Snowball Slide is a game which is also a Christmas card. On the front of the card is a picture, while on the back the rules are laid out neatly. Inside each is a small piece of card with eight counters to cut out and use with the game. It’s a two player game which takes around five minutes to play.
The card shows ski slopes, down which snowballs can run. Half the funds go to Camp Stripe and half to Camp Spots, which are both at the bottom of the card. The slopes are interrupted by cogs, which can send snowballs down one of two slopes, depends which way they are tilted — or can be horizontal and stop the snowball! The aim of the game is to get as many snowballs as possible into your camp. One player is aiming for Camp Stripe, the other Camp Spots. Players take turns at rolling two dice, and then use the results to move cogs or release snowballs. The snowball rolls down the slopes until it gets to a horizontal cog — or until it arrives in one of the two camps!
This is published as an A5 greetings card and is played using cut out counters included in the envelope. All you (or the lucky people to whom you send the card) need to find is some scissors and two standard six-side dice. It is also available as a print-and-play.
