Ice and Idols

About this board game

Ice & Idols is a pick-up-and-deliver board game for 2–4 adventurers, with plays lasting approximately 60 minutes. In this thrilling expedition for knowledge, players enter an ancient temple cloaked in ice and dust, where a labyrinth of ever-shifting pathways stands between them and powerful discoveries.

Time is of the essence as you explore the frozen maze and uncover Idols containing hidden secrets. The temple is not a static place: rotate the temple ruins and manipulate pathway tiles to change the routes available to you.

Every move offers a tactical decision. Position yourself carefully to research the Idols, then harness their hidden powers while adapting to a landscape that can shift beneath your plans. A well-timed change to the temple may open a promising path, while another move could create an unforeseen obstacle.
