I thoroughly enjoyed OlliOlli World, especially the fact that its gameplay remains instinctual yet challenging which allows anyone to have fun whether you merely want to skate or aim for the top of the leaderboards. Plus, its trippy visuals and music are spot-on.

I really like OlliOlli World, but I dislike both how I played it and what it becomes. It’s whimsical and relaxed, propelled by vibes and an incredibly addicting gameplay loop, until it isn’t.

OlliOlli once again surprises players with a very attractive title, both playable and visual, thanks to its change of register towards a "hippie" and happy style. Despite its appearance, it is still a title as demanding as the previous ones and requires a lot of practice to master each of its sections. With more than 70 circuits to play and enormous replay value, OlliOlli World becomes a must.

Given the overall lack of sports-oriented titles on the Switch in general, let alone from indie developers, it’s always a blessing to get something new to check out on the system...

OlliOlli World shows itself as the magnum opus of a team that knows exactly what they are doing, with super solid gameplay and original visuals, all with a creativity and variety that make this one of the most fun arcade games in recent times. A nice surprise in a month full of great games.

OlliOlli World combines different genres to offer an accelerated and compelling experience. The simple controls and stages filled with varied elements make the matches exciting and there are various advanced mechanics to master. The changes [when compared to previous games], such as the inclusion of checkpoints, turn the game into a more accessible experience, and at the same time it still offers the complex content for those who seek bigger challenges. Beyond that, its universe is mesmerizing with beautiful cartoonish aesthetics, soft Lo-fi hip-hop soundtrack, exotic locations, and many customization possibilities for the character. Some issues from previous games still persist, such as the trial and error moments; however, the feeling of frustration is minimized thanks to the new options. In the end, OlliOlli World is a must-play.

OlliOlli World's approachability and poppy, colourful presentation make diving into its densely packed levels and chasing high scores feel like a warm hug before the white-knuckle drop in.

Seeing the evolution from the OlliOlli franchise is a sight to behold. Developer Roll7 is crazy talented and understands what makes this genre fun and exciting. The new art style lifts the entire OlliOlli gameplay and the change in difficulty mechanics makes it playable for everyone.

OlliOlli World is a complete revitalization of the franchise. Packed with personality, methodically designed levels, and tight gameplay, it establishes itself as a premiere sports series and one of the very best skateboarding games ever made. It invites you to be yourself and glide on your board to the beat of whatever you feel—and results in an ascendant skating experience that is not to be missed.

Roll7 has managed to build, successfully, on each of its previous titles to create something fun and engaging in OlliOlli World. Whilst the story is mostly a miss, it doesn't detract from what is, at its heart, a fun filled skateboarding slice of gaming.

Roll 7 have done what I believed would be impossible and taken two of my favourite indie games of the last few years and made the experience even better. The new art style is just stunning, the game performs superbly well and even the back story adds a little humour to proceedings. A local Co-op mode would have been a nice addition but when a game is this good it is almost impossible to find any fault with it. If you loved the originals then buy this game. If you haven’t played the originals, then buy this game. Put simply, this is an early contender for game of the year without a doubt.
