How to Play

Use your mouse to aim at ice. When you have your shot lined up, click the left mouse button to release a pinecone. If the pinecone hits an item in the game-play area, it will bounce all over, cracking any ice it touches. To continue to the next level, you must crack all of the pink ice in the current level.

Image:Pinecone Pop Instructions 2.png|You need to crack all the pink ice to clear a level! Image:Pinecone Pop Instructions 3.png|If your pinecone lands in the basket at the bottom, you get an extra pinecone to toss again!
