About Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders
Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders blends a demanding downhill descent with a calm winter vibe. Players carve through deep snow, glide over ice lakes, and launch jumps while the soundscape encourages a relaxed pace.
The title adds online multiplayer, offering cooperative runs and competitive races for 2‑8 players, leaderboards, tricks, shortcuts, and a built‑in level editor for community‑created slopes.
01 / THE GUIDE
Game Modes
The game includes a single‑player mode where you descend the mountain alone, focusing on personal time and trick execution.
Online modes add a co‑op option, where a team shares limited checkpoints, and a versus option, where players race to the base.
- Try a solo run first to learn the course layout.
- Discuss checkpoint timing with teammates before starting co‑op.
02 / THE GUIDE
Online Multiplayer
Online play supports between two and eight participants, with multiplatform crossplay letting friends on different platforms ride together.
Both co‑op and versus sessions take place online.
- Ensure all players have the same game version before matchmaking.
- Use a voice chat to coordinate timing in fast races.

03 / THE GUIDE
Limited Checkpoints
Checkpoints are limited in number, so teams must carefully decide how to share them.
With only limited checkpoints to share, a fall makes their use a strategic element for co‑op runs.
- Plan with teammates when to use the limited checkpoints during a run.
- Discuss checkpoint use with teammates before starting a co‑op run.
04 / THE GUIDE
Leaderboard and Tricks
Players can perform tricks during jumps, and each run’s time is recorded on a global leaderboard for comparison with others.
Discovering shortcuts can also affect times, offering additional ways to improve a ranking without relying solely on tricks.
- Practice one trick repeatedly before adding it to a full run.
- Sketch potential shortcut routes to test them efficiently.
05 / THE GUIDE
Level Editor and Steam Workshop
The game includes a level editor that lets players design their own slopes and share them through the Steam Workshop.
Community‑created maps can be downloaded and played, extending content beyond the built‑in mountain.
- Begin with a simple hill layout to become familiar with the editor tools.
- Test your custom map in single‑player mode before publishing.
