How to play Floe
Tilt the sheet with the arrow keys, a swipe, or the buttons. Every stone slides at once until it hits a rock, another stone, or the edge.
Win by getting the red stone to stop on the house. Sliding across it doesn't count.
Grey stones are your tools. Park them where the red stone needs a backstop.
Rocks never move.
7Par is the fewest tilts that can solve today's sheet. Undo and restart are free, but every tilt you make still counts.

Tilts over par
How to play Thaw
AMelt one letter at a time. The rest keep their order, and every step must be a real word. Tap a letter to pick it, then tap it again or press Melt.
1Keep going until the word is as short as the goal. Plurals and verb endings count, and so do short words like at, in, a and I. Names and abbreviations don't.
!A melt that doesn't leave a word cracks the ice. So does backing up. Three cracks and you fall through.
?Some words freeze solid: no letter can melt out of them. Look a step or two ahead.
Example
switch → witch → with → wit → it → i
Melting the W from SWITCH would leave SITCH, which isn't a word, so it would crack the ice.
Longer melts later in the week

How to play Auger
3Three fish are hidden under the ice, each in its own square. Tap a square to pick it, then tap again or press Drill.
2No fish there? The hole shows how many steps away the nearest fish is, counting up, down, left and right. Diagonals don't count. A 2 means a fish is exactly 2 steps away and none is closer.
◎Tap any hole to highlight every square at its distance.
🐟A caught fish is gone, so later numbers point to the ones left. Older numbers were true when you drilled them.
✕Use Mark to cross off squares you've ruled out. Marks are free.
Catch all three before you run out of holes. Every lake is checked by a solver that can't see the fish, so careful reasoning always finds them in time.
