    If you are looking for a aqua moto arcade experience to play wherever you are and you can forgive its faults, this title can satisfy you especially due to the good water representation.

    Aqua Moto Racing Utopia wants to be the next Wave Race, but fails to deliver the experience in a few aspects.

    I consider Aqua Moto Racing Utopia to just be a sub-par release. Again, it’s not bad, it’s just not great. Maybe casual/younger race fans might find some enjoyment out of it, but don’t jump into this pool unless you find standing around in the shallow end to be fun.

    Aqua Moto Racing Utopia is a solid and fun, if unspectacular title. Hunt down the physical copy if you must, but it won’t break the bank on the eShop.

    Aqua Moto Racing Utopia initially appeals for being a rare water-based racer. Scooting around on your jet-ski often feels more like riding a bucking bronco than driving a vehicle, and that makes it stand out from regular landlocked racers. However, it's lacking several layers of finesse and balance, the presentation is deeply unappealing, and those aggressive water physics are a mixed blessing. We're just going to have to wait patiently for Nintendo to return to the Wave Race universe, aren't we?

    Unfortunately it doesn't do a successful job at presenting a memorable game, as its control is far from effective, its AI is often too aggressive and the game betrays its origins as something designed for mobile devices, rather than for gaming consoles.

    Great game for Switch! Gives me old feelings from Wave Racer. The party modes are awesome and really funny to play with friends and family.

You have races and you have stunt mode which consist of making stunts for points while keeping a multiplier active. I would have liked to see my opponents in the stunt mode but I guess you can´t have all. The water physics is really impressive and I feel like im driving a water scooter. It´s so much fun catching a big wave and making the big jump!… Expand

    critic reviews are very low rated but despite that the game is fun to play get past some courses easily but other courses and the controls cancritic reviews are very low rated but despite that the game is fun to play get past some courses easily but other courses and the controls can defeat you it gets a little clunky and the AI is beastly good screw up and there on you....
    once you know the course and have better gear the game is more fun modes tracks are fun mini games are a nice distraction but they should have more arenas for the fun hockey game which is a blast
    some tracks if not all were a challenge to me I'm Just lousy at race games but it the fun factor
    modes are limited and the tracks buoy passing race base system is annoying on some tracks I'm hoping for a buoy free mode so I can enjoy the tracks the handling is similar to wave race but can be awkward...hard to explain but I found fun in this game and my kids love playing it...so recommended if they add more modes fix the AI and add a buoy free mode I'm sure its a must buy for anyone    … Expand

    I think this game is pretty decent, it is a jet-ski racing game, it could have more customization options but it is pretty good
