“Ice climb” is one heck of a hard and addictive game.

Graphics: 7/10 Pretty easy to look at but average
Gameplay: 8/10 Easy to learn, tough to beat
Controls: 9/10 Jumping is tough to learn at first
Bugfreeness: 10/10 No Bugs
Overall: You need to download this game if you like puzzles.

“IceClimb” is a fun game. I first played it in the easter egg in “BubbleBobble”, and after I deleted that, I downloaded the stand alone version.

The gameplay is simplistic. You jump back and forth in a rather boxy, blocky motion. You need to land on just the right bricks, avoiding falling on the deadly spikes from too high up, and avoid falling though what I think is thin ice.

The playing field wraps around as you go, allowing for all sorts of clever (and frustrating) moves. It's almost like a sideways maze - a very strategical puzzle game. It is also very hard.

This has got to be the hardest calculator strategy game in existence. It combines enough graphics to make gameplay comfortable and natural with a great concept and level design matched only by professional games.

Like I said, I highly recommend this game. However, it has little to no replay value except for the last level, which is so ridiculously long that there is no way to remember the solution.

Frankly, I don't know how the author managed to think up so many intriguing tricks in the levels. Most people won't be able to solve the first level in only a day or two. Make no mistake, gentlemen, this game is HARD.
