The Snow King is a secret mascot in Crossy Road. He is one of two Game of Thrones-inspired characters, the other being the Dragon Rider.
Appearance[]
Snow King is a humanoid character with black hair. He wears a brown cloak with big shoulders, black gloves, and holds a long-sword in his right hand.
Characteristics[]
The Snow King plays in a snowy terrain, similar to the environment for Arctic and other snow-themed mascots. Snow continually falls, and wind can be heard blowing at all times. The normal white birds are replaced by black birds (likely representing the ravens from Game of Thrones). Obstacles include blue zombie-like humanoids in brown clothes (representing the army of the dead from Game of Thrones), which shake and sometimes growl at the Snow King as he approaches, and which turn to face him as he moves. When the Snow King dies, a raven caws in the background.
How to Obtain[]
Snow King is a secret mascot. He can be randomly unlocked by earning 100 tokens.

Trivia[]
- The Snow King is based on the fictional character of Jon Snow, played by actor Christopher “Kit” Harrington in the highly successful television series, Game of Thrones. The television show is based on the A Song of Ice and Fire novels of R.R. Martin. Jon Snow is a prominent point-of-view character in the novels and one of the most popular characters in the series.
- Winter scenes feature heavily in Game of Thrones, and the motto of the House of Stark (under which Jon was raised) is “Winter is coming," explaining why the Snow King plays in snowy terrain.
- The zombie-like obstacles seen when playing as the Snow King represent the wights (reanimated zombie-like creatures) from Game of Thrones. In the television show, they are an army of the dead, controlled by the White Walkers, and cannot be easily injured or stopped.
- Dragons also feature heavily in Game of Thrones. If Snow King retreats or fails to move for too long, he is snatched by a red dragon rather than by the normal eagle. The dragon makes the same sound as the eagle.
