SSX Tricky is a snowboarding video game, the second game in the SSX series. It is so similar to the original SSX game (with a few new features, including "Über Tricks") that it has been referred to by many as an "upgrade". In SSX, players choose one of several varied characters, participate in races or trick competitions, and earn rewards. The game's sequels are SSX 3 and SSX on Tour. SSX Tricky introduces "Über Tricks," absurdly exaggerated tricks, that take a while to complete, and often involving detaching the board from the rider's feet. The player gains access to Über tricks after filling the adrenaline bar by doing other non-Über tricks. If the trick is successfully landed, a small clip from Run DMC's "It's Tricky" plays, hence the game's name. Performing six Über tricks earns the player unlimited boost for the remainder of the course.
The game includes a behind-the-scenes "making of" segment, labelled "DVD Content" in the main menu. This was not unlocked by the game at all, simply acting like an extra DVD.
Gameplay ModesIn SSX Tricky, there are three modes of gameplay in which you may use, some of which may help you to practice and others of which you may compete. FreerideThe Freeride mode of gameplay does not allow you to unlock characters, boards or outfits, but is basically just-for-fun. It enables you to play with either one or two players, as well as allowing you to get to know the course. Practice
World CircuitIn the World Circuit mode, you have the ability to unlock characters, boards and outfits by racing and competing in events. There are two main categories of events; Race and Show-off. In both events, the player must compete in the Quarter- and Semi-finals, and then in the Finals and get within the top three places to "win" that track; the medals are Bronze, Silver and Gold. There are eight tracks to complete. When racing, you must attempt to stay in the lead of your five opponents. In show-off, you are required to perform as many fancy tricks as you can and obtain as many points as you can. If this mode is completed in Race, the extra track "Untracked" is unlocked for Freeplay. Similary for Showoff is Pipedream. Single EventSingle Event takes, as its name suggests, one of the events over a single heat from World Circuit mode. Medals are awarded at the end of the track, and a second human player can be added. CharactersSix of the eight riders from the original return (Jurgen and Hiro suffered off-season injuries, as is explained on the DVD section, but return in time for SSX 3) and are joined by six new ones.
CoursesSSX Tricky has 10 fictional courses to choose from loosely based around the world and can be unlocked in World Circuit mode. Seven tracks return from the original SSX, accompanied by brand-new Garibaldi and Alaska tracks. The returning tracks contain up to four times as many shortcuts and hidden lines. The fictional courses are as follows:
