How to Play Fire 'n Ice
Quick start
Press START at the title, choose a new adventure, then select a world with A. Use Left/Right to choose a round on the smaller map and press A again; B cancels world selection. In the opening puzzles, practise creating ice with A or B and pushing a loose block into a flame. Check that you can still climb back out before removing a supporting block. If stuck, press START and choose TRY AGAIN to restart the round, or NEW GAME to return to the map. When stopping, choose quit and record the MagicWord.
Controls
Left/Right: move, push loose ice and climb a single-block step. Up/Down: enter suitably oriented pipes, not jump. A or B during a puzzle: create/remove ice diagonally below and ahead of Dana. A confirms world/round selection; B cancels a world choice. START begins the game or opens the puzzle's menu. TRY AGAIN restarts the round; NEW GAME returns to the map. Do not apply the Japanese SELECT rewind feature to this version.
Fire 'n Ice — About this game
A novice Dana is chosen to save Coolmint Island from the flames unleashed by Druidle. The solution to each room is not a race to a key: you must put out the flames and defeat the enemies present by arranging ice. Either action button creates a block diagonally below Dana in the direction he faces, or removes ice already there. Loose blocks slide when pushed and fall when they reach an edge, consuming themselves when they extinguish a flame. Newly created ice can attach to an object beside it, allowing you to build temporary bridges or stairs. Dana cannot jump and can climb only a one-block step, so the route you leave for yourself is part of every solution. Pipes complicate later rooms by moving him between openings, and bosses become available after their world's ordinary rounds are cleared. In this release, choose quit and write down the MagicWord to resume progress later.
