About it

A snowman is built from big balls of snow rolled across the ground, stacked up and given a face of coal, a carrot nose, stick arms, a scarf and a hat. Snow packs best when it is just at the melting point and a little wet, so the flakes stick together. Fresh snow is mostly air, which is why it is so light and fluffy.

Tap it and it melts: the snowballs shrink, the head first, drips fall, and the hat, nose, coals, arms and scarf drop off one by one, and the meltwater spreads into a puddle around it. Then it builds itself again from the bottom up. The Warmth slider in the Splash tab melts it the same way. With ✋ Hands-on on, lift the head or the middle ball off, set it down anywhere and stack them back up: each ball keeps its own coal, nose, arms, scarf or hat.
