How it feels
A calm, thoughtful puzzle game where you carefully plan each move to reunite a polar bear family across melting ice, wrapped in a warm, hand-drawn art style.

What players say
Players enjoy the cute hand-drawn art and relaxing atmosphere, though the single music track gets repetitive. The 150 sliding puzzles introduce fun mechanics but lack a clear difficulty curve, with some levels feeling easy and others a sudden brainteaser. Many note achievements were broken on release (patched in 2023) and early macOS versions had a softlock bug.
