The Games: Winter Edition is a multi-event sports game developed by Epyx and released for DOS in 1988. Building on their classic sports series, it challenges players to master a variety of winter disciplines ranging from the ski jump to the luge.
How to play
Compete across a series of winter sporting events to earn high scores, fast times, and medals. Controls map to the original DOS keyboard inputs, relying on the arrow keys for movement and the Spacebar or Enter for actions. Follow the on-screen prompts to master the unique mechanics of each discipline. You can toggle full screen by pressing Right Alt + Enter.
Tips
In events like the luge, steer into turns early to maintain your top speed through the corners. For the ski jump, wait until the very edge of the ramp before initiating your jump to maximise your distance.
