Is there anything that should be changed about this? The cost? the draw?

When you buy this, put a card from your hand on your Snowfort mat.
*The Snowfort mat is the same as the Island mat except it's cold.

Have a snowball fight right near the end of the game.

Maybe have a two card pile- Snowfort and Snowball.

Snow fort could be
+ 1 Card
+ 1 Action
Put this on the snowfort mat
--------
When the player to your left passes you a snowball you may take this of the snowfort mat, to return the snowball to the supply


It would most likely be on top of the pile

I've seen a lot of suggestions for hot-potato cards like this that are Curses that get passed around. They're never worth buying because for all you know it will end up in your deck at the end.

What I'd like to see is a Snowball card that synergizes with Catapult.

It's not a good idea to have "Curse" as a type. There is only 1 card with the type Curse, and it's named "Curse" also. If there were another card with that type, it would cause all sorts of rules confusion about what it means whenever a card mentions "Curse", such as Witch (http://wiki.dominionstrategy.com/index.php/Witch).

That’s why my mad scientist and firn village are known as defeat cards. There still purple like curse, but known as Defeat. Which is the opposite of victory anyway.

You may play a Catapult from your hand, trashing this.
-
When you trash this, each other player gains a Ruins.

In the rules:
In games using the Catapult/Rocks pile, flip a coin. If you got heads, replace the Rocks in the Catapult/Rocks pile with 5 Snowballs (putting them under the 5 Catapults).
