Community Insight:
Best mobile game ever, love the tilt feature and gameplay.
The PC version of this used to be our favorite game as a kid and now we are happy to have it on our phone! We also love the new features it has and we are happy the app is free! Thank you to the developer for making this.
The best game = most addictive, most enjoyable. It will haunt your dreams.
We are embarrassed to think about how many hours Ive spent on our PC playing this game. Its very addictive. This version had a glitch that we reported to the developer. He promptly made the change per our request and emailed us back. We appreciate the attention given to a user, we appreciate (tremendously) the Apple report that no information is collected, and Ill be glad to waste a ridiculous amount of time on the phone version now! Thanks Dimitri.
1/2022 Update Fixed! -5 updated to 5 stars!! ( Apple Silicon support!).
Wasted $1.99 on it. Downloaded it but it just does not open.
We paid for the app, but it would not open on macOS 12.6 (error).
This is a simple app with graphics that are a bit dated, but fun nonetheless. If you are looking for a game that can be played by children without frustrating them, this is it. Our siblings and we used to play this when younger and it kept us entertained. As an adult now, this game is quite simplistic, but good if you are bored at the airport, or in need of a break from the world for a bit. There are several avatars to choose from (Tux, Trixie, Boris, and a few others) and the passes range from the super easy bunny hill to the trickier narrow passes. The weather and lighting conditions are adjustable too. Game play is easy to do on a keyboard using the arrow keys and your avatar is capable of speeding up, braking, turning, etc. If you are tired of seeing advertisements on other games and want a game you can play mindlessly, this is for you. We would not expect anything intense or challenging from it, but for the price and the ease of use, we consider it worth it.
