Ski Run offers a timed ski descent in which the player must dodge flags, trees, or other obstacles while gaining speed downhill, within the small group of winter-sports games in the Atari 2600 library. Its pure-reflex mechanic likens it to the console's other time-trial racing games, though with snow as an unusual setting. It's one of the many generic sports titles that rounded out the 2600 catalog, remembered today mainly by collectors documenting the era's winter-sports variants.
