Anyone like snowmobiles?! well if you do then stay away from this,...and if you don't,...then stay away from this!

This weeks edition is an Amiga game by the name of Harricana - International Snowmobile Competition which has been requested by youtuber "RayC / Towerbridge" for It's absolute crud playability, ugly graphics and greedy price tag, controlling the damn snowmobile in this is beyond a joke, one touch and you're all over the place.

Anyone else experienced this back in the day?!

A shame, it is clear that there was a serious attempt behind this. But a game like this needs Lotus 2 framerates. And playability.

First time I see this game, but graphics looks pretty damn good to me.

Yeah its choppy, but the sprite work is quite decent and the scaling is also not bad.

"looks" pretty damned original, havent seen it before or anything like it, and yeah as mentioned, the framerate is whats hurting it.

Yeah, the art assets are really cute, especially the trees - I like them a lot.
The framerate is killing it today, but I reckon 25 yrs ago it wouldn't be so bad.

It has very distinct visuals.

No it really does look like it plays like ass

I'm not even going to try it out myself.
