The Ice Breaker

Singleplayer Adventure

Imagine being the only girl in your community. No like-minded friends to play with, but a whole lot of grumpy old people doing their daily business. Boring? Yes, a LOT, Sha’an thinks as well. Not even the place where you live is interesting. Your village is surrounded by endless icebergs, and the water is freezing. Technically. Being Sha’an has a wonderful bonus: Since you are the only amphibian, you don’t care about the cold. So if you can’t change the boring area, what about changing the people? It looks like there are a lot of quarrels to solve. If they all are happy again, the place might become more lively?

This adventure takes you into icy waters where you can explore a lot and have to solve quests given by various NPCs. Quests are solved by picking up objects or taking pictures of certain objects.
