  It’s pretty much what you’d expect from mobile puzzler, with a few twists and it definitely holds up as a title that’s worth the money. And while I wasn’t able to swing a hammer myself to smash that ice, nor was I allowed to wield an axe and spiked-helmet (living out my true Viking fantasy), I really dug this game. And at the not-so-steep pricepoint of “pocket change,” this one really gives you a lot of smash for your buck.

  In general, I found Icebreaker greatly amusing. It’s just a puzzle game, so don’t expect a miracle if you aren’t a fan of these in the first place, but it is a great, fun game with unusual challenges and nice graphics. Among hundreds of neon, minimalistic puzzles on Android, it’s nice to play a fully-featured game from time to time.

  Fortunately, there's enough variety and imagination in the level design, not to mention humor in the game's storytelling, to help Icebreaker just about rise above these concerns. You can expect a stiffer challenge here than you'll get from the average physics puzzler, but that's not necessarily a bad thing in 2013.

  Those small problems aside, Icebreaker: A Viking Voyage is a genuinely thrilling, imaginative and addicting game. The graphics are impressive, it can be uproariously funny at times, and the gameplay is clever and distinctive. It’s a great first outing from Rovio’s new publishing arm, Rovio Stars.

  The controls in Icebreaker: A Viking Voyage are easy enough to get used to given time, however. Between the game’s good humor, varied gameplay, and interesting puzzles, it’d be a shame to sit out this voyage, even though hitting an iceberg is inevitable.

  I’m not entirely sure that I could be any happier with Icebreaker. It’s an incredibly fun, incredibly diverse, and incredibly clever physics puzzler. One packed with enough tasks to complete (all coins, par, etc) to keep players busy for a good long while.
