I have been playing Alto's Odyssey on and off for around 2 years. And I will give be giving you a few reasons on why I rate it so highly while at the same time explaining the basics of the game. Controls: here is one of the main reasons why I like this game, the controls are really easy to pick up on. Just taping and holding your screen is all you need to know to play this game! Gameplay: The Gameplay is basically you sliding down sand dunes while doing tricks using your momentum plus your surroundings to bounce, ramp, and eventually fly. Not only trying to get as far as you can without crashing but trying to ear the most points doing tricks. And for those that don't want to worry about crashing, there is a zen mode so you can just relax and enjoy the game for what it is.
