Skate Or Die: Bad'N Rad is a Jump'N Run that consists of 7 levels, three of which are viewed from a top-down perspective. The side-scrolling levels play similarly to other Jump'N Runs, as players have to avoid obstacles and kill enemies by jumping on them. However, since they are on a skateboard, speed is important, so players cannot stop immediately and sometimes need to ride at full speed to clear wider jumps. The top-down levels play more similarly to other Skate Or Die games, as gradients influence players' driving while they are trying to avoid obstacles, enemies, and deadly spikes.
