The small Indian Project "A Good Snowman Is Hard To Build" Proves that a Good Computer game does not need a Million-dollar Budget for sound, music and Graphics. The small English Development Team created a great Puzzle game with this Game With a lot of Passion, by having to create the Player in the Role of a Monster to build Snowmen. What looks simple at the Beginning increases steadily in difficulty with the later Levels and demands the Player's Scirnic Lard. For Puzzle lovers absolutely recommended! http://youtu.be/kB9rGpO6AiQ

A good Snowman is hard to build. That's right. I only downloaded This 2-Hour game for €12 for one Reason: I also want to build Snowmen. But typical Germany. No Snow. For that, though, in this Game. Very light Levels to Levels that make you despair. A good Mix. I would have liked a little Story but only 4 People worked on this Game. A little Tuning in to Christmas. And since this Game has a need for repetition, I'll play it again in a few Months. Reals great.

Ingenious Puzzle Game I played through the Game in 1 h 45 min and thought: Cool Optics, relatively light and way too short! Boy, was I wrong! The Game really starts! In the Dream World then much more demanding and you have to think about several Corners and form more Snowmen, which depend very much on the Postion of the other Snowmen! The Game then gets really good. So definitely play Dream World!! If you don't know how: If you've gone through the game again at the Gate and go out at the other Gate where the first Level starts! You can travel to the Dream World by means of the Benches. Sitting Down and looking Towards the Back Rest!! 100% Buy recommendation!!

• What is going On? A Good Snow Man is a short Puzzle Game that wants to tune us into Wintertime. In different Levels we have to manage to put the Snowmen & Women together properly. [+] You can get behind the Technique quickly and find your Joy in getting every Snowman ready-Beautiful are the Telescopes with which you can find all areas or marvel at your previous Successes again-some tricky Puzzles are definitely there. For some, you have to have two others unlocked and have to walk around outside again, or lead the Snowballs just outside the room to put them in the right position [-] Done how to catch these Butterflies = (• Conclusion: A Game I would definitely recommend to puzzle fans, the Style of the Game has its own Charm, the Technique is not difficult to comprehend, only the Levels are so short. Or too little. For my Part, I would like to see more of the same.
