Alaware Releases Arctic Quest
A chilly adventure awaits puzzle gamers
Dale City, Va. – November 10, 2005 – The Snow King has unleashed a bitter
frost on the tropical islands across Earth! With a wave of his icy fingers, palm
trees iced over, fish were frozen solid in the seas and birds could no longer
take flight. To safeguard his expanding kingdom, the Snow King built a chain of
60 puzzles meant to stop even the wisest person from reaching his castle and
breaking the spell.
In Arctic Quest from Alawar Entertainment, you set out to solve the puzzles,
each of which takes the shape of an animal or other tropical wonder. As various
pieces of ice fall from the sky, you grab them with your mouse, rotate them and
place them on a grid within the puzzle, filling in the shape and returning
warmth to the island bit by bit. If the waters that surround your once balmy
home fill up with unused ice, your quest will fail. Luckily, a small fire burns
on your land, allowing you to melt surplus ice. You can also earn bonuses that
grant you various powers, such as the ability to smash excess ice or paint in
portions of the grid.
Do you have the strong mind and passionate heart needed to defeat the Snow
King? Will you accept the quest?
What you get:
- 60 enjoyable levels
- Six valuable bonuses
- Simple mouse-based controls
- Online high score board
- Beautiful hand-drawn graphics
- A final duel with the Snow King!
- Free technical support and upgrades
