Snow Bros Nick & Tom is the Japanese edition of Toaplan/Tengen Japan's port.

Better with friends

A single-screen platformer where two players freeze enemies into snowballs before rolling them down the screen for a cascading cleanup. Mutual aid is a joy: coordinating to chain eliminations multiplies points and shared laughs. Charming and snappy, it rewards teamwork without ever punishing clumsiness, and the urge to clear the next stage always brings you back two-player.

Is Snow Bros. - Nick & Tom still worth playing in 2026?

A platformer by Toaplan adapted from arcade, Snow Bros Nick & Tom offers a cute adventure where the two eponymous snowmen throw snow at enemies to turn them into balls that roll down levels. The adorable kawaii art direction, two player cooperative mode and immediate handling make it an excellent party game. For anyone fond of charming Japanese platformers or seeking a family cooperative game on Mega Drive, a warm recommendation still valid today truly here indeed for any newcomer now.
