These dibbles are really stupid; Sacrificing themselves by stretching there body onto razor sharp icicles and making everyone else bump into it instead of turning around!

Haunting music. It makes me wonder if I am also blindly sacrificing myself for the hollow gains of another. Oooh look, Kong Plus: I'll have two please!

Must be the sociopath in me, but I found the game all too enjoyable. I actually went and did my best to get on the scoreboard for once. Though I have no idea where I could be missing 10k points from first place though. 5/5

I'm stuck on the last level. Not because it's confusing, but because I can't convince myself not to terminate the king.

This is a very good game, the music is awesome! but, All the little things put together like the music, the dedicated guys, the snowstorm, it makes me kinda depressed ;p 4/5

This music is...unique! It adds a sad, melancholic tone to the grim idea of the suicidal servants, always willing to give their own lives to their master! Great game.

I find it kind of funny that the tutorial at the start says, "they will follow the command in the stone even if it means their death", as if they had any chance of surviving any stone at all.

Wait! WAIT!!! *Dibble jumps into water* No! Don't ju-- *Dibble jumps over spiky ice plant* Come on now... *Dibble pulls own head off to make a springboard platform* Please! You don't have to do this! You know that igloo you came out of? Well, you can solidify more snow to make things like bridges and stairs WITHOUT having to die. *Dibble walk into frozen plant... and another... and another... another walks off a ledge to a splat* Wait, they keep going if a Dibble hasn't become something to block them? How tragic; they don't have enough basic intellect to preserve their own lives. :'( *Dibble pulls out own intestines to make bungee cord* O.O OK that was the last straw! *Scoops up the entire remaining Dibble race* I don't care if it's not "proper nature". I'm bringing you all home and I promise you'll be happy from now on. *hugs/kisses/cuddles them*

Could use a button for turbo, that way I wouldn't need to take my mouse off the stones and miss a dibble. Great game though, a little bit depressing but 5/5.

The paperwork for being in the king's service must be insane. "I understand that my job might put me in situations where i must freeze to death and have my fellow workers tear pieces of me off in order to climb a wall for the king's passage....." The list goes on lol

Level 36 is brilliant. I dug three times, then terminated every single poor dibble but the king. I smiled and felt like cheating. There's plenty of puzzle games where some hard levels can be solved by sneaking around the obstacles, and that's often [always] a designer's fault. So I checked the real solution in the walkthrough, only to see that the "smart" way was the correct one! Also, in every level there are well placed objects preventing the player from taking a shorter and easier route to the goal. 44 levels of perfectly designed game. You deserve my bow.

Let me see... Did the King learn his lesson when his kingdom suffered from lack of taxes due to the high mortality rate? NO WAY!!!!!

What really pisses me off is that, even as much as I want to, I can't pause the game over night to make the king freeze and suffer. With that warm and furry cape he doesn't even shiver.

Impossible not to remember my lovely "oh no !" lemmings blockers... Yes, it was on Amiga... At least my Kong Level still overcomes my real age :p 5/5 Fav for the nostalgy ^^
