In Game A Dance of Fire and Ice you have to guide two rotating planets along a certain winding trajectory, while it is forbidden to disturb their ideal balance. These two planets symbolize fire and ice, and only in balance can they exist together. Levels represented by different worlds, which you can return to for replay if you wish. Built-in level editor – to create your own unique world.

Movement must be carried out strictly in accordance with the rhythm of the background music, trusting your hearing more than your eyesight. The levels feature different types of music genres that suit the visual design of the world. The traversed path is divided into cells, which are temporary windows into which you need to get. Control from both the keyboard and gamepad is supported.

Hints on what tiles may appear in A Dance of Fire and Ice:

• Snail – a wider window, easier to get into timing, means a decrease in tempo.
• Hare – a narrow window, it is more difficult to get into the time frame, it is used at a high tempo of music.

The design of the backgrounds at the levels is different, they can be static and dynamic: a huge stem stretching into the sky, a moving train, a tunnel, lights on a chain placed in the distance of space. There are also aggressive ones that challenge the player, as well as cute ones, with cheerful children's music and simple animation in the background. But the ease of music does not mean that it is just as easy to pass; on such routes you should not relax too much.
