Snowball is a game in which each player must fight, collect and throw snowballs at their opponents.
Aim of the Game
The main aim of game is to get the highest score by hitting the most snowballs against other players. The person with the most points at the end of the game wins.
How the game works
To join a game of Snowball simply type
/snowball join. You will then be put into either a random existing lobby area with other players, or you will be put into a new game lobby and have to wait for more players to join you!
If all of our arenas are currently full then you'll just have to try again in a few minutes.
-
The game will begin when there are at least 2 players in your arena lobby. The lobby will countdown for it to start, and once the timer reaches 0 you will be teleport into the arena!
-
The first 5-10 seconds of the game are for you to get prepared, during this time no snowball hits will be counted, so use this time wisely to get stocked up on snowballs! During this time you will be given a shovel to collect snowballs and a few to get yourself started.
-
Once the game informs you that you can start throwing snowballs the aim is to try and hit as many people as many times as you can without being hit yourself. Throw the snowballs at the other players (each hit you successfully make will add 1 to your score) and collect more as required, whilst avoiding being hit yourself.
-
Once you have been hit 25 times (or you are the last one in the arena) you will be teleported out into a final waiting area, from here you will have to wait for the whole game to finish! Don't leave early or you'll miss out on finding out the winner and getting your prizes.
-
Once the game is completely over (normally when only 1 person is left in the arena or when no one has been hit for at least 2 minutes) you will be be informed of the top 3 scoring players and will then be teleported back to where you were before with all of your items returned! (Plus any prizes you might have won)
Please make note: The aim of the game is to hit people as many times as possible with snowballs! It is NOT to be the last one standing.
