The Action Screen is viewed from above showing a part of the level on the screen.
Each level is made up of Hexagon shaped rooms with various objects inside to help or hinder you in your quest.
There are six types of rooms and these are empty, a lake which cannot be crossed, a sword which contains various items, a fire which replenishes your firestick, ice which is difficult to cross and a black moline which cannot be entered.
Each room has has various entrances and each room can be rotated to align entrances.
As you explore the Palace there are various waves of creatures which when touched moves a gauge from good to evil and when it reaches evil it is game over.
You can destroy these creatures with your firestick and once a wave is defeated then a spinning cylinder appears and when touched increases your gauge to good.
The adventure screen has text and allows you to interact with objects found and solve puzzles.
You can also see how many pieces of the crown are found, your good/evil gauge, indicator of any nasties in the area and a candle showing how much time you have left.
About Commodore 64
Released in 1982, the Commodore 64 is the best-selling home computer model of all time, with an enormous software library spanning games, productivity tools, and everything in between. C64 game collecting centers on cassette tapes and floppy disks in their original packaging — physical media that's inherently fragile, so complete, working copies from the era are increasingly prized by retro computing collectors.
Gamevaro tracks Ice Palace for Commodore 64 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Ice Palace to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This C64 release dates back to 1985.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Ice Palace, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Commodore 64 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
