We also posted our Lonely Mountains: Downhill review early last month. You can read it here. The game is available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam.
Lonely Mountains: Downhill is an incredibly satisfying indie experience that ties together white-knuckle mountain biking with a relaxing kickback feel. It’s one of the more addictive indie experiences I’ve played in the last couple years, with lasting power that should carry it through much of the next year.
Before giving the pedal its very first push, I fell in love with the art design for this game. It’s beautiful blend of polygonal claymation and depth blurring is appealing to the eye. It’s simple. The color palette is pastel in nature, but muted to the point where gameplay always takes center stage.
