Computer Entertainer reviewed the Commodore 64 disk in October 1985, rating it 4 of 4 for graphics and 4 for play value and recommending it, as "every bit as spectacular as the two Summer Games programs" and "another superb piece of programming from Epyx". It listed seven events for 1 to 8 players and gave the price as about $40, with Apple II and Macintosh versions coming soon.p. 4 (image 4), Winter Games reviewp. 4 (image 4), Winter Games reviewp. 4 (image 4), Winter Games reviewp. 4 (image 4), Winter Games reviewp. 4 (image 4), Winter Games reviewp. 4 (image 4), Winter Games reviewMagazine

Computer Entertainer's front-page chart had the Commodore 64 version at number 7 in its Top Ten of October 1985 and at number 1 in its Top Fifteen of December 1985. In its Top Twenty of April 1986 the Macintosh version stood at number 5 and the Apple II version at number 8.
