The main portion of the game consists of online races against other players, either using items in a manner vaguely akin to MarioKart or with no items to focus purely on your raw speed and skill. There is also a [[FakeDifficulty brutally hard]] mission mode, which contains most of the in-game plot advancement.

!!This game provides examples of:
* BeachEpisode / PortTown: Scorching Seaside, Sunny Harbour and Port Twilight.
* BlindIdiotTranslation: While the grammar in the interface is mostly correct, the dialogue in mission mode is loaded with confusing engrish.
* CallingYourAttacks: The names of special attacks are yelled by the characters using them.
* CelShading: Averted. It uses cartoony colours and dark outlines, but has a realistic lighting system. Still looks and awful lot like ‘’JetSetRadio’’, though.
* DifficultySpike: While pretty much all the missions are stupidly difficult, everything after 3 is damn near impossible.
* FakeDifficulty: A lot of the missions rely on inadequate time limits and just plain unfair scenarios to be as [[NintendoHard insanely tough]] as they are. Even [[TutorialFailure the tutorials]] have caused trouble for many players.
* GameBreaker: [[FakeSkill Snakingsnakingsnakingsnakingsnaking]].
** There are also a number SequenceBreaking glitches that allow players to skip sections of courses and pretty much crush players who don’t know about or use them.
* LeParkour: Pretty much the whole point of the game.
*MadeOfIron: Granted, it takes quite a bit of physical endurance to be a freerunner. It still looks extremely unrealistic when getting hit by a car just causes your character to trip and keep running.
** Also, rolling upon landing will negate any damage from a fall, no matter how high.
* MinecartMadness: Subverted with Gold Rush. There are minecart rails, but instead of riding a cart on them, [[TakeAThirdOption you grind them]].
* OnlySixFaces: Averted. While there are only four base character models to choose from, each one comes with multiple faces you can apply. Played straight with [=NPCs=], though. See YouALLLookFamiliar.
