Steeplechase
Atari 2600 · 1983
About this game
Steep is an open world winter sports game based around four extreme sports: paragliding, skiing, snowboarding and wingsuit flying.
The game was launched with a mountain in the Alps to explore, but another set in Alaska was added for free at a later time.

The player is free to explore and can walk around.
At any moment it is possible to switch to one of the four sports and continue that way.
There is no linear path to follow, but by unlocking base camps, spotting drop zones and accessing new challenges by leveling up, steady progress along an increased difficulty level is possible.
At any moment the player can enter a top-down mountain view to quickly move between spots or challenges.
Previous trails can be revisited, there are replays and it is possible to design and share challenges for other players.
Players can also appear in each other's worlds to be invited to fly, ride of ski together.
Each sport has different controls and possibilities.
It is possible to perform a large amount of stunts, mainly while skiing and snowboarding.
Different types of challenges focus on fast times, large points through tricks or exploration.
During wingsuit flying the focus is on avoiding obstacles and staying close to the ground to score points.
Paragliding is more about navigating the best course to reach checkpoints.
Most of them are specific for a sport, such as Big Air, Forest Slaloms or Proximity Flying.
While a character cannot die there is a health system based on sustained g-forces and recovering after a fall takes some time.
In most challenges up to three medals can be earned and they can retried infinitely.
Next to overall player progress and new spots unlocked that way, a large amount of gear is made available gradually to customize the different characters.
Overall progress is done in six categories based on the playing style: Bone Collector, Explorer, Extreme Rider, Freerider, Freestyler, and Pro Rider.

About Atari 2600
The Atari 2600 (1977) was the console that first proved interchangeable game cartridges could sustain a mass-market business, effectively founding the home console industry as we know it. Most common 2600 titles are inexpensive today given how many units and copies were sold, but a small number of extremely rare releases — including several from Atari's own late-era prototype and licensed titles — are among the most valuable cartridges in retro collecting.
Gamevaro tracks Steeplechase for Atari 2600 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Steeplechase to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This A2600 release dates back to 1983.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Steeplechase, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Atari 2600 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
