"Pathetic game"

This game is simply horrible. You ski down several levels of mountains which are nearly impossible due to lack of good controls.

Graphics: 4
This category gets a 4 because of the nicely drawn title screen, but the game has below average graphics. A good portion of the screen is covered with sky! You are a fairly recognizable human with a line as your ski. There is also a deer drawn nicely at the beginning of the game. That also helps this category. I know its an NES game and NES is actually my favorite system but these graphics are bland in detail. Overall they aren't horrible to look at, but they are under average.

Sound: 1
The sound is really bad...that's all there is to say. It gets very, very, very, annoying. I would rather listen to music from Lolo (that's sad) than listen to this music. Actually you should just turn your sound off.

Gameplay: 1
This is where the game fails. You start skiing with 4 lives and you go down the hill and you touch a trees shadow and fall face first into the snow. There's 1 life gone. Next life you do the same thing. Next two lives you start spinning around and crash into a river. Game over! That is the worst thing about the game, the controls. You really can't do much with them, they are so terrible. Simply horrible...Oh but it does have a level select and a 99 lives code so it you can actually get somewhat far. yay. Ski Free is a more exciting game to play than this. You can get further in that even with that annoying Ogre that eats you.

Replay: 1
How can you possibly want to play a game that sucked in the first place, multiple times? You can't! That's how.

Overall: 1
If you ever see this game just leave it alone. But you probably will never see it because everybody burned it. But actually it might be a good idea to get this game because since it is one of the worst games ever made, it might be very rare since everybody destroyed their copy. It would probably only cost 1 cent anyway. But a penny is worth more to me than this game. I'm serious. I would rather have a penny. I can do more with a penny than I can with this game. Keep your penny.
