Snow Wars is a PHP-based game that plays similar to Battleship. Players' pieces are arranged randomly on a board, each piece forming part of the player's snow army. Pieces include an ice palace, a catapult, a giant snowman, a cannon, and two snowmen. Each turn, the player chooses one position on their opponent's board to attack. At the same time, your opponent launches an attack on a spot on your board. Wherever your snowball landed, you will be able to see the ground beneath it on your map of your opponents army, and this can help you hit the rest of an object (some objects take up more than one co-ordinate). Whoever destroys their opponent's army first wins.
This game also has a sequel, Snow Wars 2. It is one of the few games with a sequel that has not been retired. The sequel is a flash game unlike the original Snow Wars.
Strategy[edit]
The higher level opponents are incredibly good guessers, so the odds are stacked against you. If you hit any of the other pieces don't bother taking them out until the two snowmen have been found. Basically one needs to blank the board until one finds the two snowmen, who only take up one square. If you're lucky, you may find the two snowmen and all the other pieces very quickly and manage to pull out a win.
