it plays like a retro title from ps2, there isn't much variety overall, it's a nice timewaster, you can unlock and equip some stunt move to do while air time but other than that it's a standard racing game.
the water physics is really convincing while keeping an Arcade feel to it. it's usually bundled for 1$ so to me it was worth it

Have not played a jetski game in forever. Riptide GP 2 was pretty good. I remember playing these games in the 90s and it has not come a long way but how much can you really do with jetskis. I still enjoyed it and brought back alot of memories. Would recommend. Can't beat the price.

A little grindy, but not a ton. Graphics, controls, music, and UI are all great. Most importantly, it's a fun racing game. I highly recommend it.
