Roll7 have kept the controls simple it’s learning how to execute flawless runs and combinations to rack up high-scoring multipliers that will take the player time – and potentially the odd damaged controller – to master. The game did a great job of equipping me with the tools required for success further down the line, while also getting me used to the overall style of play. I never once felt out of my depth and with a little patience and persistence, I was gleefully throwing combinations of tricks, grinds and manuals. Timing is crucial and it goes without saying that a controller is a must.įortunately, Olli Olli 2’s learning curve is expertly balanced. To a newcomer these first stages can still feel pretty intense –navigating from the start to the finish of a particular stage feels like anything but a cakewalk early on, as getting to grips with the mechanics of flip tricks, grinds and launches is a necessity for progression. Gameplay-wise Olli Olli 2 throws the player right into the thick of things, but Roll7 have been thoughtful enough to provide stabilisers in the form of the game’s initial amateur courses. Each world has its own distinct – and crazy – design features each level features an assortment of nefarious obstacles, stunts and challenges to overcome. There are amateur and pro versions of each level, the latter of which are unlocked after the player successfully completes the five challenges each individual level has to offer. Olli Olli 2 is essentially comprised of five different worlds, with each world featuring a selection of levels.

Roll7 brings their brand of retro-style arcade skating back with a bang in this highly stylised, highly addictive, sequel to the 2014 title Olli Olli.
