Flip Diving

As a fan of live virtual sports games, I appreciated how Flip Diving is a fun plunge into cliff diving held in the palm of my hand. The whole game is based on nailing the most insane jumps and flips off the biggest heights imaginable (cliffs, platforms, castles, you name it). The level of depth and ability is where the game finds its most satisfying draw, as each dive feels tailored with a set of tricks and moves to unlock in the menus, often keeping the gameplay fresh from one character to the next.

The physics of Flip Diving gives the experience a feeling of authenticity, and the requirement of perfect water entry means that every jump presents a challenge. The game does well to emulate the world’s greatest cliff diving game at once simple yet layered, but players are also to be wary of painful belly-flops against the rocks, bringing a level of risk to any single attempt. Though myself not a fan of how some of the sleep in the games may having some people relish at the idea of monotony, my observations from fellow gamers would indicate a strong understanding of why some mechanics can go from straight forward to addictive. It adds some fun to casual gameplay sessions!
