Using manuals to chain kickflips and pop shuvits to move the stoic heart of a gigantic statue of a philosopher. Landing tricks so intense you can shatter and eat one of the underworld's many moons. Ollieing over demonic eyes to open gates forward. Skate Story is a skating game like you've never played before, combining the close-up camera of Skate with Tony Hawk's Pro Skater's wildest scenarios – and a dash of Sayonara Hearts to groove through traversal gauntlets.
Skate Story is, as it says in-game, "a classic deal with the Devil situation". As a demon resident of the underworld looking for something more to your existence, you come across a skateboard and are offered a contract with some terms for using it to make your escape. You must eat all of the moons. And now you will be made of glass. Reasonable stuff. It adds an extra element of danger to fumbling a jump or trick – the chances of shattering into pieces, trapped in damnation as nothing more than shards.
