🕹️ New release: Lunar Lander Beyond

The Games: Winter Challenge

aka: Winter Challenge
Moby ID: 2110

DOS version

Lots of fun.

The Good
- The graphics. As with its sequel, "Summer Challenge", they mix motion capture with 3D, with excellent results. The colour palette is also fantastic for its time.

  • The different trials are lots of fun to play, alone or (preferred) with friends who can laugh at your failures and then test their abilities themselves.

    The Bad
    - The music and sound effects are very good, but during certain trials, such as downhill skying, you won't be hearing much.

  • Some trials, like the ski jump, are difficult to master because of the controls.

    The Bottom Line
    This game would be funny enough just because of the win / lose animations. Combined with the graphics and the trials themselves, it's the best winter sports game I've ever played.
