Ski Region Simulator - Gold Edition
Hi!
After playing Farming Simulator 2011 I couldn’t help but try this one, and it was excellent. I personally found it very immersive, very very expansive and packed out with silly amounts of equipment available to purchase depending on your strategy. It has the exact same gigantic feel to it that Farming Simulator does and if you dare to try it on hard as I did you’ll find you’re really really up against it to keep the slopes in good condition. I’d recommend getting the darker night mod available online somewhere as it really adds to the atmosphere.

Well where do i start…firstly i am a strong simulation game player YES i love simulations so i guess that makes me a bit of a pro when it comes to testing the games and giving a comment and review on a game i have played and tested, so now we come to Ski Region Simulator - Gold Edition i have played this game constant for 192 hours and find it is a very good game it has many missions and you need to keep your eye on your hotels and once in a while change your preferences to meet the holiday makers so you get a good popularity, it is very easy to play and would suit all ages and it has many tools and equipment you can buy to make the game interesting the graphics is good but could be better as we have the hardware in this day and age to have excellent graphics for this type of game but in saying that in the real world you would not see much more in the swiss alps then what you see in this game lets be honest you would see mostly mountains with snow and some cabins and that’s about it.

SNOW - The Ultimate Edition
I can’t believe how many bad reviews this game got. It’s ridiculous. Espescially seeing all the complaints about things like speed and physics when in reality this game has WAY more realistic speed and physics than any other snow games out there like SSX Shaun White Snowboarding etc. All those games have horrible physics and DO NOT replicate real life snow sports what so ever. The funny thing is I have snowboarded all my life and didn’t even care much for skiing, so I was dissappointed that snowboarding isn’t in the game yet, but I went ahead and purchased anyways because I couldn’t wait any longer since there are no other games out there like this one. Long story short this game actually made me like skiing for the first time ever in the 18 years of my life of being a snowboarder. I’ve also been waiting for a game like this forever literally. NO COMPANY has ever made a snow sports game so realistic. I needed a game like this so badly and it’s finally here. So here’s my review:

For the record, before the M10 update, I would have recommended this game.
But with the new update, the game is so much less enjoyable.
SKI PASSES
I’ll start the with the biggest change: the ski passes. This is a very logical concept and, if it were well executed and well implemented into the game, it would have been great. Basically, if you don’t buy any ski passes, you only have access to the tutorial map and one other map, which cycles between all maps every week. With this change, the game doesn’t feel free-to-play at all, it just feels like you’re playing a trial version of the game. If we had at least one other map permanently unlocked like nine knights or something, it would make it sooo much better. Or cycking two maps at a time instead of only one.

Slopecrashers
Yes! You read right, arcade snowboarding is back! Which means SLOPECRASHERS is crafted with one thing in mind and that is FUN! This starts from the character selection screen and goes down into the core physics of the game. So press START, choose a character, a board and a hangglider, optionally even up to three buddies of yours for SPLITSCREEN MULTIPLAYER and hit the slopes!
STUNTS, STUNTS and more STUNTS. Yes, very important, because the more daring a stunt is, the more speed you will get out of it. Oh and COMBOS! Chain those stunts together with manuals, small tricks and railslides and redeem the combo meter when you are ready for that EXTRA SPEEDBOOST!
Oh, you thought you could go for a chill ride? I mean yeah you can but look out for your opponents causing EXPLOSIONS, MOLES digging up the ground beneath you, ANGRY SNOWMEN trying to stop you and much more. So go collect items and PROTECT yourself or ATTACK the others! (But for those moments when you just want to cruise down the track and explore everything the slopes have to offer you can choose an opponent-free game mode as well)
And btw, these slopes are not just in snow environments. No! Where we’re shredding, WE DON’T NEED SNOW! So don’t wonder if the next race/slalom/stuntshow/… starts in a shopping mall, a hot desert or a tropical jungle area!

Steep™
been nearly a week owning and playing the game every day. Sometimes it feels like your the only one playing the game, rarely seeing other people. Other times you can be doing your own thing and suddenly there’s 4 people along side you. I’ve already met some people that I play with now even though i felt like i wouldn’t have because i thought i had got the game too late and that there wouldn’t be so many people playing, i was wrong.
Otherwise its a pretty fun game, tricks are pretty difficult on mouse and keyboard though. Sometimes even delays in them, and struggles figuring them out.

Update: I must admit when I need something fast paced that isn’t about shooting a gun, this game satisfies that desire. And I almost ALWAYS get my games on sale!! I’m waiting on their welcome add on to be discounted more than 30% right now.. It’ll probably be a while. I don’to recommend full price for this game..

I do get annoyed with the keybindings and resetting them up may confuse me further so I’m unsure atm about that. Hitting shift is instinct for running but it also is for changing your device (board, skis, etc) I don’t like that part and the esc screen very much. The controls for that stuff aren’t up to my standards but the rest of the game is so satisfying ♥

Comments:
I’ve never really played a bridge builder type game but do generally love building games so when I saw that Curve Digital were helping yet another small British studio get a game out in the wild I couldn’t help but pick it up. And I’m glad I did though I didn’t expect to spend quite so much time with it.
I assume most of the tools are at this point pretty rote for fans of the genre but for me the whole idea was pretty novel and interesting. The game essentially asked me to use a limited set of supports, ramps and the like to get my little skier from one side of the map to another.

I love it! The price really attracted me to buy this game and I wondered if it was a case of “you get what you pay for”. In this instance I can say I got a lot of bang for my buck. The tutorial helped me to understand the slight differences in controls to other games of this type but they are very user friendly and after a few minutes I managed to get to grips with all the hotkey solutions as well.
The learning curve is not too slow so each level offers a new challenge and as you progress the challenge continues to grow as well (3 hours can easily feel like 10 minutes with this one!)
