Ice Age is a 2002 platform game based on the film of the same name, published by Ubisoft and developed by A2M for the Game Boy Advance.
Gameplay
The game allows you to play as Sid or Manny (not counting Diego) with Roshan. The goal of each of the 10 levels is to collect as many nuts as you can and make it to the end safely.
Reception
The game received poor reviews from critics, with GameRankings and Metacritic reporting an average score of 46.00% and 47/100 respectively.[1][2] Tim Tracy of GameSpot described the game as a "straightforward platform game with a host of problems that ultimately make it a joyless experience", criticizing the repetitive and uninteresting music and "an overall feeling that trial and error is the key to beating the game".[3] Craig Harris, writing for IGN, also criticized the trial-and-error level design; "the developers make [this game's] levels challenging by creating blind leaps, making it impossible to see what's below a ledge without taking that annoying 'leap of faith'." On the other hand, he was more positive when commenting about the music, describing the game's good use of the GBA's audio hardware as "the game's only real plus."[4]
