Use keyboard arrows to make a path through each maze. You can move left, right, up, and down. Once an ice block has "melted" you cann go back. Certain tiles will help you complete each stage. Look for moveable tiles, they are a darker color; warp tiles, they are green; and twice-over tiles, they are white. Some levels require a key to unlock the maze.

Earn extra coins by melting each ice tile on more advanced levels.

Each block of ice has a different purpose/use. This is a list of all the different symbols and their effects:

ThinIce-DestinationIceCube.jpgDestination Ice - Where you push the Moveable Ice to.
ThinIce-WarpIceCube.jpgWarp Ice - Use one to teleport to the other and vice-versa.

Discussion community comments archived from Talk:Thin Ice

Money Bag – Gets you more Coins, it is not an Object that Takes Coins

        Thick Ice – Go Over it and makes it Thin Ice, Plus makes No Road Block
        Green Squares — Go over 1, you Teleport to the Second 1
         Blue Block – Watch Out! This may Help you, or it may Block your Route
         Red Square – Check Point! You have Passed this Level!
         Key – You may, or you may Not need this Object (Only for Locked Gates)
          Locked Gate – If it is Blocking your Route, turn Back and Grab the Key!
          White Ice — Go Over it and you have Yourself a Wet Puddle!
