"Watch out for snow golems! They multiply when on death!"

―Commander dialogue on Wave 9 (Cold Ambush)

Description

The Snow Golem was a large and tanky enemy that appeared on Wave 8 of Cold Ambush as part of the Violent Night Event. Currently, it can be spawned in Sandbox mode. It had a high amount of health and slow speed. Upon death, it spawns three Snowmen, which can easily overwhelm unprepared players. In Sandbox mode, it summons Operation I.C.E Event Snowmen normally.

Appearance

The Snow Golem is a large hulking figure built from snow. Its rig has a waist and lower arms and legs. It has an orange carrot for a nose, black pebble eyes and a stick which resembles a unibrow. There are multiple sticks lodged into the backside of its torso. On the front of its torso there are two large black pebbles, which resemble buttons. There is another pebble button on the front of its waist.

Event Strategy

As this enemy only appears through Sandbox mode, no strategy section is made for its current version. Instead, a strategy section for the one that appeared without Sandbox mode in Cold Ambush is listed instead.

• High DPS towers like the Golden Minigunner, Ranger, Accelerator or Engineer are recommended against this.
  • Multiple weaker towers like the Golden Scout, Cowboy, Militant or Golden Cowboy can also work.
  • Additionally, support towers such as Commander and DJ Booth can be used to boost these towers, further increasing their effectiveness.
• Towers that can damage multiple enemies at once, such as the Executioner and Mortar can be quite useful against this, as it spawns multiple enemies when killed.
• Due to how many Snowmen are spawned upon the Snow Golem's death, it is recommended to defeat this enemy as far away from the tree as possible.
