Help with particles

Hello. I’m trying to re-create a snowball impact effect using particles but I noticed that there was not really any physics properties/methods to use and therefore the impact would look fake as the snow particles would only travel in one direction. Are there any alternatives to using particle emitters?

Depends on how real you want it to look, you could even go as far as calculating the change in momentum from the impact force, use newtons third law, and calculate what forces will be applied to said snowball when it hits the object, or you could just shoot little parts out randomly when the snowball hits something
