NL writes: "Line Rider was originally a simple Flash game where players could freely draw slopes for their sledder to ride down. Even though the game had little structure or goals, it gained considerable popularity among PC gamers, which resulted with many individuals posting their tracks on YouTube – some of which are astounding – for others to enjoy. So, for the retail sequel the developers had to create an equilibrium between free roam creativity and a clear set of objectives. Line Rider: Freestyle manages to blend these two aspects fluently, but sadly there are some issues that diminish its overall success."
Sledge enthusiast Bosh rides lines. Those bendable, stretchable, thick or thin, black or blue things are his love in life, and sledging his forté. Contrary to popular belief, little Bosh also rides down hills laden with snow, only in compressed FMVs, as a break from all his line-riding fun. He depends on you, the reluctant 'God' of lines, to draw the ground beneath him. He'll go through hell and back until you get it right, crashing multiple times hoping you'll have mastered the intricacies and physics behind a successful line ride. Unfortunately these intricacies are almost impossible to master, read: bastard hard. The visuals and lack of content for the price certainly don't help matters. A carpenter never blames its tools, apparently. Evidently this carpenter's never played Line Rider: Freestyle.

RealGamer:
"Line Rider has been a popular internet game for sometime now so it comes as no real surprise that it has made its way on to Nintendo's popular handheld. However, as we've seen many times ports don't always prove to be successful and Line Rider: Freestyle is very much, one such case!"
