Final Assault is a mountaineering simulation game with a realism that will surprise you. You will find all the elements that characterize a mountain route: duration (day and night), season, snow consistency, fatigue, survival, dangers, impressive landscapes, abysses, glaciers, etc. From the beginning, the player must equip the climber with everything he needs to climb the chosen route. Each route is made up of a part of walking on the glacier, another of progression on the snowy slope and another on the rock. The danger is dying of cold and fatigue.

Story

You're in the Alps, ready to start off on an expedition to the highest peaks of Europe. And you're going to do it the hard way, avoiding the easy, well-marked tourist trails with their ladders and handholds. The more risky and difficult the route, the greater the challenge. That's why you're here.
