Beautiful open airs, high waves and roar of powerful engines, so in a nutshell you can present the struggle on water scooters in the game "Jet Ski Riders". The authors invite you to the sunny beaches of Florida, the hot waters of the Maldives, Venetian labyrinths of canals, treacherous, full of cascades and waterfalls of the New Zealand river and other equally attractive places.

A player can play as one of eight players and players (the five are available immediately, the remaining three have to be "unlocked"). Each form is described by a number of parameters: speed pulled out of the scooter, ease of driving and resistance to injuries (manifested by the frequency of falling from the scooter). There are two types of scooters to choose from: 750Sxi Pro and Ultra 150. The first model (single-seater) is mainly used for standing driving, is very manoeuvrable and is perfect for wriggling various tricks. The second scooter (two-seater) is heavier than its predecessor, more stable and gains a lot on not too winding, complicated routes. Both models are also a representation of real machines, because the authors have purchased licenses from Kawasaki to use scooters of this company. The competitors are also equipped with licensed outfits (Jet Pilot) and helmets (Aria). The game offers three racing modes: arcade, time attack and championship. In the first player selects a competitor, scooter and takes part in a single, noncommittal race on one of the available routes. The second mode consists in counting the next control gates (checkpoints) in the shortest possible time. The most extensive is, of course, the championship mode, where the player races on one of the three difficulty levels on all available routes, collecting points for taking good places and fighting for a high position in the ranking. A variety of fun is quite a separate mode - freestyle, allowing for special waterways, equipped with ramps, twisting barrels, turns and other, various tricks. Each player knows different tricks, characteristic only for him. Graphics in the game is realistic, races take place at different times of the day and in a variable aura (sun, rain, fog). The behaviour and appearance of the water is reflected in the use of (for the first time) GZWave technology, which allows for faithful recreation of the driving reality by rough waves. The music accompanying the struggle was lent by Shadow Moving, the largest British club music label. The game offers a multiplayer for two people, where players race on a split screen.
