Sports games nowadays all have one common theme - they try to emulate reality far too closely and seem to be afraid to try a more arcadey style. There aren't that many arcade games where you're flying cross court to slam dunk the opponent or utilizing super powers to smack a tennis ball right in their face. Flash games still stay in the arcade era, though, because they're so simple that they have to rely on gameplay. Yeti Sports is one of the main examples. Let's look at Yeti Sports X: Icicle Climb.

To play Yeti Sports X: Icicle Climb, just run it with whatever SWF player you have.

The gameplay here is much simpler and much easier than the past couple of entries. You simply need to click and throw the icicle at a certain distance from the penguin, who will then jump up onto it if it isn't too far away. The only difficulty that comes from this is timing the toss well. Unlike the last couple of games, there is a very clear path to an optimal score. It's a little disappointing compared to the last couple of games, and in some ways, it's even simpler than the first game of the series.

All in all, Yeti Sports X: Icicle Climb is one of the more disappointing games in the series, which is a shame because it's also the last available online.
