A very underrated gem, it's made for Kung Fury type of fans

This game is very underrated mainly because it's misunderstood. As a fan of the other Trials games I tried this one and it became my favorite. It has the basic Trials mechanics and adds some more like shooting (yes, while riding a motorbike), grappling hook and also non-bike segments on foot - the last one isn't perfect but it's okay. At a few points in the game there is also a jetpack mechanic intoduced, as well as some RC car sections which are very fun.

It's made for fans of the over-the-top action, with 80s retro aesthetics and it has electronic synthwave and similar type of music by Power Glove.

The story is a kind of continuation of the FarCry: Blood Dragon game, although this game is nothing like the FPS game. We play as the kids of sergeant Rex "Power" Colt and Dr. Darling. They are kind of secret black-ops, mark VI cyber commandos, who are tasked with various missions in settings like Vietnam War 4, neon filled Miami, adventures in searching for the Lost Grail, missions in space, on Mars, fighting alien bugs, evil power rangers and whatnot. When you look at the main menu and the additional RC car mission (accessible by selection the RC car box in the room) you can see that the whole game is made like it came out of the imagination of two kids who play pretend and go on secret missions.

If you like this kind of stuff the game is for you.
