Play Ice Age Online

I picked up Ice Age on the Game Boy Advance back in 2002, a time when licensed games were a common sight on the handheld. Ubisoft published it, and it was one of many titles trying to capture the movie's charm in a portable format. It didn't aim to redefine the system, but it was a solid choice if you were a fan of the film and looking for something new to play on the go.

You control the woolly mammoth Manfred and the sloth Sid, switching between them to solve puzzles and navigate levels. The main goal is to rescue the human baby and return him to his tribe, which involves moving through a series of side scrolling stages. You spend your time platforming across icy ledges, using Sid's small size to crawl through narrow passages, and employing Manny's strength to push heavy blocks. You also collect acorns scattered throughout the levels, which often requires careful exploration. The game can be challenging, with some precise jumps needed and enemies that require a well timed ground pound to defeat. It feels like a straightforward adventure that captures the movie's simple, earnest tone.
