The lively, joyous look of Snow Rider 3D is one of its best qualities. The game is particularly appealing during the holidays because it is placed against a snowy, mountainous backdrop with Christmas trees, decorations, and dazzling lights. The charm is increased by the comical and whimsical nature of the Snow Rider 3D characters, sleds, and animations.
