CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This cheerful platform-style game lacks any sort of customization, but younger players are nonetheless sure to have a good time. You can skip the rather lengthy background story by hitting the Escape key. Basically, you control a small, purple, blob-like creature named Glace, who must navigate various platforms and chasms while collecting gems and knocking out odd-looking enemies. The end goal is to collect three magic beads. The two-dimensional cartoonish graphics are sunny and bright, and the music fits the mood of the game well. Children won't have a problem maneuvering their characters with the keyboard, but the controls can't be reconfigured. Nor can you resize the screen or even mute the volume, but since the game's totally free, we can only complain so much. Kids who don't have much experience with video games will be delighted with this download.Publisher's description

Version: Glace 1.2
Pros: when you finish the game once you gotta play it again to collect more diamond for new abilitys. That way game can have more fun.
Cons: too much talking between the characters.
-
Version: Glace 1.2
Pros: This game feels very solid and well put together. The graphics are cutesy (very Nintendo) but that shouldn't let older players be put off and there are some neat little special effects.
The control system takes a bit of getting used to but is rewarding once you get the *feel* of it. Wall bounce and super jump techniques let you get around the levels more than you might think at first glance.
Story elements fit in well with the game and there are some good set pieces.
Cons: The actual content of the levels tends to be fairly similar throughout. Could do with some different level objects as the game progresses.

Version: Glace 1.2
"Best game ever!! I'm completly hooked!"
Pros: Great storyline, good graphics, easy to use controls, a smooth ride with very few bumps. Easy enough for a six-year-old to play, yet difficult enough to keep the pros sweating.
Cons: If you somehow lose this game, you might go into depression.
