“What a nice surprise this game turned out to be. The visuals, sound effects and theme are very crisp and calming, but the gameplay itself is very tight and precise. At first I would repeatedly fall or hit rocks, but…”
“I'm so pleased to play this game! Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders elevates everything Downhill did, while also adding in some new features, such as online play, trick mode, and an over-the-shoulder camera. For a game…”

“Very fun game. It takes a few hours to master the controls and to learn the slopes, racing is a lot of fun. 8/10”
“Again an amazing game from the creators at MI! It is not easy, you will fall, fail a lot, but exploration, building experience is part of the journey. Really enjoyable, 100% recommended”

“Great game solo or with friends, improve your race time or do some sick moves. Multiplayer is great when its not stuttering. Today was playing for bout 2 hours and towards the end it was almost un playable. Horrible…”

“Wonky controls, with the game taking over control when moving out of bounds. Downgrade from the bike game they put out first, and a huge step down from the mountain ski and snowboard game with huge unwieldy long name.”

“Good vibe. Can get a bit frustrating at times but I suppose that this point. Definitely fun.”
“Maybe its a skill issue but It is hard for me to like this game... the camera angle makes it difficult to flow with the terrain. I find myself constantly changing camera angles to navigate the levels. The game looks…”

“Very fun, uniquely beautiful, and demanding - what's not to like! It even has a fully featured Level Editor in Beta, so new levels can keep coming through the workshop!”
— a player, Steam review · 412 hrs played“I was a big fan of Lonely Mountains: Downhill, and this sequel does not disappoint. My favourite improvement to Snow Riders is the 3rd person POV that follows behind the character - it makes it SO much easier to control. The addition of trick riding also adds another level of…”
