Ice Palace

## Description

You are on a quest to retrieve your dead Father’s crown to help you destroy
the evil Ice Queen and remove eternal darkness from your land. You must
navigate around her _Ice Palace_ to find the seven pieces of the crown over
seven levels to succeed in your quest using objects to solve puzzles. The game
is an arcade adventure and contains two screens, the Action Screen or the
Adventure Screen.

The Action Screen is viewed from above showing a part of the level on the
screen. Each level is made up of Hexagon shaped rooms with various objects
inside to help or hinder you in your quest. There are six types of rooms and
these are empty, a lake which cannot be crossed, a sword which contains
various items, a fire which replenishes your firestick, ice which is difficult
to cross and a black moline which cannot be entered. Each room has has various
entrances and each room can be rotated to align entrances. As you explore the
Palace there are various waves of creatures which when touched moves a gauge
from good to evil and when it reaches evil it is game over. You can destroy
these creatures with your firestick and once a wave is defeated then a
spinning cylinder appears and when touched increases your gauge to good.

The adventure screen has text and allows you to interact with objects found
and solve puzzles. You can also see how many pieces of the crown are found,
your good/evil gauge, indicator of any nasties in the area and a candle
showing how much time you have left.
