The rules, with live numbers
Bigger ball, bigger bag.
Here is how.
Snowball is a live game on an ice floe. The creator fees of the coin fill one pool. Roll your snowball big, cash it out, and you are paid for its size. No wallet connect, no deposit: you play as a guest or with an account, and what you win is sent to the address you paste.

The game
01- One floe for everybodyA sheet of ice in a dark sea, covered in snow, with up to 28 players on it. You land next to the others. You push a snowball ahead of you, and it is ice: you slide, and a big snowball is heavy to turn.
- RollRolling over snow takes it: your snowball grows and leaves a track of bare ice. Its size is a number: one point is one patch of full snow. Snow falls back by itself, slowly, and faster near the water. The best snow is where it is most dangerous.
- RamTwo snowballs that meet trade momentum, weight times speed: the lighter one is thrown further. A hard hit knocks snow off the snowball that comes off worse. It lands as piles that anyone can roll up. A dash is a short burst that takes a few seconds to come back.
- The waterOver the edge, or into one of the holes, and you are out with nothing. About 70% of that snowball breaks off on the edge and stays there as piles; the rest is gone. Only a snowball you cash out pays.
The money
02- The fees, split in twoThe creator fees of the coin are claimed every few seconds and split down the middle: 50% goes into the prize pool of the game, 50% buys SNOWBALL back and burns it. The pool is all there is to win, and all of it is for the players. Until the coin is live the pot reads 0.
- The potCash-outs are paid from the pot. –% of every fee claim goes into the pot the moment it lands; the rest waits in the reserve and flows into the pot at –% of itself per hour. The pot never holds more than –% of the pool. So a rush of cash-outs can empty the pot but never the pool: each one is smaller until the pot has filled up again. That is how one pool works for ten players or two hundred.
- What a snowball is worthA cash-out takes a share of the pot that depends on the size of your snowball at that moment. A snowball of – or more takes –% of the pot. A smaller one takes less, and it falls faster than the size: one big snowball pays more than several small ones.
- The maxNobody takes more than –% of the pot with one cash-out, however big the snowball. That is ◎– right now.
- Cashing outHold, and keep still for 10 seconds: you stop and pack your snowball, and you cannot move or dash. Any hit breaks it and sends you sliding, and you have to start again. When the hold ends you are paid for the snowball as it is then, 0.002 SOL or more, sent to your Solana address. Then your run is over: you and the snowball leave the floe, and you start again with a new one.
- Guest or accountYou can play as a guest: a name and an address, nothing else. An account (a name and a password) keeps your name, your address and your record on any device.
- House playersWhen the floe is quiet, house players keep it busy. They play by the same rules, roll and ram like anybody, and never cash out. Knock them in and their snow is on the edge for you.
- The burn, every secondThe burn half of every fee claim is set aside, and the dev wallet spends it all the time: every second one transaction buys SNOWBALL on the market with 1% of what is waiting (at least 0.001 SOL) and, in the same transaction, burns exactly the coins it bought. So far 0 SNOWBALL have been burned in 0 buys, bought with ◎0; ◎0 is waiting to be burned. The newest burns are listed below with their transactions.
