The older ones among you may remember skifree, a sports game released in 1991 in the microsoft entertainment pack. and here it is, brought back to life in this new version, playable directly in your browser. skifree is a casual single-player sports simulator wherein the player uses the keyboard or the mouse to control a skier across a white background representing snow on a mountainside. the object of the game is to ski down an endless slope and avoid the obstacles (trees, stumps, snowboarders, etc.) when the player passes the 2,000-meter mark, the abominable snowman appears and starts to chase the player, eating him when it catches him! the 2d graphics give the game cool a retro feeling, but the gameplay is still addictive, and you can find yourself playing for hours to try and beat your current ski record!
