Endlich ein Skipark Manager im Stiele von Skiparkmanager 2001 und Val di sere 2003. Über die Grafik lässt sich sicherlich diskutieren, aber ansonsten macht das Spiel sehr viel Spaß. Vorausgesetzt man mag solche Spiele. Ich konnte bisher keine krassen Bugs wie bei den Beiden Vorgängern (Skifahrer verlassen ohne Grund das Gebiet) entdecken. Sicherlich läuft noch nicht alles rund, allerdings ist das für ein Ein-Mann-Projekt auch nicht verwunderlich. Wer Freude daran hat, sein eigenes kleines Skigebiet hochzuziehen und kein Grafikwunder erwartet sollte hier zu greifen.

Sorry, aber Pendelbahnen sind keine Umlaufbahnen! Und die Grafik ist auch nicht mehr auf dem aktuellsten Stand. Als Seilbahnkenner fallen mir da schon die Haare als, wenn ich eine Bahn dieses Spieles sehe. Und "Blocked Terrain" nervt, da du da nicht mal ne Seilbahn drüberbauen kannst!!!

Gebt euer Geld lieber für was besseres aus.

Nice game, although there are bugs and the controll and building of new routes is very tricky at times. I like it, reminds me of Ski Park Manager back in the days.

cooles spiel

Ehrlich? Kann man sich sparen, selbst als Tycoon Fan.

Das Spiel ist zwar durch den Hinweis mit dem Downgrade des Grafikkarten Treibers endlich spielbar geworden nur die Grafik läst zu wünschen übrig und das Spiel verhalten ist auch nicht das eines Tycoon wert es sind alle Items bzw gebäude von anfang an zu haben es gibt keinerlei steigerungen im Gameplay und in der Campangne werden keine bzw sehr schlecht beschriebene Hinweise gegeben wie man weiter kommt. Das Tut ist gar nicht Funktionsfähig nach dem man es endlich gefunden hat. Das für einen Tycoon wertvolle Wirtschaftssystem fehlt irgenwie ganz.

P.S. die Grafik ingame entspricht nicht den Videos und eine möglichkeit der Abfragung der Tastatur belegung fehlt, wäre von Vorteil zBsp. zum drehen von Gebäuden usw.

deswegen nur 3 /10 Punkten von mir und einen Negative bewertung
Grafik 4/10

Generally I like games like this. I really been looking forward to seeing a tycoon in this area for some time and for a short time the game is a neat idea. But thats the theory. This game has quite a few problems that is unknown if they will get fixed.

Once a day every day (It's hard to know if its by day, basicially its whenever the daily quarter is over) you will have stacks of skiers go to the top of your staging area, only to go all the way back down to the bottom and exit the park through any terrain imaginable. Plus there is not very many things to build (Why no hotels? Bus or airports? Taxi service? Multiple kinds of vehicles for each building type?)

At first you are confused, and if you like me start off in sandbox, you will probably (maybe not all will) need to go to campaign and try a few missions to understand the basics. You won't learn much, the tutorials are rushed. Each map designed is poor, no random generating maps so you will have to pick the same maps over and over if you play the game for some time (low replayability), skiers look bugged (If you place a lift wrong the skiers will take the lift downhill and attempt to slide down the hill upwards which makes them stuck), and you make little income from the skiers. Charge too much, less will come.

In some games this might just be the challenge, but after some time you realize you can't afford what you need to run the park in the first place. So you constantly restart in the hopes you attract more customers. But then you realize all of you skiers are stuck in one spot so you let them stack up hoping they will die only for the next day they magically decide they can go through four mountain passes on skis and snowboards through forests and nothing but dry land and pulling out your hair wanting to grab your screen and throw it across the room while yelling "Stop SCAMMING ME". Yea, sorry, pro and cons.

Pro

Potential

Quite a few maps and some hidden bonus ones apparently

Cons

Small maps (Lower graphics requirements should mean bigger map capability in todays age)

Bugged Skiers

Bugged lifts

Not many building options

Must spam same buildings (What, I need fifty small 10 car garages in the same spot)

Need more ways to make income and attract tourists (HOTELS)

Slope creation mechanics look barbaric (Looks like something a child would draw.)

Not enough information sometimes to determine why you are not getting or losing customers.

Low graphics (This can be turned into a pro but at this time and stage the game is just so limited that it should have been put on better graphics. Now if the game is really expanded than I would accept the game in this condition but really, it does not deserve to be placed higher.)

Random bugs (I think the game has issues running on more powerful machines but so far no crashes for me, just random error messages every once in awhile.)

Map scrolling issues (sometimes in tutorial or when starting a new map the game prevents you from zooming out very far so you see a very small stretch of map that you have a hard time doing anything with. Trying a different map fixes the problem.

The game has a few issues that are difficult to reproduce so the bugs are not really a problem the developers will have a easy time fixing. But it should be run a little bit more before releasing. Also I played this game for a couple of hours. The game personally should be played in small doses. I would not recommond this game unless you love tycoon games and want to catch them all (oops wrong game). And for those who want to bash me for not playing more for the review, well, I'm sorry but the game is just too simple. It's not like dragon age, in this game you see all your options in the beginning of the game, not halfway through it. You don't research new things. You don't craft. You just build a few buildings and hope for success. Simple

Also, how come there is no town interaction? Or even town growth or anything that we can do in that line that would increase our customer growth?

The game doesn't work. No one should have to downgrade their nvidia card driver. This game should be taken off steam until it is fixed. With that said I did change the card driver. This game has very little to do in it. There are very few buildings and you take a very small role in creating a lift chair and adding slopes. The create slope mechanic is straight forward but very limited. Trails need to go from top to bottom starting at the end a chair lift and ending at the start of a chair lift. Due to this alot of terrain is wasted. The role of the player in maintaining the resort is very limited as well. You can add a snow gun and place a snow cat garage. The maps you work with are also small.

Overall there is potential here but the game just misses. For $10 I would not recommend this game, for $.99 - 5.00 you will get an hour of almost fun out of it.

Do not buy this game, The developer has abandoned the game. Its really a trashy ass game, unless someone can learn how to mod it, its ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Ski resort tycoon had better graphics.

I love this game. I would definetely recommend to anybody that has a love for skiing or just designing a resort.

Pros
1. Unlimited Mode is very fun
2. All around great game that has no severe bugs that stand out
3. Free Ride is an excellent feature that allows you to enjoy the resort

Cons
1. Campaign too hard
2. Skiers get stuck in some situations and all go into a huge clump
3. Lifts don't have realistic range and they can't go over blocked terrain, in most cases

Things to Add (In order of importance)

1. Ski Patrol needs to be improved
2. Unlimited mode unlocked from start
3. Map Editor would be very helpful, or just a tutorial on how to make your own and put it into the files yourself
4. Add more lifts such as a Triple Chair, High Speed Quad, and High Speed Six. Also add mid-stations and down-loading for gondolas and such
5. In unlimited mode, skiers cannot fall and get injured
6. Can choose whether terrain is blocked or not
7. An option to make the run colors Green for beginner, Blue for intermediate, and Black for advanced/expert
8. Make unlimited mode available on the addon maps
9. More run types (Double Green, Double Blue, Double Black)
10. More buildings such as a lodge, a sit-down restaraunt, hotels, cabins, stores, and walkways
11. Make bridges to allow runs to go over or under a road
12. Terrain Parks
13. Exposed rocks to make realistic chutes and an option to make a bowl (A zoning tool to drag and area that is a bowl)
14. In free ride, you should be able to actually be on the lift, not just zipping to the top of it
15. Ability to create more roads
16. An option before starting a game to have the map full with trees, some trees, or no trees (I love trees and I have to fill the whole map with them so I can have the trees :)

Overall, awesome game. You did a really good job on this and I wan't to see this game do really well. Thanks!!
