=== Snowball Showdown Details ===
 +
*Prior to the start of the game, the Hunter is prompted to pick either a '''Normal Showdown''' or a '''Deluxe Showdown''':
 +
**'''Normal Showdown''' boards are free and give '''Normal Rewards''' as described below
 +
**'''Deluxe Showdown''' boards '''require''' 1 [[Snowball Showdown Dust]] and give '''Dusted Rewards''' as described below
 +
*When the game begins, '''4''' random shapes (from the selection as described below) will be hidden on the board:
 +
**The Hunter's objective is to find all 4 shapes within the board of 66 squares (6 rows of 11 columns)
 +
**These shapes can come in any orientation and not necessarily in the way they appear below the board
 +
**Dusting the board with '''Snowball Showdown Dust''' ''guarantees'' that one of the four random shapes is a [[Special#Magic Winter Hunt Holiday Hat|Magic Winter Hunt Holiday Hat]]
 +
*Each [[Throwable Snowball]] a Hunter has grants the Hunter one chance to throw at one square:
 +
**If the Hunter '''succeeds''' at finding a square that is part of a shape, the square lights up in green and displays '''Hit'''
 +
**If the Hunter '''fails''' at finding a square that is part of a shape, the square lights up in red and displays '''Miss'''
 +
**The top of the pop-up window gives various hints as the game progresses:
 +
*:''Throw snowballs to reveal hidden shapes and earn prizes!''
 +
*:''I've hit something!''
 +
*:''Grrr.''
 +
*:''Argh! A miss.''
 +
*:''That's a miss.''
 +
*:''Nothin'!''
 +
*:''Not a thing!''
 +
*:''Where are those shapes?!''
 +
*Finding all 4 shapes and hence finishing the game rewards 5 {{SB}} for the '''Normal Showdown''' or 50 {{SB}} for the '''Deluxe Showdown''', with the Hunter brought back to the prompt screen to pick either a normal or dusted board for the next game

The Snowball Showdown mini-game is similar to the Battleship game, and is accessed as a pop-up window from the Heads-up Display by clicking on the snowball icon on the left.

Snowball Showdown Details

  • Prior to the start of the game, the Hunter is prompted to pick either a Normal Showdown or a Deluxe Showdown:
    • Normal Showdown boards are free and give Normal Rewards as described below
    • Deluxe Showdown boards require 1 Snowball Showdown Dust and give Dusted Rewards as described below
  • When the game begins, 4 random shapes (from the selection as described below) will be hidden on the board:
    • The Hunter's objective is to find all 4 shapes within the board of 66 squares (6 rows of 11 columns)
    • These shapes can come in any orientation and not necessarily in the way they appear below the board
    • Dusting the board with Snowball Showdown Dust guarantees that one of the four random shapes is a Magic Winter Hunt Holiday Hat
  • Each Throwable Snowball a Hunter has grants the Hunter one chance to throw at one square:
    • If the Hunter succeeds at finding a square that is part of a shape, the square lights up in green and displays Hit
    • If the Hunter fails at finding a square that is part of a shape, the square lights up in red and displays Miss
    • The top of the pop-up window gives various hints as the game progresses:
    Throw snowballs to reveal hidden shapes and earn prizes!
    I've hit something!
    Grrr.
    Argh! A miss.
    That's a miss.
    Nothin'!
    Not a thing!
    Where are those shapes?!
  • Finding all 4 shapes and hence finishing the game rewards 5 SUPER|brie+ for the Normal Showdown or 50 SUPER|brie+ for the Deluxe Showdown, with the Hunter brought back to the prompt screen to pick either a normal or dusted board for the next game
