Chill is a snowboarding game developed by Silicon Dreams and published by Eidos Interactive for the Sony PlayStation in 1998. The game was also due to be released for the Sega Saturn, but was cancelled for unknown reasons.
The Saturn version of Chill was very close to release before it was axed, having been sent to the press for review and was expected to hit store shelves in early 1998. The United Kingdom's Sega Saturn Magazine even announced that a playable demo would feature in a future volume of Sega Flash, but these plans never materialised. They did, however, go on to review the game, giving it an 80% score.
The presumably finished version of Chill from January 1998 was dumped and released on the internet in early 2010. It is fully playable and depicts a game similar in nature to Steep Slope Sliders.
The reasons for cancelling the Saturn version of Chill are unclear, though were likely due to Eidos' plans to drop support for the Saturn. No North American or Japanese versions were ever announced, and the PlayStation release remained exclusive to Europe too.
