Snowball
Description
A Projectile Item.
The Snowball is an Item Box power-up that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series . It is a Projectile Item used primarily to attack rivals.
Description [ ]
The Snowball takes the form of a sparkling ball of snow that is launched by the user, both as an icon and on the tracks.
Overview [ ]
In gameplay, the Snowball can only be obtained at random from Item Boxes by Snowdrift Sonic . As with most other Items, Metal Sonic and Metal Sonic Mach 3.0 can also use the Snowball if they use the Steal Item, or Fortune Teller Amy if she uses Lucky Draw or Wall of Cards to steal it from the aforementioned user.
Once obtained, the player can utilize the snowball by pressing its icon on the bottom of the HUD. When used, the user sets loose the Snowball, which will travel down the lane it was deployed on in front of the user until it hits either a rival character or obstacle, or it wears off. Rival characters that make contact with the snowball will take damage, causing them to lose Rings and slow down momentarily. To avoid the snowball, the playable character has to either step out of its lane or jump over it.
The snowball can also be upgraded by leveling the user to level 6 and 12. If the user upgrade to level 6, the Snowball will more likely get two of it in a single Item Box. If the user upgrade to level 12, however, the Snowball will more likely get three of it in a single Item Box.
