The Austrian Ski Game is About to Start

Time for a virtual World Cup for all ski fans! The Austrian Ski Game (ASG) opens its skiing season on November 5 and can be played free of charge on smartphones, desktops and laptops. A downhill race in the lovely Zillertal valley opens the ASG. And between November 19 and 20, you can already earn the first World Cup points. But first things first.

With the online game Austrian Ski Game, ASG for short, the Austrian Tourist Office „Österreich Werbung“ sets the tone for a winter vacation in the Alpine republic. The game is localised for German-speaking regions, the Netherlands and the Czech Republic. An English version makes it possible for an international audience to participate from all over the world.

Aside from a free training mode, the World Cup will be staged on four racecourses: You can collect points in the Zillertal, at the Ötscher-Hochkar, in Gastein and in Schladming. Between the various races, a break of two to three weeks leaves enough time to qualify for the next race weekend. The gameplay also allows the replay of your own run from different camera perspectives.

Pay attention: Aside from dynamic weather effects which significantly influence performance, you also have to optimize your ski settings. But don’t worry, we won’t leave you alone. You’ll find frequent help and tutorials from experts so that hobby players can focus on enjoying the actual race.
