SNOW DISCOVERY – 20th Anniversary – Author Times – Trackmania

Views: 205

Somewhat surprisingly for many players, Nadeo has brought some new features to the game for its 20th anniversary, surprising players with a trilogy from the good old days of Trackmania:

The first of the three upcoming episodes introduces the Snow car, which plays like its 20-year-old counterpart with modern twists.
In addition, a new road surface – wood – has been developed, giving you a new unique gameplay experience to the classic Stadium car.
To complement this big update, you can now rediscover the original atmosphere thanks to 100 new 3D blocks and items created to tribute the very first Trackmania Game

Also don’t forget to vote, at our Poll at the end, for the hardest Author Time / Author Medal.
