About Skateboard Master

Skateboard Master puts you on a board and sends you through a series of levels, each with its own problem to solve. What the game tests is control: how flexibly you can steer your character through each level's problem.

The whole game is steered with one input, the mouse on a computer or your finger on a phone. Moving it is how you guide the skater, so each level is really a test of touch rather than of memorizing buttons.

Each new level poses a different problem, so expect to keep adjusting the sensitivity of your control as you go. That makes it a game you learn by feel, one level at a time. It is played in portrait view and supports phones and tablets as well as computers.

How to play Skateboard Master

  1. Use the mouse, or your finger on a touch screen, to control the skater.
  2. Guide the skater along the course.
  3. Adjust how sharply you steer to suit each section.
  4. Work out what each level's problem is before you commit.
  5. Solve the level to move on to the next challenge.

Tips and tricks

  • Try making small, smooth movements rather than sudden ones.
  • Look ahead on the course rather than at the board, so you can see what is coming and prepare for it.
  • When a level keeps beating you, try it again with gentler, more careful movements and see whether that helps.
  • Play a few levels just to get used to how the skater responds to your mouse or finger.
