Yeti Strikes Back

You control the yeti from a side view, moving left and right across a snowy slope. Your main tool is the snowball. You press a key to pack one, then throw it to knock skiers off their feet. Sometimes a skier would get buried in a drift, and you'd have to dig down to find them. You could also duck behind obstacles to avoid the professor character who patrolled the area. The game moved at a quick pace, and the challenge came from managing these actions while staying out of sight. It felt like a mischievous, frantic scramble against the clock.
