“If it's on sale, just buy it. Stop thinking about it. Pull the trigger. Very zen, very chill, very easy to start up and play for 10 mins or 120 mins. SNO invokes similar freeride trappings to ShredSauce mixed with…”
“For less than a cup of coffee at Starbucks (Steam sale) & didn't give me the runs afterwards. 10/10, this game is super soothing and itches my brain just right. If y'all wanna laugh and enjoy something that is just pure…”
“Such a fun game, so zen, so chill. It takes the best parts of games like steep, and riders republic (zoning out and doing nothing of significance), and amplifies it extremely well. The SFX are so immersive.. Combine it…”

“Just what I was in the mood for. I'm glad I found this game. Very chill, yet can be addictive. The art style is nice to look at, the lighting is great (sunset is beautiful), and the feel is fantastic and flows very…”

“what a perfect little gem of a game. super easy to drop into, extremely immersive especially in first person, it's one of those games with a low floor and high ceiling that anyone can get into. it's whatever you want it…”
“SNO is such a good game and i love it. If you cant decide what game to play, SNO is the game for that because either when playing SNO you will play it for 10 minutes or if you are really locked in you could play it up…”
“Started playing since 11.00, haven't stopped yet. This game is suprisingly fun! When you get the hang off it, this game becomes amazing!”

“Wanted to like it, but 13 minutes in, I was already bored. Not really a game. More of a tech demo. Controls felt off and were sometimes unpredictible.”
“make a park to do tricks”
“soothing gameplay, i think it needs some actual levels and a tutorial to get you started, would recommend”

“I like it a lot in first person skiing. It becomes like a sort of ski-surfer procedurally generated. Like Superflight for skiing. Some of the worlds are amazing, I wish I didn't click through sometimes:) you can save…”
“this is just a demo like a concept. there's nothing that makes this a game. also its too wobbly to feel comfortable which it claims its a comforting game.”

“Um jogo muito bom pra relaxar, o modo zen funciona muito bem até porque dá pra deixar só 10% de obstáculos, deixando mais fácil. (Só reembolsei pq tinha um jogo que atendia minhas expectativas)”
“Great snowboarding/sledding/skiing game, but you'd think it's an IRL simulation the way the snow bunnies drive me so crazy”

“It's rubbish, like a cheap AI project. There's no levelling, progression or story. Repeating short runs get boring very fast. And trying to beat a leader's board is not even a proper game. My Xbox One controller works…”
“This game is everything I’ve ever wanted in a snowboarding game. Has pretty much every feature I think should be include. But please can the devs make Zen mode where you can just get up and ski again after crashing…”

“You should add multiplayer, me and my friends would plat this so much”
— a player, Steam review · 12 hrs played“Very much recommend SNO, especially if you have a handheld such as the Steam Deck to play on. I have been playing 99% of the time on my Steam Deck and can very easily vouch that performance is excellent, and the ease of getting into the game and just playing has made it my go-to…”
— a player, Steam review · 10 hrs played“10/10. Smooth, responsive, weighty, addicting. I love the way this game plays and how easy it is to pickup, play for any amount of time, and put down. Runs fantastic, being a perfect steamdeck/handheld game. Devs are great, being very interactive with the community and quickly…”
