Steep

Steep knows how to keep you busy, how to show you just enough that you’ll want to go take a look yourself. It knows to give you lots of multiplayer grouping activities, exhaustive analysis tools, fancy replay options, friends challenges, leaderboards, ghosts, a G-force meter, sassy avatars, unlockable sasquatch costumes, backpack stickers, progression tracks, and even quests for each peak.

Steep is a game that's never really sure what it is, and its vagueness and lack of meaningful rewards causes it to suffer in any comparisons to the likes of SSX. But there's a quiet thrill to exploring the Matterhorn and Mont Blanc, and snowed-in Alpine villages.
