From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
|
Winter Challenge is a video game that portrays seven winter sports that are competed in during the Winter Olympics. This game however was not endorsed by the International Olympic Committee, the United States Olympic Committee, or any similar organization for any other country. It was released for the Mega Drive/Genesis and DOS.
The game offered a Training mode where you can participate in a single event as one player. Once completed you could go again, return to the main menu, or watch an instant replay of your performance in the event. The other mode was Tournament mode where you could create and participate with up to 10 players. If less than ten players were created, the computer would provide the rest. Once the players were selected, the game shows an Opening Ceremonies clip and then took you to a tournament screen where you could see your icons for the seven events, as well as four button that would show your current standings, start a new tournament, enter a password to return to an existing tournament, or return the main menu.
