Wave Race — About this game
Wave Race turns a personal watercraft into a contest of racing lines and timed bursts. Circuit rewards finishing position, while Slalom awards each gate to the first boat through it. Choose between engine classes, build turbo by leaving it unused and shift the rider’s weight over jumps. A faster craft can win a straightaway but demands more care around pylons and the next crowded corner.
