Excellent surface controls
Ski Challenge 14 is extremely reactive . The skier slides on the snowy slopes with a confusing realism . Movement a little too sharp and you land in the background , simply.
Players will soon realize the importance of weather conditions. Must adapt the parameters of skis before each run , and focus , for example , good adhesion when the track is slippery.
Ski Challenge 14 not only supports keyboard controls, but gamepads .
Attractive graphics , nice soundtrack
Ski Challenge 14 offers two viewing angles : a camera on the back of the skier to have a better overview on the track and in front of a camera , in closeup , which puts players directly into the action.
The graphics are beautiful : forest tracks , snowy trees, blue sky ... The only negative is the decor : distant landscapes are twisted and static cornering.
The soundtrack Ski Challenge 14 is quite repetitive . The menus are always the same rhythmic music, and " hop hop hop " and " gemma gemma " . Nevertheless, repeated encouragements were nice enough .
Conclusion : A good ski simulator containing several game modes
Ski Challenge 14 is fun . You glide down the slopes overlooking the valley and against your ghost . Slippery turns and capricious skis will require players to be creative .
The qualities of the game are slightly tarnished by the soundtrack rather unexciting , and the scenery in the background , wallpaper worthy of a waiting room.
The online mode promised great races, but it was not available at the time of our test.
