About
Octohill is a casual ski resort simulator where you can try to build and manage your own resort on one of the countless mountain maps. You will be drawing trails and terraforming slopes, managing finances, transportation, construction and maintenance, but the game main focus is on careful planning.
In Octohill, you are building your ski resort from scratch. You will be choosing best spots on the slopes, prepare terrain and mark areas for the trails, connect them to ski lifts and public roads and provide all the services your visitors look for. With intuitive building mechanics and fixed grid layout you may relax and focus on planning and creativity.
Your resort will attract very few visitors in the beginning, but as you cater to their needs your reputation will rise, allowing more people on your slopes and bigger incomes in your bills. Every skier has their own preferences and skills, keep that in mind when planning another expansion as you need to keep your resort profitable and your visitors satisfied.
Octohill comes with several default maps based on the real world locations such as French Alps or Rocky Mountains, which you can use to recreate one of the famous resorts. But if you get bored with them, you may also try highly customizable procedurally generated maps, or even use your own heightmap image.

This is a good ski resort simulator! It's fun, challenging, and rewarding. It has has an economic system, analytics, good integration of NPCs interacting with the resort, food/beverage, ski patrol, ticket sales, parking/transportation, lifts, operation management such as snow cat grooming, ski trail design, and much more. I think this game is better than other ski resort simulators. It has an actual economic system, unlike Skitopia. There is a lot you can do, keeping you entertained for hours. You design and build your ski runs, and they have different difficulties based on the terrain. There are many different types of lifts, from surface lifts to high speed gondolas and trams. What I love about this game is the creative control to create your own ski resort, and the ability to manage it. You're never done building, as you can always make changes and improvements. You have to figure out how to bring in more guests if your numbers are low, or grow your resort if there are too many guests and overcrowded. You're constantly monitoring guest satisfaction and trying to improve it. I think that makes a great ski resort simulator game! If you loved the old Sim City 2000 from back in the day, you'll love this game. It has an old feel, as objects are placed on tiles in a grid pattern. That is, unfortunately, the biggest downfall to this game. While the gameplay is fun, the graphics are not great. It looks like a game from the 90s. The terrain is also made of individual tiles, which is very limiting and looks terrible. This makes it hard to design and connect ski trails, place lifts and other objects. It's the only thing that is holding back this game from being incredible. Overall, this is a great game, a lot of fun, and I'd recommend playing. If they can make the terrain look smooth and connected, it would be even better.

You can feel that its a Passion project! The Graphics might be simple but it gives the a lot of charm! The whole game is Fun the Underlying simulation seems to make sense, and overall it feels really neat! AND as far as I can tell the game is still in active development
I love this game! The learning curve is steep and it needs some polishing and quality of life improvements (dev's working on it). But, for sure, it is the best skiing area building game out there!
This a surpringly good game, considering the low price and that it was made by only 1? person. Sure, it has its flaws: Like the terrain tool which does not always work in your favour. Same for streets etc. (also terrain-problem) Or missing QoL features like relocating a building after you realize you placed it on the wrong place or in a wrong direction. Also building slopes is kind of a hazzle because of the "blocky-ness" of this game. (luckily there is a tool to make building slopes easier) I even considered refunding it after 2 hours because I was frustrated but decided not to and instead try to understand how this game works. Right now the game will NOT hold your hand and cuddle you. (I am looking at YOU: "Tutorial-Help-Pictures") For example: I couldn't place the damn 2nd lift on the hill, took me some time to figure out it was because the first lift-tower in the valley was blocked by the "skiing zone") --> normally you get an info why you can't place it but the game only says something like "obstructed", where and why? Figure it out on your own ;) And the longer you play (I started alot of new games) the more you dive into it and begin to understand the physics etc. Another example: Why is the whole street jammed with 100s of cars and nothing isn't moving anymore? Oh, I just need to build a bus terminal not only a bus stop! I have both now = better!!1! Why is the street still full of cars??? Let my delete the old bus-stop.... Voilà now it works! and so on... On my last save (Japan map) I started at 18:00 'o clock and had to force myself to go to bed at 3:00 in the night. Got lost in expanding, trying new deep-snow-slopes and stalking visitors to get feedback what to improve. This game gets you when you are "in the zone" and crossed the 50% mark of knowledge you need to have. Snowtopia (abandoned!!!) may look more "appealing" on first glance but in reality Octohill is much more well designed. I know: another Ski-Tycoon is in the making *happy* but it will still take a while and if you are a fan of this niche, like me, you should consider supporting this game for this little price and give it a try. Don't "Youtube" the game! These "influencers with a free key" mostly only play the tutorial and kind of fail (like myself in the first 2 hours) That doesn’t do the game justice at all! Dev wanted to create this game because there were no good alternatives (Dev wrote this somewhere in the comments) and every sell motivates the Dev to improve this already good game. @dev: Thanks for 20+ hours of fun & pain - hope you can improve your vision and expand your game. Amen and out.
Its not interesting game .Economy in this game is stupid.You cant change any price or anything.
It's the best Steam snow and resort building game I've seen, but I'm looking forward to more updates because of what's coming.
Ya it's good
really nice and for me one of a kind game, once you get used to the terraform mechanics this is so fun!
The learning curve for this game is difficult. The wiki guide isn't great and it could use some polishing. However there is a great game underneath. Would love to see some shops / additional resort items added. Better terrain park features and smooth run control. Otherwise its a great little game
Takes time till you learn. But at the end its fun game
