"Do you want to build a sonwman? It doesn't have to be a snowman."
Someone said it alludes? implies that the character actually meant "Do you want to hang out with me? I'd like to hang out with you"
Is this meaning that obvious in English? Is there any rhetoric involved?
I had took it literally and hadn't thought into it.

No I think this quite literally just means “do you want to build a snowman”. It could also mean “do you want to play”. I’m assuming you’re referring to the movie Frozen.

@Kayla_oaycp6L Thank you! And yes from the movie. I was amazed at the implication when someone mentioned the implication today.

The line "Do you want to build a snowman?" means exactly as above.
However, the combination of "Do you want to build a snowman? It doesn't have to be a snowman." could mean that the person just wants to see that person, or that they really want to play in the snow.
On the other hand, in the context of the entire song, yes, the implied meaning is that they want to spend time with the other person. By this I mean that if you were analysing the song in a literary way (say for an essay), it would be one of the pieces of "evidence" you would use to show that the character wants to spend time with the other one. That's probably what the other person was trying to say.
I hope that all makes sense!

"Do you want to build a snowman? It doesn't have to be a snowman." is from Anna's song in Frozen, it means she is suggesting building a snowman but saying really she just wants to spend time / hang out with her sister.
