Ice Cream Machine

One of my favorite games on Neopets is the Ice Cream Machine.

The orginal --Ice Cream Factory-- can be found here:

I thought I'd post some game help that I learned while playing it.

The instructions, as they appear on the Ice Cream Machine page:

Adee the Chia has been eating too much Ice Cream. Ice Cream for breakfast, Ice Cream for lunch and Ice Cream for dinner. In fact, she has eaten so much that she's starting to get some pretty strange dreams! In her latest one she is trapped within a giant Ice Cream Machine, and must dodge the killer scoops that are trying to hit her... this time the Ice Cream is out for
revenge!

To play Ice Cream Machine you must control Adee with the mouse, and try and avoid the scoops. Move left, right, up and down - but if you hit the Ice Cream you lose a life. Pick up the
special scoops (the ones with an icon on) for a bonus. The Strawberry Bomb will clear all the
scoops from the screen, and the Scoop Shield will protect you for a limited amount of time.
There are also other bonuses you can collect.

The Levels, Flavors, and Numbers of Scoops needed to complete each level
Level Flavor # of Scoops

1. Stawberry 25
2. Vanilla 50
3. Chocolate 75
4. Mint 100
5. Blueberry 125
6. Vanilla Ch. Chip 150
7. Stawberry/Vanilla/Chocolate 175
8. Peach 200
9. Vanilla Chocolate Swirl 225
10. Double Chocolate 250
11. Tigersquash 275
12. Rainbow 300 *
13. Garlic 310

*This is the level that I have personally gotten to, although only temporarily...

Scoring:
Each Scoop: 5 points
With topping: X2 (Strawberry, Chocolate, & Caramel)
Cherry Bomb: 100 points (Yellow with Cherry)
Fish Head: 250 points
Oliver Head: 1000 points.
(To get the Oliver Head, you must start the game, but not the level. Be on the "get ready" screen --a huge splat of the level flavor, with the flavor name and number of scoops you need. Adee is also splatted with the level flavor, although this splat won't go against your total lives. You have to wait for Adee to change into Oliver (a blonde guy with a 5 o'clock shadow beard and an orange shirt). There'll be a sound that tells you when that happens, and the wait is about 5 minutes. The Oliver Head is random, but if you can get it, it'll net you 1000 points!)

Always grab, if possible:
Pink Scoop with Heart: Extra Life
Gray Scoop with Shield: Scoop Shield (But only for a few seconds.)
Purple Scoop with small Chia: Shrinks Chia

Grab with discrestion:
Green Scoop with "+" sign: Speeds scoops up.
Red Scoop with "-" sign: Slows scoops down.
Strawberry Bomb: Clears all scoops from screen (Red scoop with strawberry)

Avoid grabbing:
Blue Scoop with big Chia: Makes Chia grow.

Also, beaware that if a special effect is in place --caused by either of the speed scoops, or
the size scoops, grabbing the Cherry Bomb, Fish Head, Extra Life, or Scoop Shield will return
the Chia to normal, as well as reset the speed of the scoops to the level's default speed.

I hope this helps. Have fun! :D
