Maybe your imagination has been fired recently by watching the skiing in the Winter Olympics on television. Perhaps you would like to have a go yourself. Well now you can, by playing Slalom, one of the best new games on the market. From the starting point, you weave your way through the gates and down the course to the finish. The conditions are often icy and the occasional large snowball provides an additional hazard that will often be your undoing.

And your reward for completing the course? You start from the top again, but this time the gates are closer together, the twists and turns tighter, and the course is now really difficult.

Crashes are quite spectacular as the skier tumbles down the slope all arms and legs. This game offers superbly smooth and fast graphics, with a high score table, but maybe there is just one little niggle - even at its easiest, Slalom is perhaps just a little too hard.
