Play Ice Age 2 - The Meltdown (U)(Rising Sun) Online
Swap between Manny, Sid, and Diego—each moves differently, like Sid’s awkward belly slides or Diego’s slick wall jumps. Scrat’s chaotic acorn chases are weirdly addicting between collapsing ice bridges and dive-bombing fish-birds.

I picked up Ice Age 2: The Meltdown for the Game Boy Advance back in 2006, a time when licensed platformers were everywhere. Vivendi Universal Games published it, and it was one of those games you'd grab if you were a fan of the movie or just looking for something colorful and straightforward to play on the go. It didn't try to reinvent the wheel, but it had a certain charm that fit right in with the handheld's library.
You control Manny, Sid, and Diego, switching between them to use their unique abilities; Sid can belly slide through narrow tunnels, Diego wall jumps to reach high ledges, and Manny smashes obstacles with his charge. The goal is to guide the herd to safety as the valley floods, navigating screen by screen across melting ice and precarious platforms. You also play as Scrat in frantic bonus stages, chasing his acorn while dodging hazards like collapsing bridges and aggressive dodo birds. The pacing is brisk, with simple puzzles and light combat, though some later stages demand precise timing. It feels like a compact, cheerful adventure that captures the movie's humor without overcomplicating things.
