Ever wondered if a game about riding bikes can be fun without making you want to throw your controller? Rider 2023 feels like that weird mix of frustrating and addictive. Sometimes you think you’ve got it, then the physics mess everything up. Still, it's hard to put down once you start messing around.
Rider 2023 offers neat tricks and tricky jumps. The physics are wonky sometimes, making landings unpredictable. It’s simple enough to pick up but hard to master. The game’s controls are a bit wonky, which keeps it interesting, but it also can be annoying when things go wrong.
You don’t need fancy builds to dominate, but experimenting with bike parts can help. Some setups give better speed or control. Playing around with different loadouts can make you faster, more stable, or just more prone to crashing—depends on what you want. It’s not very balanced but fun to try different combos.
Secret tip: learn the tricky jumps early. Timing is everything. Also, upgrading your bike at the right moment makes a huge difference. Don’t ignore the small shortcuts where possible. It’s addictive trying to beat your best time, even if the physics fight back.
The story is straightforward but a bit dull. You race through various courses, unlock new bikes, and try to beat times. The ending is just more racing, with no real closure. It feels like a grind but can be satisfying once you get used to the wonky physics and mastering the tracks.
