The pirates are also after the treasure, so they collectively decide to hold the Arctic games to determine who gets the prize.
The players participate in a series of short comic events including ski jumping, ice smashing, glacial hopping etc.
The players may choose any side - Manny and the herd or the seafaring pirates (the crew).
There's also a two-player competition mode.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks Ice Age: Continental Drift - Arctic Games for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Ice Age: Continental Drift - Arctic Games to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2012.
