Gamernode reviews We Ski

Eddie Inzauto reports:

''We Ski can be viewed as yet another "quasi-game" to grace the Nintendo Wii; something meant to appeal to a broader audience than much of the modern catalog of videogames. For those not seeking a deep, engaging experience, however, the game will provide a small and simple sandbox to play in, as well as the next worthwhile usage of the Wii's motion controls, not to mention its newest input device, the Balance Board.

Playing We Ski calls to mind another 2008 Wii release, Endless Ocean. The two share the premise of relaxed and lightly guided play, with few highlighted goals or big, motivational incentives. The difference lies in the fact that We Ski features a traditional gameplay mechanic (racing) that gamers have grown accustomed to over the years. Otherwise, We Ski is a game designed for players who are more interested in spending time using the game to create their own unique experience. In that regard, it is very faithful to the sport and pastime that it aims to recreate, as most skiers hit the slopes with no more specific goals in mind than to simply enjoy what they are doing - skiing.''
