so no hackers or screaming kids

    CON:
    - Not long enough (but to be fair it was a lower price game, but would be good to have more story and levels / gameplay modes)    … Expand

    Roll7, известная 2 частями 2D-челлендж игр OlliOlli, внезапно выдаёт уже второй проект за пол года, теперь в полноценном 3D    7,4/10

    Roll7, известная 2 частями 2D-челлендж игр OlliOlli, внезапно выдаёт уже второй проект за пол года, теперь в полноценном 3D пространстве, и, знаете, получилось весьма достойно, настоящий никем незамеченный бриллиант игровой индустрии 2022.
    Если переизобрести геймплей скейтборд-раннера в 3д пространстве у них особо не получилось, по моему мнению, OlliOlliWorld сильно уступала по увлекательности OlliOlli 2, а также обладала достаточно посредственным визуалом,
    И вот, даже он, Малополигональный Целшейдинговый, в их новой игре - Rollerdrome, выглядит чуть более симпатично и красочно, хотя вроде бы он остался без изменений,
    Итак, на самом деле, авторы придумали достаточно простую, но всё же гениальную формулу, дать Тони Хоуку возможность включать слоу-мо, как в макс пейне, вместе с оружием, которое перезаряжается только во время исполнения трюка, визуально заменить скейт на ролики, и расставить по карте статичные или телепортирующиеся цели, которые будут мешать вам свободно кататься по круговому "дрому",
    Всё это приправлено соусом антиутопии в 2030-ом году, что-то типо мира голодных игр, где существует подобный "шутерный" чемпионат, и вы, естественно, должны победить в его финале, чтобы закончить игру, на моё удивление, каждый из 4 этапов соревнования, разделён микроскопическими заскриптованными уровнями от 1-ого лица, где вы можете побродить и почитать немного лора игры,
    Например, в начальной раздевалке вы можете полистать обучающие слайды на проекторе или найти листовку о призыве вступить в ряды местного сопротивления,и.. вот такие мелочи меня всегда очень цепляют, когда, например, в чисто геймплейную челлендж-игру добавляют немножко сюжета (вспомните тот же Portal), но, к сожалению, тут ни к чему эти записки про сопротивление не приводят, просто напишут, что "всех посадили", зачем вообще было тогда делать эти "сюжетные" секции, какие-то разговаоры за дверьми ещё, походу это просто красивый визуальный штрих, сюжета тут не ищите,
    А вот в плане геймплея к игре практически нет претензий, я почти что не нашёл никаких проблем в балансе, игра достаточно хардкорная для людей, которым, не особо даются игры типо "Tony Hawk", но ничего невозможного, я вот никогда не любил такие игры, но возможность поиграть в динамичные перестрелки заставляла меня иногда выполнять необходимые трюки, и, даже стратегически продумывать от каких противников надо избавляться в первую очередь..
