Game modes

Team battle

Red versus Blue. Knock out the other team to score — the team with the most knockouts when the timer runs out wins.

Free-for-all

Every snowballer for themselves. Top the scoreboard by the end of the match.

Matches last five minutes, then a new one starts — often on a different map.

Snowballs and health

You carry a handful of snowballs. They refill slowly on their own, twice as fast while you crouch, and instantly when you walk over a snow pile. Every hit takes some of your health; at zero you are knocked out and jump back in a few seconds later.

Earning snowflakes

Every match pays out snowflakes — more for a high finish and for staying alive, plus a bonus for winning and for your first match of the day. Spend them in the lobby shop on characters.

Tips for your first matches

  • Keep moving. A standing target is an easy target.
  • Crouch behind cover to refill — never reload in the open.
  • Lead your throws: aim where people are going, not where they are.
  • Grab power-ups early, and save Hot Cocoa for emergencies.
  • Learn each map: avalanches, drawbridges and snow cannons can win a fight for you.
  • Hit a bear and it chases you — lead it into your enemies.
