The event I really enjoyed playing was Biathlon. It arguably features the best graphics and waggling the joystick actually prompts your avatar to where you want to. Downhill and Skijump were passable, Slalom and Bobsled felt weird. When it comes to winter sports on the Amiga, I prefer Ski Or Die.

I first saw the C64 version and its great 'Downhill' Music with digis probably belongs to the best sounds on the C64. My expectations for the Amiga version were (too) high and I was a little disappointed when I saw it.

In parts better than Winter Games, but some events were just awful to play. Like the slalom, which I never quite figured out how to play well.

I think I still prefer to challenge my friends in Winter Games (and preferably on the C64).

Featured some of the nicest backgrounds you'll see in a winter sports game, the crosscrountry skiing was my favourite. Good times, good times

This was one of the first games I bought for my Amy after selling my beloved CBM 64 and it sure had sort of a "Wow!" effect on me, mainly thanks to the nice graphics. It's a pity I soon realized Winter Games was actually a better game, even if it ran on a lesser machine...

Like Winter Games with a bit better graphics. Perhaps there should have been more events. Well, it was fun when I played it as a kid, but it is not so well done if I try to take more critical perspective. On ski jump, the jumpers land on steady ground.
