Released for the Game Boy Color, SnowCross is a racing game developed by Vicarious Vision and published by Vatical Entertainment.

Vicarious Vision also made SpongeBob SquarePants: Legend of the Lost Spatula, Spider-Man and Barbie: Magic Genie Adventure for the GBC.

SnowCross is a single-player game, so it's one to enjoy at your own pace.

Pick it if…

  • you want to race and compete
  • you have time for a quick session (under an hour, or endless arcade fun)
  • you've played the GBC hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you want a story or exploration rather than laps
  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing SnowCross is like

Racing games range from realistic driving to kart racers with weapons and shortcuts. Races are short, making them great for quick sessions and split-screen rivalries.

Tip for newcomers: Learn each track's racing line and braking points; in kart racers, item strategy matters as much as driving.
