Jun 16, 2020Freedom and exploration in a bike game? Wow. Lonely Mountains: Downhill is more than just a pretty game. It's an experience and it can be as relaxing or challenging as you want. We wish there would be a new saga here.

Oct 22, 2019Lonely Mountains: Downhill is easily the best mountain biking game available. True, there’s not a lot of competition, but even if there was it would be hard to top. The terrain is a blast to explore, each bike opens up a different style of play and the atmosphere is about as close to perfect as you could hope for. The progression system to unlock new bikes takes a bit too long, and sometimes the bike physics get a bit wonky, but it’s hard to let that get in the way when the next trail opens up or a new shortcut reveals a path that knocks several seconds off the clock. The wilderness of Lonely Mountains: Downhill seems initially empty because there are no other people to be found, but they’d just get in the way of enjoying the peaceful serenity to be found in bouncing down the trail while holding on for dear life.

Nov 25, 2019Lonely Mountains is far from lonely, it rekindles a feeling of childhood. Of meeting with friends and exploring the woods, daring each other to take jumps or freewheel through water. It’s a game about being alone, by being at one with nature and the bike beneath you.

Nov 4, 2019Lonely Mountains: Downhill reminds me of many favorite games from my childhood. Not because it's a game with retro flair, but because it explains what was then due to the technical limits, a virtue - to pour with simple means and no frills a good idea in a fun gameplay.
