Locked in a steel tomb and armed with nothing but throttle and grit, MotoTrials throws you headfirst into a physics-driven nightmare. This 2.5D motorcycle platformer blends the eerie tension of Limbo with the sadistic spectacle of Squid Game, all wrapped in the mechanical precision of Trials. As Ricky, a lone rider in a concrete labyrinth of flame jets, collapsing bridges, and cryptic voices, you’ll crash, retry, and claw your way toward freedom or madness. Our deep dive into MotoTrials begins at full throttle, no brakes, and zero mercy.

MotoTrials Review Pros

• Nice graphics. 
• 1.22GB Download size. 
• Platinum trophy. 
• Physics-based survival game. 
• Game settings – brightness slider, main volume, language, and subtitles on and off. 
• The game is that you are subjected to a game show like prison and have to escape by beating the many forms of the game. One minute you are riding a bike and doing jumps, next you are rolling stones around to get over spikes. 
• The checkpoint system they are quite liberal with it. 
• 2.5D game world with day and night integration for set sequences. 
• As said, full physics are in play, and this adds a lot to how the game controls and how you react to hazards. 
• The speaker does a lot of the sound effects and announcer shout-outs. 
• You don’t get any help or tutorials, and to be honest, this fits the gameplay really well as it keeps the sense of loss and loneliness the game sets up. 
• There is a long bar at the top of the pause menu, and this represents each segment of the game. You can use this as a sort of level select and go back on yourself. 
• The levels are good and varied, but they do have issues where it’s not always clear, and it can be frustrating. 
• Hidden collectable chests, and they shine gold. 
• A dark, ominous atmosphere. 
• The game is quick to load and respawn you; you can press a button to speed it up. 
• Yes, the ragdolls are funny and spectacular. 
• You can pause the game. 
• The camera pans in and out, usually for a dramatic effect or to show off a huge area or backdrop. 
• It’s strange as the game can be frustrating and obtuse but yet it also has a pull where you want to see what’s next, you want to know what it all means.

MotoTrials Review Cons

• The sound doesn’t always come out of the speaker, and it is random and not a case of only certain sounds going through. 
• Performance-wise wise it’s a bit up and down. As you transfer levels or areas, the game will judder and slow down, then pop into a whole new area and weather or time of day event. 
• Some tutorial or button prompt would help initially, as the opening section of getting out of the container can be a stinker. 
• Lacks any real game settings or accessibility options. 
• Many times I would hit roadblocks, and it was either a glitch, or an obtuse puzzle or mechanic that felt random as to whether you were allowed to pass it. 
• At times, it feels like you don’t see enough ahead of you and get an easy death and restart. 
• Dying from falling is ridiculous, I mean, it’s such small heights, and you can just explode into pieces or lose your head. Funny to see, but also what! It was like 1cm off the floor. 
• When ducking, if you stay too long, an idle animation kicks in, and you stand up and then can’t duck again until you move. 
• The roadblocks I talk about can be very frustrating, and there is no way to skip them.
