The closest I'll get to the Winter Olympics

Having had the Winter Olympics on over the last week, I was reminded of a game that was given to us by my uncle Brian many years ago - it was released to tie in with the ones held in Calgary 22 years ago. The awkwardly-titled "The Games: Winter Edition" was released in 1988 by Epyx on various formats, though we had the Kixx re-release on the PC, and I remembered playing it a lot but being slightly mystified as to how most of it worked. At first I was doubtful that I could find any trace of it on the Internet, but I looked on Abandonia and there it was, so I downloaded it to see if I could be any more successful at it now that I'm a distressing number of years older.
( Have a guess, go on. )
