Description: Remember the good old days where you’d watch the snow come down and hope for a Snowday? Even if you haven’t, Snowday will immerse you in the fun and excitement of the snowball fight like never before.
Snowday is a competitive VR game built from the ground up for use with motion controllers. A heavy emphasis is placed on tactical snowball fighting strategies. With its fast pace, you’ll have to use cover, stealth, and accurate throwing to your advantage. And, if you’re good enough, you just might earn your place as the neighbourhood’s best snowbrawler.
Review: Snowday is a virtual snowball fight that rapidly turns into an all-out snowbrawl. While it is basic in every way it has what matters the most and that is playability. Sadly it hasn’t been updated for a long time, so I think this is all the game you will ever get and that means no voice-chat. But you should remember that it is a freebie and for a festive freebie this is well worth a look. I’m not a fan of real-world snowball fights as I always end up getting a cold, but this is a great alternative.
