However, unlike those turn-based RPGs,Snow Dayshifted gameplay into a four-person, squad-based action-adventure format with parties made up of a combination of humans and bots.
While the game launched with just three melee weapons to choose from, previous DLC packs have added sickles and a hammer to mix up play style. With the Good Times with Weapons pack, named after the celebrated, anime-inspired episode of the animated series, players can augment their magic wand ranged weapon to toss ninja stars at their enemies. Adding to the stealth-basedweapon feature inSouth Park: Snow Day, additional upgrade cards will appear as players progress through levels, giving them options like increasing their speed, dealing more damage with each consecutive hit, or turning invisible to enemies for a short time. The pack also comes with five new cosmetic options, including a ninja star to the eye, and one emote.
