A Good Snowman Is Hard To Build is a very good puzzle game not too difficult with an original gameplay, some nice designs and a cozy ambient. It worth it with a discount price, I recommend it!!! ⛄❄️🤍

Super fun. The dream world/alt area was fun and i liked the new challenge. Fun and relaxing puzzle game that doesn't look or feel like a puzzle game because you can roam the gardens and not just having title screens or menu screens to go between levels. Fairly kid friendly. My 5 year old solved several of the snowmen, even if by accident.

This is a solid Sokoban-like game, which explores it's unique core mechanic to the perfect extent, without adding extra mechanics on top for later levels. The final part of the game does however play with another mechanic which feels derived from the original one, which also encourages trying to solve the original levels in different ways. Don't let my 9h of playtime fool you, most players should be able to finish and even 100% the game much quicker than that. But the game doesn't need to be any longer than it is.

It's not very long and not very hard and these are two main reasons why I liked this game so much. It almost felt like "puzzle vacation" :)

"A Good Snowman Is Hard To Build", or AGSIHTB to be short, is a puzzle game made by the Studio Draknek. This is my second Draknek game out of 5 (soon to be 6), with my first one being "A Monster's Expedition", which turned into one of my favorite games of all time. I didn't expect this game to be as good, because I only found the other game due to its critical acclaim, and why would only one game get all of the attention if they weren't equally good? These expectations are correct. While not a masterpiece, it is still a solid game. It doesn't have as many mechanics, or is as lengthy, as "A Monster's Expedition". This is not a negative, of course, since both of these aspects complement each other; not too short, and not too long. The thing that made "A Monster's Expedition" so much better is the "wow factor" that comes with the natural way it teaches you its mechanics. AGSIHTB is very simple by design, and if you want a general feeling of light gameplay while having a pleasant feeling, this is a good choice. An 8/10 by my standards. (NOTE: The main game took me 3 hours to complete, and I took one more hour to complete missing stuff, to show 100% in the last statue in the game)
