I LOVED the art for this, but I feel the game's story was lacking. Not because it was poorly done, but because it seemed like it relied on the player having a good knowledge of The Snow Queen beforehand. I did not, so a lot of things confused me. Still, the presentation was solid (aside from the fire/cold mechanic and the looping map) and I see potential here, for what it was.
