Enjoy the classic Famicom Disk System (FDS) game Ice Climber (Japan) (Disk Writer). Scale icy peaks, smash blocks, collect veggies, and dodge enemies in this retro platformer adventure.
Ice Climber (Japan) (Disk Writer) is the original Famicom Disk System (FDS) version of the beloved 1985 platformer by Nintendo. This edition features Popo and Nana, two determined climbers who scale treacherous ice mountains to recover stolen vegetables from a giant condor. As an FDS title, it leverages the disk format's capabilities for smoother animations and richer sound compared to cartridge releases. Players navigate vertically scrolling stages filled with slippery platforms, breakable ice blocks, and quirky enemies in a race against time.
• Cooperative & Competitive Play: Team up with a friend in two-player mode or compete for high scores
• Dynamic Environments: Break through ice ceilings with your hammer, avoid falling platforms, and dodge avalanches
• Challenging Enemies: Battle seals, polar bears, and birds with unique movement patterns
• Vegetable Bonuses: Collect produce like eggplants and turnips for extra points
• Bonus Stages: Enter hidden bonus areas by reaching the summit quickly
• FDS-Exclusive Elements: Enhanced audio tracks and smoother character animations
Can I play alone?
Absolutely! The game features a dedicated single-player mode where you control Popo solo.
What happens if I run out of time?
A giant condor swoops in and carries your climber away, ending the stage. Watch the timer at the top of the screen!
How do I defeat the polar bears?
Time your hammer swing (X key) as they approach. Aim upward when they jump toward your platform—timing is critical!
