Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands 

 

Family Friendly Gaming was given a digital download code for Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands on the Nintendo Switch. Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands is also on the Personal Computer (PC) on that Steam platform. There are physical copies of Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands available on the Nintendo Switch which will interest the millions upon millions within the physical copy movement.

Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands is a minimalistic skiing and snowboarding video game. There are twelve maps for families to explore if they can unlock them. As players progress in Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands they must earn ski pass points. That allows them to use the ski lifts and access new and different areas. How do we earn these points? We must complete the race courses in a specific amount of time. The faster you do the better the score. We need to earn gold, silver and bronze in Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands.

I had one major problem with Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands. The camera in Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands likes to swing around. Which can be a massive problem when I am going left and right on a snowboard. Can you figure out what goes wrong there for me? Why yes as the camera swings around my left and right are no longer where they once were and I miss turns, flags, gates, get stopped, etc. This caused me to lose out over and over again on certain courses.

Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands is one gig in terms of memory size. The graphics are on the small side. Try to avoid hitting other skiers and snowboarders since hitting them can cost you time. I was also able to easily go up hills because I could not tell graphically it was a hill there. Miss one gate and you fail the course. Thankfully the rewind will start you from the beginning. It would have been great if the rewind brought me right before the mistake was made like how it works in the Forza Horizon franchise.

If you can deal with the camera and control issues then there are some cool areas to explore. Families can find backpacks all over the place in these areas. There are also some cool jumps and tricks that can be performed. Sadly there is a bit of violence, and bad language within Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands. Grand Mountain Adventure Wonderlands certain does fit under the indie umbrella.
