Icicle Climb

 

Icicle Climb gives the yeti twelve icicles and a sheer cliff to drive them into. Each one he throws sticks in the rock face and makes a step, and the penguin waiting at the bottom hops from step to step up the wall -- except that a penguin can only clear 1.2 metres in a single jump. The whole game is planning the climb before the throwing starts: space the icicles too far apart and he runs out of reach, crowd them too close together and the twelve are gone before he is halfway up.

It is the tenth of Chris Hilgert's Yeti Sports games and the last of the original Flash run, the one after Final Spit. A Christmas version of the same cliff, Xmas Climb, dresses it in snow.
