Walkthrough
- 1Upon entering the level, the Ice Fairy will grant you the ability to breathe ice. Use this new power by pressing O.
- 2Head down and speak to Alex, who needs help operating a laser tower to melt ice blocks.
- 3Enter the laser tower. Use the left analog stick to aim the laser at the ice wall to melt it, creating a path.
- 4Melt the enemies in the area by targeting them with the laser. The enemies include a duck-like creature, a rock-wielding rhynoc (rwrd), and a mini-mammoth.
- 5Exit the tower by pressing T.
- 6Collect gems located near where you started and around the tower, especially near the rwrd's previous location.
- 7Proceed through the melted ice wall and follow the path, collecting gems.
- 8Encounter a mammoth; charge it, then freeze and charge a larger enemy.
- 9Jump up a step and glide to a ledge in a large area containing another duck, a rwrd, and Frosty the Snowman.
- 10Enter the tower on the left and melt Frosty the Snowman with the laser.
- 11Collect scattered gems. Charge the rwrd, then freeze him in his mooning position and defeat him.
- 12Collect gems behind the rwrd. Freeze the duck-like creature and glide to a seemingly unreachable ledge.
- 13Collect gems from chests in the corners of the area.
- 14Jump up stairs to a temple room. Inside, find a Headbash Chest. Collect gems around it, including those that erupt from the floor.
- 15Go right of the temple and down a path with gliding spots. Glide across to an island to find Egg 083.
- 16Glide back to where Frosty was and enter the cave ahead.
- 17In the cave, flame a skidding mammoth and then freeze Eustace. Stand on him to reach a platform with gold and purple gems.
- 18Proceed to a room with a rwrd and defeat it.
- 19Collect gems around the walls and go through a door. You will be zapped by Zoe.
- 20Defeat the rwrd guarding another laser tower. You can optionally be shaken by Frosty II to be thrown back.
- 21Enter the laser tower. Melt a mammoth in a dip-down path and then melt Frosty II.
- 22Collect gems around the area. Go to the dip-down path to find a Bentley portal.
- 23Enter the Bentley portal to find Evening Lake Challenge Portals, where you can obtain Egg 84, Egg 85, and Skill Point 11.
- 24After completing the Bentley challenges, proceed through a gap between two walls, where you will be bombarded by rwrds.
- 25If overwhelmed, defeat one rwrd, then enter the tower to defeat the rest.
- 26Melt an ice wall to the left and defeat the mammoths in the pit. Use the laser to destroy chests and vases to the left.
- 27Collect gems left by enemies. Hit the fodder.
- 28Go up a high slope and around a curved area to find another gliding point.
- 29Glide to a small doorway at the top.
