Torino 2006 is the official game of the XX Winter Olympic Games held in Turin, Italy, and the eight in the line of multi-event IOC licensed titles. The game includes 15 events scattered on 8 disciplines: Alpine Skiing (Downhill, Super G, Giant Slalom and Slalom), Ski Jump (Normal and Large hill), Speed Skating (500m, 1000m and 1500m), Women's Biathlon, Nordic Combined, Bobsled (Womens' 2 and Mens' 4), Luge and Cross Country. All venues were modelled after their real counterparts.

Gameplay requires more reflexes than the button-bashing of other sports games. Alpine Skiing is a matter of skill and quick reflexes, as the player has to choose when to crouch to gain speed and when to carve the snow for sharper turns. These events are based on a simplified version of the engine that power Ski Alpin 2006 . The penalty for missing gate depends on the difficulty level chosen, with varying time penalties for each level.

Ski Jump requires the player to keep balance while descending the hill, jumping at the correct time, counteracting wind effects for maximum distance, and landing in perfect telemark fashion. Cross Country and Biathlon are relaxed disciplines where all that counts is keeping the best trajectory possible.

Cross Country and Biathlon have similarities with each other, but Biathlon also includes two shooting sessions. Skating disciplines require a strong start and accurate button pressing as the skater makes each step. Bobsled and Luge are similar, with differences in startup procedures and minimal path changes.

Nordic Combined is a Large hill ski jump that sets the start time for each competitor in the Cross country section. The player can compete in all 15 events or just 9, create their own competition, or unlock additional strips by completing challenges.
