I recently spent time in a mountain youth hostel, which offered a choice of hikes up nearby peaks together with the regulation climber’s breakfast of imploded sausage plus violently oversugared orange juice. The worst thing that happened to me there was that I bunked next to an older German man who talked in his sleep. He sounded pretty distressed about something, possibly the sausages. I’ll be inflicting far worse on my guests in Above the Snow, a tycoon management game in which you build, decorate and populate an alpine resort.
This sounds like a fun and unique twist on hiking! The combination of adventure and strategy in a game like Above the Snow must make for an interesting experience. It’s great to see how gaming can bring outdoor activities to life in a new way.
