An early licensed product, the game is 'based on the book by Raymond Briggs'. Like many later licensed games the link is a loose one as here we have a platforms and ladders arcade game where you drop snow and apparel through a platform to build and dress a snowman and so progress to a tougher level. The first level is nice as the baddies are gas flames who don't cost you a life but hinder your progress by melting snow. Later levels have more obvious meanies.
The game is addictive and well-paced but marred by fussy level and ladder allignment making it harder than it should be to move in the intended direction.
