It's not new from Michi & Tesa, but I have taken a long time to get around to reviewing it. It's not a bad game, and it is enjoyable enough, so there's really no excuse. Its just taken a while.
The point of the thing is to make ice creams. To do that, you kick the scoops down a conveyor belt in the correct order. The trouble is, there are nasty spiders all around the place who happen to have sweet fangs. They try to steal the ice cream, and are usually pretty successful.
The main difficulty comes not from the fast paced orders and the spiders. Rather the cruel controls which often prevent a sure-fire ice cream delivery coupled with the sheer force-of-numbers spider attacks. Its the controls and the difficulty manoeuvring the baldy-headed ice cream man which prevent this from becoming as huge a hit as it so clearly deserves to be.
Don't get me wrong - there is an excellent game here. I've tried to find it, but constantly got stuck on the controls. For those with longer patience or a deeper understanding of ricochet theory, this may be a simpler game and more enjoyable. I envy those people.

Games controls are bad, so is the graphics, sounds and gameplay.
