Eskimo 1.21 [free]

The object of the game is to help the character build igloos by jumping on floating blocks of ice, while trying to avoid deadly hazards like clams, snow
geese, Alaskan king crabs, grizzly-looking polar bears, and the rapidly dropping temperature.
The game depicts a polar scenery. Bottom two thirds of the screen are covered by a mass of water with four rows of ice blocks floating horizontally. The player moves by
jumping from one row to another while trying to avoid various kinds of foes including crabs and birds. There are also fish which grant extra points. On the top of the screen
is the shore where the player must build the Igloo. On later levels there is also a polar bear walking around on the shore which must be avoided. The game levels alternate
between large ice blocks and little ice pieces. The levels with the little pieces are actually easier, since one can walk left or right over them without falling in the
water. Each time the player jumps on a piece of ice in a row its color changes from white to blue and the player gets an ice block in the Igloo on the shore. The player has
the ability to change the direction in which the ice is flowing by pressing the fire button, but that costs a piece of the Igloo. After the player has jumped on all the
pieces on the screen, they all turn back to white and one can jump on them again. When all the 15 ice blocks required for building the Igloo are gathered, the player has to
get back to the shore and get inside it, thus proceeding to the next level. On every level the enemies and the ice blocks move slightly faster than in the previous level
making the game more difficult. Each level must be completed in 45 seconds, else the eskimo dies frozen. The faster the level is completed the more bonus points are awarded
to the player.
