Nothing unusual about this motorcycle game, pretty standard, as far as the controls department is concerned. Just like most motorcycle games, you will use your arrow / directional keys for the most part. To accelerate and set the track on fire, press the up directional key and old on to it. To slow down and back up, perhaps to try build up some velocity for that loop, press the down directional key. And as for the left and right buttons, they are for leaning on those directions. Just be cautious, though, pressing those buttons for too long, whether you are in mid air or your wheels are touching the track will cause your motorcycle to flip. NOT GOOD! Ramps - they are very crucial in every level of Uphill Rush and you better take advantage of them with the jump button (that's the space bar)... allowing you to cover more distance. Also, there's the Turbo bar. Once you have filled, well... you get a turbo speed boost (not surprising). By the way, to start filling the turbo button, you gotta do 360s and other stunts, which is NOT easy at all. Anyway, with the controls taken care of, let's have a closer look at the game.

Uphill Rush Walkthrough
Motorcycle games - known for being action packed minus the violence... and of course, known for stunts and tricks, this genre will always have its share of fans and enthusiasts. And if you are one of them, you should check out Uphill Rush (there's a hole series of this title by the way). Racing up hill, doing 360s, supermans, and the like - if that's your cup of tea, this is a game you can enjoy no matter what time of the day!
The objective is pretty standard: race through the hills or whatever the track is, pass through the obstacles, and PLEASE, don't crash! No life bars here folks. And although you have 5 lives to begin with, I must remind you that this is for pretty advanced motorcycle gamers. The level of difficulty can be quite frustrating for a newbie, BUT that doesn't mean you can't enjoy this game. I definitely did, even if I was toasted in the first level no less than 5 types.
Anyway, more about the details, Uphill Rush isn't just a motorcycle game. It comes with 10 different levels as well as 5 cups where you use different vehicles - you can have a quad, a monster truck, motorcycle, skateboard, and a spacial cup. While motorcycle game purists may find this annoying, I find very pleasant. For one thing, it gives Uphill Rush a lot of replay value. This is the bad thing about motorcycle games, once you finish them, it doesn't make a lot of sense starting all over again. BUT not Uphill Rush... PLUS the unlockable levels add more fun to the game.
Comes with nice shiny graphics, very good replay value thanks to the unlockable levels and different cups and vehicles at your disposal, simple to understand control and game play, topped with challenging tracks and terrain - I'm giving this motorcycle game, Uphill Rush, 2 thumbs up! If you are a huge fan of motorcycle games, this is a game (or rather this is a series) you shouldn't miss.
