Description[]

From the Ice Breaker iOS website's Character page:

Throughout the game you will come across the Shopkeeper. He is a businessman…you can think of him as a cross between a used car salesman and a self-help guru….erm nice…yeah he is the sort of businessman you might not always want cold calling you at 7:30 when you’re eating your dinner!

He has his uses though he is able to sell you some pretty nifty ‘god powers’ that will help you in the game…can you resist his ‘amazing’ offers and his compelling sales banter?
