Skate Crazy is an exhilarating skateboarding sports game released in 1988 by Gremlin Graphics and reissued as a budget edition by Kixx. Players control one of the skateboarding characters navigating dynamic courses in two distinct modes: the Car Park Challenge—an isometric, multi-directional skatecourse filled with cones, ramps, and obstacles—and traditional side-view tracks focused on precision and style. Featuring adjustable jump heights, inertia-based movement, and combo tricks like aerial spins and grinding, the game challenges players to meet performance thresholds judged by four on-screen judges for style, speed, airtime, and trick variety. Courses also include pickups such as cans and bonuses to boost scores.
