PureSkate 1+2 – Sports Game Review
PureSkate 1+2 is a Sports/Entertainment/Simulation game from Orbi Labs, first launched in 30th April 2012.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 3+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes PureSkate 1+2 Stand Out
Get ready to skate your heart out in the most realistic and intuitive skateboarding simulation ever made!
2011: PureSkate
2015: PureSkate 2
2024: PureSkate 1+2 !!!
Millions of downloads, and millions of sessions later, it’s time to take the best of the two and mash 'em together.
Never heard of it? No surprise, we’re an indy studio. Made by skaters, for skaters, with a focus on mechanics, stylish combos, all in homage to the great console skate games of the 90’s.
Enter PureSkate 1 PLUS 2. PureSkate 1 levels, with PureSkate 2 gameplay. And some bonuses thrown in for fun.
Free to play. No bucks, no gouging. An optional one-time purchase forever that allows you to unlock all levels. NOTE – it doesn’t unlock em all at once! You gotta earn that. Oh ya, this is no walk in the sketch park either. But it’s worth it.
Natural fingerboard control combined with a rich 3D view of your skater's world creates a fun and addictive skateboarding experience that is the first/second/and now third of it's kind.
'Your fingers are your feet' – watch as you control the skater by pushing, ollieing, and performing kicks, turns, grinds, slides, spins, and more! The control you have will blow you away, and will challenge you to think like a skater to combine big tricks and create killer, clean lines.
Features:
- Fine control over the skaters feet
- Full 3D skater and world
- Dozens of flip, rail, and grab tricks
- Link tricks together with manuals for sick combos (no reverts, those were just silly)
- Build your skills accomplishing dozens of goals (including collect the letters P U R E)
- One awesome level to explore and master
- Bonus points for gaps
- Awesome soundtrack, real sound effects
- Game Center leaderboards
- Bonus points for gaps

Community Insight:
This game is really fun we love it its a little hard But we got the hang of it.
The game is pretty good even though its free because other games like this you have to pay for it ,but there one thing we dont like are the graphics ,so hopefully they update the game to better graphics. :) o~0.
This game is so fun and we just love it and it is a free game and it is super fun and a great android game.
Iike the game but we dont like that you have To pay for the full game.
We opened up the game and went through all of the selections but when we clicked play to start skating it just took us back to our home screen! At first we thought, 'well maybe it s just our iPad cause it does that sometimes'. So we tried twice more and the same thing happened. So please fix this.
This game needs to be updated it crashes in like 3 seconds when we start it, just please we need this game back.
If you like mini skate boards you will like this but need update for IOS 11.
This is the best skateboarding Game in the App Store.
The game has good detail to it. Better graphics then most skate games we play. It's pretty hard so we like the fact it gives us a challenge. If people say it's easy we'll then good for them but to us this is hard and a good game.
You stupid wimps are complaining too much. It's supposed to be hard. If you want to do a 360 kick flip with a button, go get Visual Basic, learn to program a computer app, animate the player and add a frickin button. These people worked hard to make you a challenging game to play, and if you don't want it, DELETE IT.
This game is one of our favorites. Unlike the other games this was free. We recommend this game.
It is really fun…but the control are messed up or else it is really fun and worth getting…,have fun.
Play this game. It is fricken awesome.
Best skating game we've ever played and we've been playing them since 720 in the arcade. If you want to push a button and live out your pro fantasies, this isn't for you. This game is challenging (like skating) and you get to learn and master tricks instead of just commanding an avatar to do your bidding. The pushing option is great! It would be be better though if player could size and point the controls to their liking instead of just left or right side (we like to lead with our index finger). Great work.
We've been playing this game since it first came out. We absolutely love it. The tricks are pretty realistic. We wish it had more maps but we still find it a perfect game. We recommend it to everyone. Once you get the hang of it you won't stop playing.
We have played this game before and we really enjoy it but now that we have it on our phone we can't play it. We do realize how much time and effort they put in this but it would probably be able to get more downloads if it was compatible with IOSX and up.
Omg we lovvvvve this game but now a days when we play it always close out on us it's probably because this iPad we'd sooooooooooo old it dosnt even have a camera.
Whenever we do a kickflip in a tutorial it says in the backround kickflip succeeded but in front of that it says not quite retry.
Please add some of the parks and maybe one more player to give excitement to the user because he or she will get to try out some area that is new or try a new trick. This statement is meant for the free version of pure skate.
We see that this game could be really fun. But the thing is, the graphics are horrible and the controls are totally messed up. If you fix this, we think it will be really fun.
We're sure this would have been a great game…if only it had actually gotten past the loading screen. Every time we try to open the app, it plays the loading theme for like three seconds and then crashes. We thought this was an update bug, since we had not updated our phone since IOS 10.1. We updated our phone to IOS 10.1.1, but it still won't work. Please fix this soon. Thank you.
Very unresponsive controls. Also, very uncomfortable position for your fingers. Not fun.
The crashes wayyyyyy to much we can't even play.
The game never lets you actually play and it just keeps exiting out so if you want to play you have to spend three dollars. Also we don't want to have to buy the version because our mom and dad won't let us we want to be able to play the free version but always just exit out of the app so you can't play.
This is an awesome game, we've played it before but now it only works for three seconds or so then crashes we're using 6th generation iPod and iPhone six but it does the same for both PLEASE FIX THIS.
Our friend said it was a really awesome game and it looked really fun but we have tried to download it on two different devices and it crashes a few seconds after we open it.
The game wouldn't let us play For at least 2 fu*king seconds.
This game was TERRIBLE!!!! Every time we went onto it it glitched out and it is not our phone we have a great phone with NO problems. Please fix these glitches.
Please fix a bug where it crashes when it starts up.
We downloaded the game cause our friend said it was awesome so we got it on our iPod 6th gen and it crashes before it even starts up! We have iOS 10 so maybe that's the problem but we hope they fix this.
This by far the WORST skateboard game you can find on the App Store DO NOT BUY.
We get about 3 seconds and it crashes….skateboarding in real life is much better.
We HATE THIS GAME ITS STUPID AND TO HARD AND HAS WAY TO MANY GLITCHES we WISH THAT we COULD RATE IT NO STARS.
Just downloaded the app, opened it, works for the first three seconds then crashes. Pretty disappointed… We're using our iPod touch with the latest iOS update.
Game ever it's hard to control the graphics are awful the camra is a piece of crap.
Fucksneed poopcock leechsnooty beetoot sneedit callad.
This game is supper hard and STINKS.
Great game m name is brandon ross.
This game is actually a lot of fun but whenever we complete a run in career mode it crashes. Hey developers! A little help please.
We like it but they jut needs o make it easier to control. But other words it's fun.
We love skateboard games and this looked like a cool game. However while going thru training it proves harder than it should be. The spin moves are so awkward you complete them by pure luck. Grind moves are very simple but slides are just as difficult as spins. Would have loved this game if the simple wasn't impossible.
You can't make a trick it is so hard.
Oh our gosh this is 1 of e best games we've ever played except you should be able to coustimez your charter yep that's it but still a great game 5 stars.
Exelente juego, quizs no sea exactamente igual a la realidad pero es realmente adictivo. Su nivel de dificultad en cuanto a la ejecucin de trucos va aumentando cuando vamos avanzando! Lo recomiendo 100% PD no tuve ningn glitch ni en mi iPod touch ni en mi iPad 1.
Its an awesome app, the tricks are a little bit hard but we got used to it! Should definetly download it!! But the thing is it needs more stuff. Anyways best app everrr.
If we had the room, we'd give this game six and a half stars! Our username is ridiculous, us being under our moms account, but we're a little boy that loves to skate! This is our kinda game and to us is better than ours craft.
This app is not just like those other ones with cheap graphics and all of that stuff ! #good.
Good game very realistic and we like how we control the board like a fingerboard it's cool.
Do yourself a favor and get this app now.
The game is very fun it is hard at first but once you get used to it it is cool… We just wish there were more boards and you could customise your character.
