==Introduction==
==Overview==
In a snowy forest, a snowball rolls down the hill and comes to stop at an icy pond with the four players on it. Along with two others, the snowball's head appears, creating a [[Mr. Blizzard]]. The players get shocked, and the game begins.

==Gameplay==
Players move around the icy pond, dodging the snowballs that Mr. Blizzards throw at them. Mr. Blizzard faces a direction before throwing a snowball. Players hit by snowballs are each trapped into a block of ice, disqualifying them. More Mr. Blizzards appear over time. The big Mr. Blizzard throws a larger snowball than the smaller Mr. Blizzards. Any players who avoid the snowballs until time runs out, or the last player remaining, wins. If every character is frozen, it is a tie.
In the mini-game, the players must run around avoiding the snowballs that the Mr. Blizzards throw.


If a snowball touches a player, they will be frozen and are out of the game. It isn't easy to run at times, as the pond is slippery. The Mr. Blizzards face the direction they throw in before releasing their snowballs, so players should take that time to get out of their line of fire. However, there's no telling the range of any given throw. Every so often, the giant Mr. Blizzard throws a huge snowball. Also, over time, more and more Mr. Blizzards form, meaning more snowballs are thrown. The last character standing is the winner.
The minigame ends with winning players doing their victory poses.


==Ending==
[[Snow Go]] of ''[[Mario Party 9]]'' is another minigame where Mr. Blizzards throw snowballs at players.
The remaining players do a victory pose on the ice.
