Snow biome



A Snow biome is an area dominated by Snow Blocks and Ice Blocks, and displays a constant snowfall effect. Trees within Snow biomes have a snowy cover on them, and yield Boreal Wood, instead of ordinary Wood. During rain, a Snow biome displays a blizzard instead, where snowfall increases and unique enemies spawn. Some NPCs will sell different items when situated in a snow biome, including the Merchant, Painter, and Clothier.

At Cavern depths, each Snow biome becomes an Underground Snow Biome.
