as you jump over obstacle courses
with varied levels of difficulty.
However, there’s a dedicated tutorial
menu that allows new and old players
to learn new tricks, which is helpful
as you advance through the levels.
Racing games are generally about
how fast can you reach the finish
line, but Trials Rising is primarily
about reaching safely across. You will
crash, and going by how difficult
some levels can be, you will crash
hard. But one button level reset
makes it easy to go again without
experiencing any loading time.
Trials Rising may seem like a
challenging game, but races finish in
under two minutes, and they are just
as fun and addictive. The levelL

Trials Risingdesigns are excellent with visually
rich backgrounds that add to each
level’s fun factor.
Races are spread across the globe
that unlocks as you level up in the
game. Trials Rising also emphasises
on the social element, that makes
competing with international players
and local co-op easy and fun. The
Tandem Bike mode is a must-play if
you’re looking for some hilarity
where two players control the same
motorcycle, trying to balance the
jumps and throttle.
Trials Rising offers a lot of
customisation, however, it’s
restricted to cosmetic changes. Every
win gives players a loot box that
reveals some kind of customisation
or stickers that can enhance the
looks of the in-game character or the
vehicle.
For players who get bored with
the game’s built-in tracks, there’s adetailed Track Central that allows the player’s
imagination to run wild with their own fantasy track, or
play other fan-made ones.
Trials Rising is a game that stays true to its roots. It has
the right balance of fun and difficulty that makes it
addictive to play.
