Game description

With winter also comes a variety of things to do. For example, you could build an igloo. The secret wish behind is maybe to own once a house. One just like the Eskimos have, even if it would not last that long. First of all, you will need one large snow shovel. Otherwise, the building of the Igloo would be too hard and would take too long to finish. Next, you shovel as much as possible snow to one big heap of snow. The bigger the heap, the bigger your igloo will be later. While you are piling up the snow, make sure you always press it down tightly. Once your mount has the desirable size, tighten it all once again, with the shovel. If the snow is all tightly pressed, you start with the excavation. The entrance to the igloo could be a small tunnel. The stability is of particular importance. In no case, ever, leave children unsupervised when playing in the igloo. That is the time when the igloo is most likely to collapse. As soon as it loses some stability. Nobody should remain in the igloo because the pressure from the outside quickly can be too much and it will all collapse.
