Winter Challenge for Genesis


Image: MobyGames

Winter Challenge

The best winter Olympics game


Genre: minigame - n/a

Publisher: Ballistic

Year: 1992

System: Genesis


Gameplay Score: 1

Gameplay Notes:

All minigames have a behind view. This is way more compelling that the isometric view in game. Unfortunately the framerate is abysmal and the gameplay is incredibly shallow. It's not as tiring as other Oyplmpic games anyway. The skiing games play like a racing game. Like a slow 1080 with a bad framerate. Sort of fun. Each of the games is worth trying once but I would never pick up thod he a second time.


Level Design Score: 3

Level Design Notes:

Great variety in the minigames.


Theme Score: 3

Theme Notes:

Good presentation. It looks and feels like you're there in the Olympic action.


Art Style Score: 2

Art Style Notes:

Sprites are well drawn but again the framerate is awful. Low poly environments haven't aged well.


Audio Score: 2

Audio Notes:


Overall Score: 36

Review ID: 1393
