1.5 RELEASED


Snowreal v1.5 is ready to be downloaded for PC and Playstation3!


Snowreal now features a whole new racing gametype with only one rule: Whoever reaches the finish line first, wins. To help you with this task, you are equipped with the brand new snow cannon to knock your opponents off their boards. Beware, as there are various obstacles on the course that could block your way anytime. And that's not all. There are many more features, such as: enhanced visuals, optimized splitscreen experience, and grinding! You are able to grind on anything you come across - metal, stone, wood etc.
For fans of the good old time trial mode and trick competition, there still is the "Snowreal Time Trial" gametype.

Have fun boarding, and may your enemy eat snow ;-)

Bad news - Censorship

Due to federal regulations, there will be no future releases of Snowreal and we will have to take down the site. The mod has been rated as too violent for people at any age.
All actions against this unfair case have been unsuccessful so far...
