The twist is that you have to create three snowballs---one small, one medium, and one large---by pushing them over snow, then stack them on top of each other. Make them the wrong size and it won't work.

    The game is short, but it's a perfect length for such a simple concept, with no new mechanics added... except one. There's a secret postgame which takes the basic concept and adds a new twist. I won't spoil it, but just know that "The End" doesn't mean the end. I'm docking one point because it's unclear that the postgame even exists, and I nearly put the game down without finding it.

    Otherwise, if you enjoy this kind of game, you won't regret picking this up and spending the couple of hours on it it will take to beat.    … Full Review »

    Lo bueno: su precio, su simpleza y el reto que supone
    Lo malo: mecánicas repetitivas, y una curva de dificultad poco conseguida.
