Description
*** New version: iPad-compatible and with 10 new levels, for a total of 130 levels. ***
Arctopia is a turn-based puzzle solving game in the style of the classic puzzle games from the 80s.
You can find screenshots and a detailed description of the game on the Arctopia web site at http://arctopia.robotocracy.com/ .
In each level of Arctopia, your goal is to strategically use blocks of ice to extinguish all of the sinister eyebrowed flames that menace the level. Unfortunately, this is rarely straightforward, as fires may be inconveniently placed, blocked by burning oil barrels, or defended by blockades of ice.
You can create and destroy ice, but only below your current position, so thinking ahead is mandatory. . . and there are many traps for the unwary!
Arctopia features 130 levels across 13 chapters of increasing difficulty. The earliest levels will only take a minute to solve, but the later ones will be nearly impossible unless you have figured out every trick in the game.
(Note that if you find early levels too easy (or you find a particular level too frustrating!), you can always skip to a different level and come back later.)
The number of moves taken for your best solution is saved for each level, so you can strive for maximum efficiency if you so desire.
The intro levels are (skippable) tutorial stages, so don't worry about learning the basics of the game.
Good luck!

What's New In Version 1.4
Added ten new levels--130 total now!
Added native high-resolution iPad support.
Added "World Record" high scores for you to try to beat.
Added the ability to permanently record your best level solutions by emailing them to yourself.
*** Crash bug solution: If you have an earlier version of Arctopia, there is a crash bug related to the previous save files. You will have to delete your old version of Arctopia and install a new copy from scratch (thus clearing the high scores). I'm working on a fix to this. Sorry about that! (On the plus side, in 1.4 you can actually email your level solutions to yourself.) ***
