The Surfer Gameplay and Review on YouTube
I love heading to the beach on a good day and watching the beautiful waves rolling in. However, I’m seriously lacking in the stamina department to go out and enjoy those waves the way one should. Well thanks to the guys at Bungarra Software, I don’t have to worry about my stamina! I only need to worry about paddling my surfing character out to the good waves on a virtual surfboard in The Surfer.
The Surfer is an arcade styled leaderboard sports game that lets you surf awesome breaks around the globe. Choose your character, push that left joystick forward and start surfing to your heart’s content!
