How it feels
You wander a frozen, minimalist world, methodically melting snow with a heat gun to uncover ancient secrets and slowly thaw artifacts back at your hub.

What players say
Players are split on Meltopia: some enjoy the relaxing loop of melting snow and ice, but many find it repetitive and buggy. The game is short, around 6 hours, with a progression that stalls as you grind money to upgrade the slow tesla gun, only to end with a regular shovel. Reviews report common bugs like tools not working after dying, and the lack of cloud save is a frequent complaint.
