Once frozen they can be used as a platform to reach greater heights, pushed around to smother enemies, or kicked at which point the snowball will rebound around the screen. You must completely cover them in frost at which they become a snowball. Your snowballs don’t immediately imprison enemies. While their basic premise is the same there are differences.
#Nes snow bros 2 released series
Replace bubble spitting lizards with snowmen and a new series is born. There is no getting around it Snow Bros was obviously “inspire” by Bubble Bobble. His plan backfires however as the princes use their newfound frost abilities to put an end to his reign. Without the princes the princesses Teri and Tina are easily captured. The Evil King Scorch has his sights set on the kingdom of Whiteland and turns its two princes into Snowmen. Can you blame me for being cautious? Snow Bros is an excellent arcade port and platformer that deserves a higher profile. In my defense I was coming off the double whammy of Marvel’s X-Men and 8 Eyes. Had I known it was Bubble Bobble in a different setting I would have jumped on it immediately.

Mind you I didn’t even bother looking at the back of the box. When I saw Snow Bros in the store I thought it looked like the dumbest game in the world.
