==Gameplay==
==Gameplay==
In this game, players have to create [[snowball]]s and try to knock each other off a frozen summit by using snowballs. The player can build a snowball, yet they are vulnerable to other player's snowballs, as it takes time to make one. Once done, the player is able to move the snowball around, and the more time it spends rolling, the greater the size of the snowball. Any contact sends players flying depending on the size of the snowball. Players can also fire a snowball to reach rivals far away without having to cross the entire battlefield. When two snowballs meet, though, they cancel each other out, no matter if one is fired or being built. In ''Mario Party 3'', if two or more players are still on the summit when the time runs out, the minigame is considered a draw, though in ''Mario Party: The Top 100'' and ''Mario Party Superstars'', any players remaining on the summit when time expires win.

Snowball Summit is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party 3, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Mario Party Superstars.

Gameplay

In this minigame, players have to create snowballs and try to knock each other off a frozen summit by using snowballs. A player can build a snowball, yet they are vulnerable to other players' snowballs, as it takes time to make one. Once done, the player is able to move the snowball around, and the more time it spends rolling, the greater the size of the snowball. Any contact sends players flying depending on the size of the snowball. Players can also fire a snowball to reach rivals far away without having to cross the entire battlefield. When two snowballs meet, though, they cancel each other out, no matter if one is fired or being built. In Mario Party 3, if two or more players are still on the summit when the time runs out, the minigame is considered a draw, though in Mario Party: The Top 100 and Mario Party Superstars, any players remaining on the summit when time expires win.
