You take on steep snowy mountains on skis, navigating rocks, trees, icy stretches and jumps on the way downhill. Crashes are part of learning the slopes and finding a route that works.
Explore alternate paths and shortcuts, then replay runs to improve your times or complete trick challenges. Solo play includes time trials and a Zen mode for skiing at your own pace; camera options include an overhead view and a follow view.
Online modes support 2–8 players, with cooperative descents that use a limited supply of checkpoints and versus races to the base. Playing also unlocks equipment, outfits and tricks.
Players often enjoy the precise, satisfying feel of skiing and the challenge of learning slopes, finding shortcuts, and shaving time off repeat runs. Reviews also frequently appreciate the snowy scenery and calm environmental sound, which contrast with demanding descents. Some players especially enjoy racing or cooperating with friends, while others find the camera makes it hard to see what lies ahead.
Take a deep breath, count to three, and… go! Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders is a game that balances serious challenge with a relaxing atmosphere. Slice through deep snow, skitter over ice lakes, and leap into the air in spectacular jumps, bringing your friends along for the ride.
Snow Riders also adds a brand new feature to the Lonely Mountains world – online multiplayer! Work your way down the mountain as a team in co-op, carefully sharing your limited checkpoints, or compete in a breakneck race to the base in versus mode. Available for 2-8 players, with multiplatform crossplay.
Perform daredevil tricks or try to best your time for a spot on the leaderboard. Or you can take the road less travelled, discovering shortcuts as you explore the slope. Unlock new equipment, outfits and tricks as you play!
Whether you’re looking for a challenge or a chilled out vacation with friends, Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders is the perfect winter getaway.
