Thin Ice

Thin Ice is a game that is in the Dance Lounge and is styled around a classic arcade game. In the game, the player must steer a Black Puffle that is on fire (probably by the effects of O-Berries) through a maze covered in ice, melting as many ice squares as they possibly can along the way. There are no lives, and levels can be passed without completing them. However, the player does not receive the full reward if they dont melt all the squares of ice.

The player can collect items such as coin bags along the way, to earn additional coins. If the puffle gets stuck on a single ice square – with no other square to depart from – the square will melt and the puffle will fall into the water, causing the level to restart. The Black Puffle is the main character in this game, but it looks red most of the time because it is usually on fire, except when it is extinguished when it sinks, and when it goes out after level 19. There are 19 levels and the first five are somewhat easy to complete. To complete a level completely you must melt every single ice block in the game. If that happens, a coin bag appears somewhere in the next level. Grabbing the coins yields a satisfactory amount of money.
