Ski or Die Review by: kramer4077 - 9/10

Ski or Die...Winter Fun!


Thanks for reading my review of Ski or Die for Nintendo! --kramer4077

Overall: 9/10--What's a young girl to do on a cold, snowy night in Wisconsin?  Stay home and Play Ski or Die of course!  This game is a classic for the NES from my childhood!  There are five mini-games for you to try.  You can play them individually or group them together in a tournament.  However you play, Downhill Blitz, Innertube Thrash, Acro Aerials, Snowball Blast, and the Snowboard Half-Pipe games can keep you busy for hours.  It's fun to try to beat a friend!  Snowball Blast and Downhill Blitz were my two favorite mini-games in Ski or Die.  If you have played Skate or Die, you will enjoy this game since they have a similar mini-game tournament style to them.  I hope you give Ski or Die a try!  Here are some specifics about the game:

Graphics: 8/10--The graphics are pretty decent for a Nintendo game.  There are lots of snowy backgrounds.  The other kids and creatures looks pretty funny in the Snowball Blast games.  You shouldn't have any trouble seeing your score or images during game-play.  This is coming from someone who used to play this on a 12-inch TV :)

Sound:  8/10--The sounds and music are great for a NES game.

Addictiveness:  9/10--Well, I wanted to play this every year in the chilly winter around Christmas when I was a kid, so yes, it's rather addictive.  I love games where you can compete with others.  If you're competitive, you will love Ski or Die as well.  It's more fun to play against a human opponent if you can find somebody.  The one-player mode can be fun as well.

Story:  There really is no story since you are competing in those five different winter events.  You can play a tournament mode and try to win the tournament, but there isn't a story with it.

Depth:  7/10--The five events are Downhill Blitz, Innertube Thrash, Acro Aerials, Snowball Blast, and the Snowboard Half-Pipe.  These events can keep you busy for awhile, especially if you play with a friend.  However, I had to drop this rating a bit since there are only the five events to continue to play over and over.  It would have been cool to have extra games or other features to unlock, but this game is over 20 years old and that concept probably wasn't developed at that time.

Difficulty:  8/10--Some of the events aren't that difficult.  The games are easy to get the hang of. However, after you've played this game for awhile, you will have blisters on your thumbs especially if you're using a retro NES controller, and this makes game-play somewhat difficult :)  The Acro Aerials game is probably the most difficult since you are getting scored on performing acrobatic moves in the air.  The Snowball Blast can be challenging too since you are moving directions, trying to hit kids and creatures with snowballs very quickly.  All in all, there is just the right amount of difficulty to keep the game interesting and not at all frustrating.
