Snow Fort

During the Great Winter Hunt 2013, hunters built a Snow Fort to defend the kingdom against the S.N.O.W. Golem, by using Snow Blocks. The fort is built in stages by clicking on the Build button of the Heads-up Display at the Festive Snow Fort.

The initial fort has the following description:

You'll need a basic fort to stand a chance against the S.N.O.W. Golem Mouse, a chilling automaton of ice and snow! Once you've built your Snow Fort, you can upgrade it with expansions to give bonuses to your trap, your rewards, and your friends!

It is built for a cost of 80 blocks, and the following message appears in the Hunter's Journal:

I used 80 Snow Blocks to build a mighty Snow Fort!

This mighty fortress of ice and snow will certainly attract the attention of the S.N.O.W. Golem Mouse, so I'd better armour up and keep upgrading my fort!!

In order to attract the first S.N.O.W. Golem, a hunter must complete 70 hunts with Snowball Bocconcini and construct the basic fort (either action can be completed first, but both must be completed before encountering the boss). If the fort is not constructed, attempting to hunt with Snowball Bocconcini will instead attract a different mouse and leave this message in the journal:

The S.N.O.W. Golem Mouse has shown his face, but I cannot defeat him without a Snow Fort.

As soon as I have enough Snow Blocks, I must BUILD my Snow Fort if I want to stand a chance against this snowy monster!

After the fort is started, there are four groups of upgrades, each with three levels: Snow Cannon, Ice Armoury, Winter Walls, and Festive Tavern. Upgrades can be done in any order; the Level 1 upgrade costs 75 Ice Blocks per group, while Level 2 and Level 3 each require 50 Ice Blocks. Building the complete Snow Fort requires all 12 upgrades, for a total of 780 Ice Blocks, at which point a limited edition Snow Fort Snowglobe is awarded and the Snowball Journal Theme is unlocked for purchase.
