Building a snowman in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Depending on the hemisphere you live in, you can make a snowman at different times of the year. Those living in the Northern Hemisphere can build the Snowman from December 11th to February 24th, while others in the Southern Hemisphere can build it from June 11th to August 24th.
So if it’s cold in your hemisphere, you should be able to build a snowman by following these steps:
- Walk around the village and find two miniature snow globes. These will stay close to each other and your goal will be to try to make them bigger. One of the best ways to do this in Animal Crossing: New Horizons is to kick one of the snow globes 13 times in the present.
- Make sure the ball does not fall into or hit the water when kicking. obstacles when digging. However, if your ball falls apart, you can reset it by entering and exiting your house to make it reappear.
- Once you kick the ball enough times, your character will try to move it around with their hands. Now you just need to enlarge the two balls to the desired size and then connect them to transform them into your very own snowman.
Creating a perfectly shaped snowman in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
A snowman can be made in any shape or size, although some careful players focus on creating the perfect figure.
You can use the Nookophone camera trick to achieve this. When pointing the camera at ground level, make sure that the ball to be used as the snowman’s head is of a size that reaches up to your character’s ears.
You will also need to do the same with the body of the snowman. However, this time the size of the snowball will be slightly above your character’s ears in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
Once you have the right size, you can join the two balls together to create the perfect snowman.
