Collection essentials #9: Frostbite (2600)

 

I had this game on my wishlist, so I was pretty happy when cousin Keith gifted me his old Atari games with this one included. In Frostbite, you hop across tiles of ice to rebuild an igloo at the top of the screen while making sure you don’t get pushed into the water by pesky animals or grabbed by a polar bear. You can spend a piece of the igloo to reverse the flow of the ice and avoid death, which sets you back a bit but can be a necessary trade. Another prime example of a game that’s an ideal fit for the Atari.
