Skip it if you…

- Players who do not want to manage prices, guest happiness, facilities, and daily resort tasks
Our take on Winter Resort Simulator 2
Rather than centering on skiing as a sport, the game places players behind the resort’s infrastructure. Ropeway procedures, snowmaking, vehicle work, guest management, and map construction replace the usual focus on downhill competition.
What is Winter Resort Simulator 2?
Run a ski resort through daily operations, including slope preparation, ropeway management, snowmaking, vehicle use, and facility investment.
Operate chairlifts and gondolas, learn cable-car procedures through interactive tutorials, and modify maps with the in-game world editor. The economy includes prices and guest happiness, while changing weather and a day/night cycle affect the resort environment. Multiplayer allows shared resort management, with players dividing tasks or riding together in vehicles. The game includes snowcats, snowmobiles, SUVs, a pickup, and a snow cannon. Player-created ropeways, vehicles, missions, maps, and resorts can be downloaded or shared through Steam Workshop and used in single-player or multiplayer.
