Ice Cream Machine Guide
Written by mastahmacker24
The ice cream factory is one of the games where you can get some pretty easy
neopoints. But before I go on to some of the tips and tricks I use to be
successful in this game, lets get on with the game's facts:
Difficulty: Easy
Location: Games > Action > Ice Cream Factory
Link:
http://www.neopets.com/games/icecream2.phtml
Payout: 10 neopoints for every 100 points you get
Max Neopoints Receivable: 1000 which basically means you need to get 10,000
points
In this game you must control Adee with the mouse, and try and avoid the ice
cream scoops coming from the cones at the bottom of the screen. Move left,
right, up and down - but if you hit the Ice Cream you lose a life. In the
beginning, you start with 3 lives. But as you go on you get bonuses that may
increase your life.
Some of these bonuses are:
*The Strawberry Bomb
Will clear all the scoops from the screen. Useful when you get overwhelmed by
the scoops.
*Scoop Shield
Will protect you for a limited amount of time. This will disappear if you get
hit or take another bonus icon.
*Large Adee
Will make your character bigger. The most useless bonus of all. Avoid getting
this as you will get hit more easily.
*Small Adee
Will make your character smaller. Useful because you can squeeze into tight
spots more easily.
*Fast scoops
A green colored scoop with a plus sign on it. Makes the scoops go faster. Useful
in the beginning when the scoops are very slow (speed them up to get NPs
faster). This scoop stacks with another scoop of the same kind (example: 2 fast
scoops= 2x faster).
*Slow scoops
A red colored scoop with a negative sign on it. Another useful scoop later on in
the game where the scoops are harder to dodge. This scoop stacks with another
scoop of the same kind (example: 2 slow scoops= 2x slower).
*Cherry bonus
A scoop with a cherry in it. Gives extra 100 points or 10 neopoints.
*Fish bonus
A fish shaped scoop. Gives 250 points or 25 neopoints.
*Life bonus
A heart shaped, colored pink scoop. Gives you 1 additional life.
Stage Quotas: (lvl/sccops name/scoop number)
*Basically you get an additional 25 scoops you need to dodge every round, as
well as getting faster every round.
Lvl 1 (strawberry) = 25
Lvl 2 (vanilla) = 50
Lvl 3 (chocolate) = 75
Lvl 4 (mint) = 100
Lvl 5 (blueberry) = 125
Lvl 6 (Vanilla chocolate chip) =150
Lvl 7 (Strawberry Vanilla Chocolate) =175
Lvl 8 (Peach) = 200
Lvl 9 (Vanilla Chocolate Swirl) = 225
Lvl 10(Double Chocolate) = 250
Lvl 11(Tigersquash) = 275
General Tips:
1. Grab the fast scoops in the beginning of the game. This will speed up the
process of getting NPs.
2. Grab slow scoops in the later part of the game. Prevents you from losing a
life.
3. Pick the small Adee over the large Adee bonus. In this game the adage "bigger
is better" doesn't ring true. You will just be a huge target for the scoops.
4. Get the life, fish and cherry bonus, but don't trade a life in doing so. If
it's too far and you got a bunch of scoops covering your way, just leave it. If
not, get it.
5. Have Adee placed on the least bombarded area. Less scoops coming at you, less
chances of you losing a life.
My personal best is only 9150. And with practice you can do the same, probably
and most likely more. So imagine even if you get 5000 points every game, that's
500 NPs every game! x3 tries that's 1500np!! So keep at it and have fun.
