Ice (Ice Breaker)

Ice is a common object encountered in every level of the Ice Breaker Series. In every level of Ice Breaker, there is usually much ice around, or at least some Ice. Vikings are frozen in Ice, and have to be aided to the Longboat by the Player, who with there Sword has to cut ice. There are a few variations of Ice which act differently, and can be used in different ways.

The Ice Breaker of a Longboat carries a Hammer which can smash any types of Ice, but is unable to destroy large pieces of Ice, this signified by him hitting the Ice and only hearing a sound of him hitting it.

Normal Ice
Normal Ice is the most common type of Ice encountered in the Ice Breaker Series. Normal Ice appears white coloured, transparent, with sometimes swirls visible. It does not have a special ability, which all types of Ice later on in the series would have. Of all the types of Ice in the Ice Breaker series, Vikings appear trapped in this type the most.

Objects may sometimes be embedded in the Ice, the only way being able to get rid of it is cutting the ice piece it is attached to. Normal Ice appears in all levels of Ice Breaker 1, appearing not as many times in Ice Breaker: The Red Clan, as new types of Ice were introduced.

Rocket Ice
Rocket Ice is a type of Ice introduced in Ice Breaker: The Red Clan, and also appearing in Ice Breaker: The Red Clan. Rocket Ice has a similar appearance to Normal Ice, only having different designs and being a combination of blue and purple. Rocket Ice's special ability is, that when a piece is cut off, yellow bubbles are shot out of the cut off part of Ice, causing it to rocket in a direction st high speeds. It is usually used in levels to move trapped Vikings to another area of the level, or the Longboat. Rocket Ice usually appears in levels in small amounts.

Floating Ice
Floating Ice is another type of Ice introduced in Ice Breaker: The Red Clan. Floating Ice has a similar appearance to Rocket Ice, only being lighter in colour. Floating Ice possesses the ability to float, making it impossible for it to sink. The ice appears to have air bubbles trapped inside it, which may be the cause of its ability to float. It appears early in Ice Breaker: The Red Clan, and appears usually in large amounts.
