Skyline Skaters Walkthrough [Guide]

Skyline Skaters is an endless runner that will allow players to experience the excitement of skating through different obstacles while trying to evade capture from police. Here’s our guide on how to play this game so that you can experience the thrill of skyline skating without the risk of broken arms and necks.

Gameplay
Skyline Skaters is an endless running game where in players must avoid obstacles, as well as missiles, launched by police. Players are allowed to stumble once in a while, but doing so will cause the cops to close in on you. There are also ledges that players must avoid in order to prevent a nasty fall. Other items can either help you or make your runs more difficult. Currency earned can be used to upgrade your tricks and to get and upgrade powerups that will aid you throughout your runs.

Currency
Coins and cash are the two currencies available within the game. Coins can be used to purchase new characters and boards as well as powerups and upgrades, while cash will allow you to purchase premium boards that will allow you to get a higher score. Cash and gold can also be used to purchase powerups at the end of the round, although the former also has the added advantage of allowing you to continue your mission should you already fail and to skip quests.

Coins can be earned by collecting them during your runs and by completing quests. Cash, on the other hand, may be awarded via mystery boxes and by signing in to Facebook where players can earn one cash per day. Coins may be exchanged for cash, while additional cash may be purchased using real money. Other deals would also allow players to earn more of these extra currencies for free.

Leveling Up
By completing quests such as collecting a certain number of coins or by surviving a required distance, players will get to earn crowns. A certain number of crowns would be required before players can level up. Leveling up will reward players with mystery boxes which may contain items like powerups, new boards, or even cash. Quests may be skipped using cash, and this will open up new quests for players to accomplish.

Scoring
Scoring is based on coins collected, distance ran, stunts performed, as well as grind bonuses. Scores can be further increased by performing streaks, which is simply collecting all coins within a string. Grinding bonuses, in turn, can be acquired by skating along pipes or along rooftops, so make sure to try and make your character go through these paths if multiple ones are available. Lastly, stunts performed will be based on how much your current board has been upgraded, as each upgraded will allow players to increase their scores by a certain percentage. The execution of stunts within the game, however, will be out of the player’s control.

The best way to score high is to collect letters that will appear from time to time. By forming the required word, players can activate Super Streak, where in they will be launched into the air and they would be able to collect lots of coins for a certain period of time.

Boards
Players would be able to gain access to different types of boards, and these can be acquired by buying them or as rewards for leveling up. Boards may be upgraded so that they can do more stunts, which would in turn allow you to yield a higher score. Make sure that you equip your best board especially if you want to beat your friends’ personal bests.

Powerups
Two types of powerups are available within Skyline Skaters. There are powerups that can be bought at the beginning of the stage and would be triggered automatically. These powerups can be bought using either cash or coins depending on what you would like to buy. There are also powerups that can be unlocked at the store, which would then allow these items to appear randomly in the game. These include shields that will help prevent you from getting damaged, magnets which would attract coins toward you, rainbows that will prevent you from falling between gaps, and many more. These powerups may also be upgraded using coins so that they would be more effective.

Look towards buying and collecting powerups in order to make the most out of each run. Of course, players must also ensure that they have the required amount of coins in order to make the purchase.

Characters
There are several characters that may be bought within the game, and each has their own characteristics and special abilities. For example, one skater allows players to perform the triple jump maneuver while another will automatically have a shield up. There are also others that will allow for point or streak bonuses. These new characters will require a lot of coins to purchase, while some would be provided once they have connected the game to their Facebook accounts.

Should you have enough money and have already maxed out on powerup and board upgrades, look towards getting a new character based on your style of play so that you may be able to take advantage of the special abilities that your character of choice may have.
