Interesting puzzle game, where in you play as the kid Daniel who just moved to Alaska with his mom.
The locals are playing in caves, known to the natives as 'Ice mazes', where in they perform the skate of their people. Daniel now faces the seemingly impossible task of gaining new friends, trying to follow the trails of potential comrades on the ice between the ice mazes. Alaskians, being one with the ice, have mastered the skills of turning and always find the quickest way. Daniel, who up until now have only been one with the keyboard, has not mastered turning. Hilarity ensues.

I want to note that the story parts of this review is my own interpretation of the game. The creator has seemingly drawn inspiration from FROM SOFTWARE titles such as Dark Souls, where showing less of the story makes the player discover and draw connections from clues in the environment.
The puzzle part is solid.

I've had this game crash on me four times in the short time I've played this game. It is annoying when you've spent a lot of time pondering your moves in a turn, and probably forgotten half of them, only for it to crash when you proceed to the next one. The other Democracy games were good, but for me this a pass right now while the issues are there.

Honestly, a right mess to get this working as a group of players. Linking XBOX accounts, starting third party apps and all that. Gave up after little over an hour of trying to get everyone in a group. In a game that is all about playing with others, not having this part of the game working flawlessly is a huge downer.

As always, football manager is fun. They've continued making the experience outside of matches even better.

I do feel the match engine took a step backwards in this iteration however.
It seems a good majority of chances is the same thing.
Player X hits a perfect pass over the defending backline. Player Y misses easy 1on1 opportunity with the GK that follows. This happens two or three times every game and feels a bit unrealistic.
This is my only concrete example, but overall it doesn't feel as sharp as older versions.

Overall it's still a good game however.

Good fun with friends.
