Winter Heat

The game is a typical Winter-sports game, in the line of those released by Epyx but with a more arcade feel.

Speed Skiing: A simple dashing event where the goal is to descend the hill as fast as possible (in speeds over 200 km/h).

Action is reduced to mash the button to gain speed.

Ski Jumping: Composed by four parts: The run up (mash the button to gain speed), the jump (selecting the angle), the flight (mash the button to gain extra length) and the landing (pressing the action button too early will lose valuable meters, too late will cost the jump).

Downhill: A simplified version of the real downhill event.

It's impossible to miss the gates, and the challenge is to get a strong start-up, keep a straight path not losing speed hitting the fences and hitting the action button to jump hills perfectly.

Short Track Speed Skating: A straightforward event where the directional pad controls the direction of the athlete along the speed button to control the pace.

As the event runs for over 40 seconds, it's possible to hold second position, making the opponent cut air resistance which allows the player to reach fastest speeds with less button presses.

Skeleton: The first event in the ice tunnels, it requires a fast run-up followed by a strong entrance in the tunnels.

By pressing the action button it's possible to slow down the sled and make more controlled turns, or the athlete can fall from it, which not only loses time but also requires a small run-up.

Slalom: Just like the Downhill, it's impossible to mis

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Winter Heat, loose is €28.84 and CIB is €36.08 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Winter Heat is currently worth €28.84 loose, versus €51.02 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
