"Ice Breaker" (by Nitrome) - The Ultimate Guide

ou have the longboat (where you're supposed to get the vikings to), the ice (cut this to get your vikings to the longboat!), the map (helps you navigate around the puzzle) and the vikings themselves (who die upon contact with either runes or the rats -- but you can kill rats if you direct them to the longboat, as the viking captain can just kill him with his hammer)!

his requires a tricky timing cut. First, slice the top section to let it slide down, which will rotate the block and get the top two vikings to safety. BUT while that's happening, you'll need to quickly make the second slice to create a slope so the third viking can roll onto the longboat!

All cuts are approximations. (You'll need to make the second one on the fly anyway.)

o get him out, you'll need to rotate the rock around -- slice on the left rock to rotate clockwise, slice on the right rock to rotate counter-clockwise. Make sure to angle your cuts so the rocks will fall over in the right directions, and if any ice lands in the longboat, quickly cut it up so the viking will be able to fall in too!

ou might have tried and failed this one already, but time the first cut (slicing the rope) so that the open viking can safely fall to the longboat. Once the icy viking has some momentum (not too long after) cut him free and he should fall onto the boat as well.

All cuts are approximations.

lice the right platform so that viking falls into his "hook" first -- then free the hooks so they see-saw, and drop the second viking in.

From here, just cut away the hooks and hope they miss the runes!

All cuts are approximations.

lice away just a bit of the top first so our lady gets rolling, knocking the first frozen viking into the boat. Slice the top frozen viking free (you'll need to make multiple cuts since he's pinned in), and then slice the bottom one free. If he's not able to make it to the boat yet, use the remaining ice for additional leverage!
