    Tips & Tricks: How to Play Ice Breakers

    Written by John Logsdon

    Ice Breakers is one of the most popular games on Games.com! If you haven't played it yet, here are some tips to help you get started.


    Save your power-ups for higher levels. While it may be tempting to use your power-ups at the lower levels, you may end up regretting that decision as you get passed level 25!


    You only get power-up points for the matches YOU make. After you have made a match, any matches that occur afterwards (due to the board dropping down new tiles) will not count toward your power-up points. So make sure to look carefully at the board before rushing into a match.


    Power-up points do not convey from level to level. If you have extra time left on a level, you may consider avoiding the final color matches you need and instead try and find matches of 4 or more to gain power-ups.



    Make sure you look at the color indicators at the start of each level so you know how many of each you will need in order to complete that level.

    Make sure to read what the penguins are telling you between levels. The information that they provide may help you to know what's coming up in the next level!

    Think you're ready? Play Ice Breakers now!

    What the Heck! - Issues with the site.




    As many people have noticed our site has had some trouble. Yesterday we had a hard ware issue that caused the games to go down. We battled and worked to get the games back up. The games were up and down most of the day.

    When the games were finally stabilized we were all excited. However, we then found out that our star rated games (Bingo, Solitaire Classic, Tri-peaks Solitaire and Slots Lounge) were having issues. Stars were simply not being awarded in those games. Once we found out about that, we had to ACTUALLY take the games down again and restart them.

    Finally, at around 10 PM everything was back to normal. It was a very trying day and we thank everyone for hanging in there with us. We know you have a choice in playing games and appreciate that you have chosen to play with us.

    Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.

    Problems with games March 17th





    This morning we made a change to our sites code that seems to have caused a problem. We're in the process of rolling back the last update and hope to have the site and games stabilized in the next couple of hours.

    This is effecting specifically, Bingo, Slots Lounge, Solitaire Race and our star rated Solitaire suite

    We apologize for all the trouble and appreciate your patience.

    Just a Little Time Out- Comments removed from No Limit Texas Hold Em.




    Don't be alarmed. I took down the comments on Poker just a way of letting everyone cool off on that comments board. Having comments on the games is something we think is good for the community but we have to make sure that it is not some place of abuse or malice. We just want to make sure everyone knows that if there is abuse on our comments boards, we can simply remove them all together.
    The comments will be put back tomorrow.
