How to play

  1. Throw. Put a finger anywhere on the ice, pull back and let go. The dots show which way it will go. More dots means a harder throw. Changed your mind? Slide back to where you started and let go, and nothing is thrown.
  2. Sweep. While it slides, scrub anywhere on the ice and the brush sweeps just in front of it. Swept ice is faster, so it carries further. It helps most just before it stops. Scrub right beside the square and it leans that way.
  3. Curl. Something in the way? Pick Curl left or Curl right under the ice before you throw. The square bends that way as it slows down, so aim to one side and let it come back. Sweeping holds it straighter.
  4. Score. Each square scores up to 100 for stopping near the middle. Five squares, so 500 is perfect.
  • The dark squares are yours.
  • The pale ones were here first. They don't score. Knock them out of the way.
  • A square that stops short of the line comes off the sheet.

There's a new sheet every day, and you get one go at it. Your best round of the week counts, and the board starts fresh every Monday. Practice as much as you like on yesterday's sheet.

Easy to forget? Once you're on the board, turn on the morning reminder and I'll email you when each new sheet is up.

Want more goes? Every friend who puts their first score on the board through your invite link gives you a bonus try that week (up to 3): another go at that day's sheet.
