The original Snowcraft game circulated as a holiday card in 1997 and went viral before social media existed. Quickly growing to over a 8 million active users worldwide. Sustaining heavy demand 10 years later, It was ported to iOS in 2006. A simple Apple Watch version is currently being explored.

Pica seems exceptionally pleased with herself.
Somehow she managed to get onto a 2 foot tall cabinet.
