All About Crystals

All Icewind games are absolutely free to play, and they will always be that way! Obviously, we need to make some money off these games somehow (so we can keep on designing new wonders) but our philosophy has always been to reward players who purchase Crystals, but never punish players that don't.

So if you don't want to - or simply can't - pay for Icewind Crystals, don't worry! You'll still be able to play all our games in their entirety. However, for those of you who can, here's a few examples of what you can buy with Crystals:

• "Naturally Gifted" Perk: All your skills and talents increase at a slightly faster rate.
• "Wildspark's Cookie": Hey, that cookie belongs to Icewind Co-Founder Wildspark! Eating this delicious cookie makes you exude an aura of well-being. You cannot be attacked for a short amount of time.
• "Snailian's Slimetank": Belonging to Icewind Co-Founder Snailian, this purloined pack will give you access to the unique "Slime-em!" attack - at least, until all the slime runs out. (5 charges)

And many, many... Many... More! To see how much Crystals cost, and to get a complete list of all the goodies available, visit the Icewind Store.

Remember: All Icewind games are totally FREE!

We will never, ever punish players who don't spend money on Icewind games. However, we hope that if you enjoy the games we have to offer, and you have a few bucks spare, you'll consider sharing some of your wealth with us. We promise to put the majority of what Icewind makes back into the company - with maybe a little left over for ourselves so we can buy pizza and ice cream. We're not savages, after all.
