Thin Ice

Thin Ice is a game that is in the Dance Lounge, located next to Astro Barrier. In it, 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.

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.

Tricks and Secrets

• According to the December 20, 2007 issue of the Club Penguin Newspaper, there is a secret area on level 19 of the Thin Ice game called the "Fake Walls". The secret area can be accessed by locating the fake wall in the top-right corner of the level and then by navigating to the switch tile in the lower-right. This will then reveal a special area that contains one coin bag for each of the previous levels that you have solved (melted all of the available ice squares). If you complete all the levels, you will get at least 1000 coins at the end of the game.
• If you know how to complete a level, always do it quickly to train your speed so when you know all the levels you will get bonus points. If you are fast enough you will get at least 1000 points in the Bonus Coins.
