Roadmap
First off, yes, you need to own the base game in order to play this Winter DLC. I will assume you followed the excellent trophy guide that exists for the base game and Wicked Witches DLC. If you haven't, this is a good time to do that. This roadmap will just get right down to the Winter DLC.

There are a whopping four trophies in this DLC. I suggest just trying to complete all the levels, going for the "Let it snow" trophy. Then starting a new game on the other levels that have specific trophies when you are done. If you luck out and randomly unlock the level-specific trophies along the way, even better of course.

There you have it, the most comprehensive roadmap ever ~ now even including a third paragraph!

Trophy Guide

[Winter] Let it snow!

Complete the "Winter" episode
As with all episodes so far, there are 24 levels you need to complete. After completing the final level, this unlocks. You can do this in multiple sessions, just select the highest level you unlocked.

[Winter] Penguins in Danger!

Help the valiant penguins fight the nasty bears!
On level 4-15, kill the terrifying bears before destroying any penguins. Use power-ups like torpedoes, canons and guns to your advantage by aiming for those vicous polar bears ~ and don't look into their eyes, trust me. This is the easiest of this DLC. If a penguin dies, hit

"Restart level" to try again.

[Winter] Call for Help!

Call for help by launching the fireworks! Don't let the witch notice you! Avoid hitting this elderly lady.
On level 4-17, you will notice a witch who decided to be wicked and sneak into the wrong DLC. Break all the fireworks boxes to launch them before you hit the *itch. There are fireworks boxes above her as well, and you need to bust those before hitting her. This trophy will unlock as soon as you set off the fireworks, so don't hit on her until after the trophy unlocks. If you knock her up first, hit

"Restart level" to try again.

[Winter] I fly only first class

And finally, send that old man in a red cap off on a big air trip
On level 4-24, Santa is standing on top of a ton of boxes and his hat is touching the top of the screen. You need to knock him off the top box with the wind power-up.

If Santa falls off with anything but wind, this will not unlock.
If the stack of boxes Santa is on gets hit and goes down a box, this will not unlock.
Avoid the earthquake/hammer power-up at all costs, as this will instantly destroy your chance at this trophy.
Also avoid iron ball power-up, or be carefull to aim away from Santas boxes...
If Santa's hat is not touching the top of the screen, you need to hit "Restart level" to try again.
If you see a little wind/tornado powerup, grab it and wait for the trophy to unlock!
The power-ups are random, so you may luck out and get the wind power-up, otherwise just keep re-starting.

Thanks for putting this together, TigerLust. I may pick up this DLC now once I finish the main part.

By the way, how is the difficulty of Winter DLC compared to the Pirates and Knights levels?

The stages on this Winter DLC are much more challenging than the previous ones, especially the last few stages. Of course, you are familiar with controls and all the power-ups at this stage, but you need some skill. Fun & challenging with some frustration of course. The night powerup will throw you for a loop on this one. If the Base game is a 3 difficulty, this would be a 5 or so. With that said, from the point I unlocked the first trophy "Penguins in Danger!" on 4-15 it took 1hr+20min to complete the remaining three trophies and get 100%.

Your right about the last few stages. There were a real B***h. It took me an hour & half to to fully complete the winter pack with the trophies. Overall, great guide

TigerLust. The hints about "Call for help" & "I fly only first class" trophies help me a lot. Thanks again
