Snowball Battle location

The Snowball Battle is a festival that challenges the citizens to a snowball fight. The Snowball Battle occurs on Winter on Friday, Day 12, and Saturday, Day 13. Located east of the player's workshop, the event begins at 8:00 and ends at 15:00.

Rules[]

  • The player can interact with the rock barricade closest to the gift exchange to begin the event.
    • Each round costs 2.5 hours. Thus, a total of three rounds can be played before the event ends.
  • The player indirectly challenges the other participants in a spot at the scoreboard.
  • The player is given 25 snowballs and must successfully hit one of the targets that are exposed from the opposite side.
    • Targets do not fight back, but they hide behind rock barricades. These targets occasionally pop out of their barricade for a chance to be hit.
    • The farther the target, the greater the points. (10 pts for the front row, 12 pts for the middle row, and 15 pts for the back row)
      • Smaller targets tend to give more points.
        • McDonald and the Hulu brothers provide a +1 bonus in all three rows (11, 13, and 15 pts).
        • Children provide a +2 bonus in the front (12 pts) and middle (14 pts) rows, +3 in back row (18 pts).
      • Larger targets tend to give fewer points.
        • Remington and Django have a -1 deduction in the front row (9 pts), and -2 deduction in the middle (10 pts) and back rows (13 pts).
        • Paulie has a -2 deduction in the front row (8 pts) and a -3 deduction in the middle (9 pts) and back rows (12 pts).
  • If the player misses, they are given no points.
  • At the end of the round, the total number of points are added to the scoreboard.
    • After three rounds, the scoreboard is tallied, and the top three participants are given rewards, including Snowball Battle Badges: highest points have better rewards. The scores from the first day carry over to the second, so if the player takes a large lead, it is possible to win without playing at all the second day.

Tips[]

  • The target hitboxes are very small and the villagers do not stay exposed for long, so the player will have to aim quickly and precisely to hit their targets before they hide.
  • The safest way to earn points requires patience. As it is difficult to quickly change targets accurately, the player can identify the highest-value target, and aim at the space their head will occupy, shooting when the target comes out of hiding. This is necessarily a slow process, but as there is no time limit, it can be done.
  • Snowballs take longer to travel the further the player aims.
  • When an NPC bobs nervously above the barrier, they do not stay above it very long, whereas when an NPC is stationary, they stay up longer.
  • NPCs will occasionally attempt to fake out the player by popping out of hiding, then very quickly hiding again.
