March 2025
This is a fun physics construction game similar to the Bridge Constructor games except you're obviously building ski lifts instead of bridges. An interesting twist on this one is that in some stages, you also control the people and have to build the ramps for yourself to drive over. The controls for the riders aren't the most responsive, I honestly wasn't expecting it to be. It's a pretty solid title for this kind of game though and it can often be found for really cheap on sale! If you're looking at this and know you like these kinds of construction games, you'll like this one too. If you've never played one before, give it a shot anyway, it's cheap enough, you may find you love it!

Fun physics game. My only complaint (and it's very, very minor) is that the riders/skiers are awkward to control at times making a level more about the skill of the rider/skier (user) than the contraption you built.

I am unable to continue playing this game due to a real life ski-lift accident which dismembered 3 of my legs and 2 of my arms. A fleeting glance at the name even sends me down a slippery slope.
