The player starts controlling Eddy but at every save point in the level they can switch to any other character as often as they like. Eddy and his friends each have different properties in terms of speed, health points. and how high they can jump. Enemies are defeated by jumping on them, but a power-up enables a character to throw snow balls for a short time. [source:mobygames]
