This game is worth getting its so amazing awesome magnificent good eye catching my favourite part is the snowboarding 🏂 i’ve never been to the snow or I only watch Olympics on TV 📺

### 5/5 — It’s awesome

*2020-02-25*

Kalllllll!

### 4/5 — No podium no hockey

*2019-06-21*

For some events there is no podium so I don’t know the standings and also there is ice hockey penalty shots but not an actual game

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time or money

*2019-04-18*

This game is terrible. Not worth the money. It was only two dollars but not worth that. The hockey game is a shootout not a game and there is no rhyme or reason where the puck is gonna go. The skating race has a clitch that once the race is over the game doesn’t realize the race is over and you can’t move on to the next competition.  The graphics are terrible. I want my money back.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2019-02-23, version 2.0*

Amazing

### 2/5 — Très décevant

*2019-02-20*

J’ai acheté la version payante mais la précision n’est pas au rendez-vous. Contrôle approximatif très frustrant. Bonne idée mais programmation à revoir. Quel dommage !!

### 1/5 — Beim Eisschnelllauf bleibt das Spiel hängen

### 4/5 — Good game
