About

Summer Games allows up to eight players to compete in a series of summer themed Olympic events. The gameplay is similar to the other entries in Epyx "games" series. Each player can choose a country to represent, and then takes turns competing in various events to see who will win the gold medal! The game allows you to compete in all of the events sequentially, choose a few events, choose just one event, or practice an event. The events available vary slightly depending on the platform, and may include: - Pole vault - Platform diving - 4x400 meter relay - 100 meter dash - Gymnastics - Freestyle swimming - Skeet shooting - 100 meter freestyle - Rowing

Track & Field

Before 'Summer Games' brought its multi-event spectacle, 'Track & Field' laid the groundwork for competitive button-mashing and strategic timing in Olympic disciplines, offering a pure, unadulterated challenge that still resonates today.

QWOP

While 'Summer Games' offers a broad spectrum of Olympic events, QWOP distills the essence of athletic struggle into a single, hilariously difficult 100-meter dash, demanding strategic limb coordination and a deep understanding of physics to even move forward.

SkiFree

Though not an Olympic simulator, SkiFree captures the simple, addictive thrill of a single-player winter sport, where strategic navigation and quick reflexes are key to avoiding obstacles and achieving high scores, much like mastering a specific event in 'Summer Games'.
