A chilly adventure awaits puzzle gamers

contents

The Snow King has unleashed a bitter frost on the tropical islands across Earth! With a wave of his icy fingers, palm trees iced over, fish were frozen solid in the seas and birds could no longer take flight. To safeguard his expanding kingdom, the Snow King built a chain of 60 puzzles meant to stop even the wisest person from reaching his castle and breaking the spell.
In Arctic Quest from Alawar Entertainment, you set out to solve the puzzles, each of which takes the shape of an animal or other tropical wonder.

As various pieces of ice fall from the sky, you grab them with your mouse, rotate them and place them on a grid within the puzzle, filling in the shape and returning warmth to the island bit by bit. If the waters that surround your once balmy home fill up with unused ice, your quest will fail. Luckily, a small fire burns on your land, allowing you to melt surplus ice. You can also earn bonuses that grant you various powers, such as the ability to smash excess ice or paint in portions of the grid.

Do you have the strong mind and passionate heart needed to defeat the Snow King? Will you accept the quest?

What you get:

60 enjoyable levels
Six valuable bonuses
Simple mouse-based controls
Online high score board
Beautiful hand-drawn graphics
A final duel with the Snow King!
