How to play

Ice Cream Stack is an order-matching arcade game. Each customer hands you a ticket listing the scoops they want, bottom to top. Scoops rain from the top of the parlor — slide your cone to catch each scoop in the exact order on the ticket. Catch the right flavor and it lands on your stack; catch the wrong flavor and the whole stack splats, costing you a life. Let a scoop the customer asked for fall past your cone and you lose a life too. Scoops nobody ordered can be safely ignored. Finish every order to serve the next customer, who asks for a longer ticket while the scoops fall faster. You have 3 lives — game over at zero.

Controls

Move the cone with the Left and Right arrow keys (or A/D). On touch screens, slide your finger across the parlor and the cone follows. Enter or Space starts the game from the overlay.

Tips

Watch the ticket's highlighted scoop — that's the only flavor you need right now, and everything else is a decoy you should dodge. Position the cone under the needed scoop early, because falling scoops speed up as orders grow. Don't hover in the middle: camp near where the next wanted flavor is drifting so you never let it slip past. A perfect order (no splats, no drops) banks a combo bonus that grows with every consecutive perfect order, so play safe and steady rather than greedy.

Scoring

Each correctly caught scoop scores 10 points. Completing an order adds 50 points per scoop. A perfect order (no mistakes) adds a combo bonus of 100 times your combo level, and raises the combo by one. Any mistake resets the combo and the current stack. Orders start at 3 scoops and grow to 6 as you serve more customers.
