SkiFree is a computer game created by Chris Pirih, a Microsoft programmer, that was released in the Microsoft Entertainment Pack software bundle. A relatively simple skiing game, it is best remembered for the “Abominable Snowman” that appears after the player has completed the course. The yeti-like creature attempts to chase down and then eat the skier. Pirih had originally created the game for his own personal use, but a manager at Microsoft saw him playing it and requested that Microsoft be able to release the game commercially. In recent years, Pirih has developed an updated version of the game compatible with 32 bit operating systems.
