The Games: Summer Challenge

The Games: Summer Challenge is the warm weather sequel to The Games: Winter Challenge, and it was developed by MindSpan. Accolade published it in 1992 for DOS (Genesis in 1993). Summer Challenge is based on the game engine and gameplay of the first one, and it features the same easy-to-use interface.

Summer Challenge features the warm weather Olympic events Archery, Javelin, Equestrian, 400 Meter Hurdles, High Jump and Pole Vault, Cycling, and Kayak. Like its predecessor, it has a Training and a Tournament mode. You can practice until you are ready to compete, and then you can compete with up to ten opponents, human or computer. You can now do instant replays of your favorite moments and store them. Anyone who is into sports and/or enjoyed the Winter Challenge will want to give this one a try.
