How to Play Melt All The Ice
Every step below is derived from the developer's official game description and the game's approved art, checked 2026-09-27. Where a detail isn't documented anywhere yet, we say so instead of inventing it.
The loop at a glance
Melt All The Ice!🧊 (by The Frozen Studio) is a melting adventure: the world froze over, and you start with nothing but a hairdryer. The official description gives the complete loop — "Melt the ice and carve your way inside! Buy better tools and upgrade their power! Uncover frozen rooms and discover what caused the freeze! Can you melt every last piece and save the world?"
- Melt the ice blocking your path. Your hairdryer blows a heat cone that melts ice walls, floors and blocks — carving your way inside the frozen world.
- Carve your way inside. Melting opens the way forward — through ice-encased neighborhoods and into frozen buildings, toward the warm house at the heart of the game's art.
- Buy better tools and upgrade their power. Progression is tool-driven: better equipment melts bigger, thicker ice. The official art shows the jump from the pink starter hairdryer to a belt-fed flame tool.
- Uncover frozen rooms. Inside the ice are frozen rooms to open up — the description ties them to the game's central mystery.
- Work toward the goal: melt every last piece and save the world.
Step 1 — start with the hairdryer
You begin holding a 🩷 pink hairdryer — the game's signature starter tool, shown in the official icon and screenshots held first-person. It melts ice directly in front of you. Melt-to-reveal is the core satisfaction: the game's own art shows a patch of ice melting away to reveal the grass underneath. No prices or stats for the hairdryer have been documented anywhere yet — when they surface, the tools & upgrades page is where they'll be tracked.
Step 2 — upgrade your tools early
The description is explicit: "Buy better tools and upgrade their power!" The upgrade system is the game's core progression, and the official art shows what that looks like — graduating from the hand-held hairdryer to a 🛠️ belt-fed flame tool that throws a much bigger heat cone at the same ice walls. What we can confirm today ends there: tool names, prices, power values and the upgrade ladder are not documented anywhere yet. Our tools & upgrades system page keeps the tracked open-questions list.
Step 3 — uncover the frozen rooms
As you melt deeper, you uncover frozen rooms — the official art shows a fully frozen basement with wooden stairs, a workbench, boxes and ice-caked pipes, centered on an open, glowing freezer. The description promises you'll "discover what caused the freeze" — that answer isn't documented anywhere yet, and the frozen-rooms page keeps the honest mystery tracker.
Playing with others
The game runs 20-player servers and carries the official Co-op tag (sampled 2026-09-27: public servers at 11–14/20 players, ~60 fps). You'll be melting alongside other players — the game's tags (Cleaning, Cozy, Adventure, Co-op, Simulator, Classes, Upgrades) frame it as a relaxed co-op cleanup adventure rather than a competitive one.
What is not documented yet (honest list)
This game is brand new (created 2026-09-13) and no gameplay guides exist yet anywhere. These details are genuinely unknown as of 2026-09-27:
- Controls beyond the melt action (exact keybinds, menus)
- Currency name and prices for tools and upgrades
- Tool names beyond the hairdryer and the flame tool visible in art
- Zone/area names and their order
- Room names and the actual cause of the freeze
- Codes (none exist yet — see the codes status page)
We update these pages as real information surfaces — from the official description, the developer's channels, or confirmed gameplay footage of this game.
