An '''ice block''' is a special type of [[block]] introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. In addition to those that can push [[block|dirt blocks]], [[object]]s that can push ice blocks also include other ice blocks.


It can also be inserted into [[Chip's Challenge 1]] using the patch [http://davidstolp.com/old/chips/patches/pgchip.html pgchip] by [[David Stolp|pieguy]]. The properties of ice blocks from this patch are slightly different from those of Chip's Challenge 2.

* Ice blocks can be pushed over many tiles that are [[acting wall]]s to normal blocks, like [[thief|thieves]] and [[computer chip]]s.
* Ice blocks can be pushed over many tiles that are [[acting wall]]s to normal blocks, like [[hint]]s and [[computer chip]]s.
* If a [[block|dirt block]] is [[Item Bestowal|bestowed]] [[fire boots]] and then [[transmogrifier|transformed]], the resulting ice block will not melt in [[flame jet]]s or convert fire to water. If it is bestowed [[flippers]], it will not convert water to ice.
* Ice blocks can remove some [[acting dirt]] in addition to dirt itself, like fake [[blue wall]]s, [[lock]]s (when carrying the corresponding [[key]]s), and [[socket]]s (if the chip count is zero). More precisely, they will only remove [[terrain]] acting dirt and will not pick up [[static object]]s, even blue keys.
* Ice blocks on floor or [[wire]]s will melt into water when a [[fireball]] collides with them.

After applying the pgchip patch, one of the [[unused]] tiles is then replaced with the ice block in the tile index. The patch was written before Chip's Challenge 2 was released, so David Stolp worked with descriptions from [[Chuck Sommerville]] to create the tile.

Special level sets, or just special levels in a set, have been made to demonstrate the effects of the ice block; Chip can play the levels that do not have the tile in them normally, but must use pgchip to play the ones with.
