Alpiner is a 1982 mountain-climbing game for the TI-99/4A Home Computer. The player races to climb six peaks of increasing height: Mt. Hood, Matterhorn, Kenya, McKinley, Garmo and Everest. Obstacles to ascent include trees, brush fires, wild animals, avalanches, and the Abominable Snowman.

Tropes used in Alpiner include:

• Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti: At the top of Mt. Everest is the Abominable Snowman--on skis!
• Death Mountain: The entire game.
• Hard Mode Filler: The eighteen levels consist of the same six mountains repeating with faster falling hazards and decreasing time limits.
• Public Domain Soundtrack: "Anitra's Dance" by Edvard Grieg.
