OlliOlli World Review

OlliOlli World is the third entry in Roll7's side-scrolling platforming skateboard game franchise, following OlliOlli and OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood. As the inclusion of “World” in the title would suggest, OlliOlli World builds on and expands over these past entries in strong ways.

From the get-go, OlliOlli World is very expressive in terms of its own identity, throwing players into a prologue filled with over-the-top skateboarding puns and language that befits the setting’s name: Radlandia. The overall graphics have a hand-drawn feel and look like something straight out of Adventure Time, welcoming players into this experience whether they are newcomers or veterans.

In Radlandia, the OlliOlli World player’s goal is to meet all the “Skate Godz,” master various tricks of the trade, reach enlightenment in “Gnarvana,” and ultimately become the new Skate Wizard. Players can tailor this experience by designing their own character, changing everything from their clothes to their body size. Players can also customize their skateboards, including trucks and wheels, how a player pushes off, how a player ends a run, and more. As players meet “Skate Godz,” they unlock mastery challenges that can provide even more customization options, as well as other methods in the game.

Radlandia is divided into five distinct sections, all utilizing different environments: the beach-like Sunset
