Overview[edit]
The minigame takes place on the hat of a snowman. The solo player's objective is to use to freeze the team of three completely within the time limit of ten seconds. This action produces a violent blizzard. The team of three's objective is to survive the freezing blizzard produced by the solo player. Players must rub their respective characters with in order to warm them. There is a thermometer next to each player, indicating their body temperature. If one of the players is completely frozen, the character cannot be warmed anymore, and they freeze into a snowman. The solo player's chances of winning are completely dependent upon the strength of the blizzard, which in turn is dependent upon how hard they blow. The teammates' chances of winning are dependent upon their characters' body temperatures, which in turn are dependent upon how quickly is rubbed against them. If the solo player successfully freezes the team players, the solo player wins. If one or more of the team of three survive the blizzard, the team wins.
If the soloist wins, they are teleported onto the snowman's hat and celebrate their victory afterwards. If the team of three wins, the team players celebrate instead, having trapped the soloist in a pile of snow.
