The first of two games of this title. Interestingly, it is one of the few games that have had a sequel released but have not been retired.

Game play is something like Battle Ships. Players' pieces are arranged randomly on a board, each piece forming part of the player's snow army. Peices include an ice palace, a catapult, a giant snowman, and a cannon. Each turn, the player chooses one position on their opponent's board to attack. At the same time, your opponent launches their snowball. 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.

There are ten challengers, and as you progress through the game, you are awarded bronze, silver and then finally gold trophies for your efforts.

It costs 100 NP per round to play.
