Critic Reviews for Helskate
In many ways, Helskate is a rogue-lite that feels more like a hardcore skateboarding game with elements of RPG progression. It combines the best of Tony Hawk’s smooth, trick-centric gameplay with the outrageous flair of Jet Set Radio and the energetic, fast-paced combat of Sunset Overdrive. The world of Vertheim is brutal, beautiful, and full of promise for players who enjoy a challenging, skill-based loop where every death feels like an opportunity to become stronger. Helskate is worth trying, especially for fans of skating games or roguelites looking for something different. While it offers a unique experience, it’s not a title I’d personally buy. Still, if you’re curious, grab your board and gear up to skate through Vertheim—because in this hellish maze, your only escape is by shredding your way out.
