Overview

Snow is crystallized frozen water of varying consistency. It can be crunchy, slushy, packed or loose and the player is frequently made to wade through it, or walk on top, depending on how solid it is. While snow as a visual effect or part of a setting is very common, rarely does it obstruct characters' movement at all.

Some games actually incorporate snow into gameplay by having the player roll snowballs and even create snowmen.
