Remember the good old days of kindergarten when your biggest challenge was not getting Crayola crayon wax all over your mom's new couch? Welcome to Crayola Scoot where the crayons are back and this time, they’re armed with scooters! Imagine a world where Tony Hawk and Crayola teamed up to create a sports game that’s 40% coloring and 60% extreme scooting. Grab your helmet and let's jump in!
Crayola Scoot has you zipping around vibrant, paint-filled arenas, performing tricks and completing wild challenges to cover everything in your signature color. The controls are as easy as pie (assuming you can do that whole steering thing). You can perform tricks that even your neighbor's dog would appreciate, like tailwhips and grinds, and of course, there’s a giant sprinkling of paint mechanics reminiscent of Splatoon—but without the risk of ruining your favorite white shoes. The game features a variety of game modes including single-player, multiplayer, and a sandbox for those 'artistic days' when you just want to play with colors (not that we judge!). You can choose from a pack of whimsical characters like a skateboard-obsessed cat or a dog that’s secretly an artist (because why not?). And if you gather enough paint, you unlock new tricks, moves, and—of course—more vibrant colors that would make even Van Gogh wish he was alive today. Who needs ear-cutting when you can do a bright pink kickflip? The magic really happens when you try out multiplayer. If you’ve ever dreamed of battling your friends in a mad scramble to cover the most ground in your signature shade of neon green while pulling off tricks like a pro, then this is your moment. Just don’t blame us when the competition gets fierce, and your friends start bickering over who gets to ride the coolest scooter. Pro tip: throw some virtual paint at them to distract them. Works every time!
Visually, Crayola Scoot is like a delightful painting gone haywire. Bright colors, playful environments, and a whole lot of charm make this a family-friendly eye-candy experience. The graphics are reminiscent of a Saturday morning cartoon—if that cartoon was about a bunch of hyper scooter-riding kids fighting to keep their crayons from melting in the sun. Characters bounce with personality, and the environments look like they jumped off the pages of your childhood art book. The only downside? It can get a little chaotic trying to keep track of all that splendid mayhem on screen, but it’s all part of the charm! Plus, there's nothing quite like seeing your character covered in splashes of paint that would make Jackson Pollock nod in approval.
Crayola Scoot is a colorful ride that invites players of all ages to kick their worries aside and just scoot! Whether you’re looking to dive into some creative chaos in single-player or throw down with your friends, the game has something for everyone. It’s not going to dethrone titles like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, but it doesn’t need to. It’s here for the fun, the chaos, and most importantly, the colors. So if you ever wanted to feel like a kid again while also feeling a little smug about your scooting skills, throw on some knee pads, grab your PS4, and give it a whirl! Just remember: the only thing you're at risk of ruining is your couch—not with crayons, but with paint splatters from your wild adventures.
