January 17, 2008 6:00 AMDrop Point Alaska is the latest game to be featured on the Apple Games website. Drop Point gives players the chance to challenge their snowboarding skills on an Alaskan mountain, conquering weather, obstacles, and a variety of mini-challenges. The Apple Games article features an overview of the game as well as a list of tips and tricks to give players an edge.Drop Point Alaska challenges you to master the mountain’s ten drop points, starting with the low-elevation one known as Kindergarten. Variable time-of-day and weather ensure a unique experience each time you set out to explore one of the largest virtual peaks found in a snowboarding game. Master each drop point’s challenges, such as pulling off a 5,000-point flip and staying airborne for six seconds, to unlock higher elevations. You access each drop point by helicopter, and once you’ve unlocked all the challenges, you’ll be able to pilot it to any location on the mountain and bail out. Miles of terrain offer plenty of natural features for pulling off tricks, and you’ll also find pipes and other manmade structures for grinding, skateboard-style. String together tricks for high-point combos and see how long you can hold them. While snowboarding, you’ll come across 100 mini-challenges broken into two categories: Stick a Trick and Trick or Die. In each one, you try to own the challenge by exceeding another rider’s accomplishments, which you view as a replay before you start. In Stick a Trick, your goal is to match the current trick and go one better to assume ownership. Trick or Die tasks you with holding a combo longer than the previous rider.Click over to the link below to read the rest of the feature article.Apple Games: Drop Point AlaskaMacSoftDrop Point: Alaska
