Ice Nine contains 18 levels. Each has a different set of objectives.
Sometimes you will have to move quickly and quietly, sticking to
shadows for concealment and avoiding a firefight whenever possible.
Other times, you will be pitted against hordes of enemies with no other
option than to kill them all and escape safely. Before each mission,
Agent Kurtz will give you a quick overview of your objective. Pay close
attention to what he tells you; your safety, and the safety of the
entire world, depends on the success of your mission.
=======================================================================
B. S T O R Y
=======================================================================
Ice Nine is set at the secret CIA training facility called "The Farm,"
located on Camp Peary in Virginia. A young trainee agent, Tom Carter,
is failed during his training, then recruted by his ex-trainer, Agent
Kurtz, to take part in a secret undercover operation designed to thwart
the theft of the destructive "ICE NINE" computer virus, capoable of
damaging the entire world's power supply.
You are Agent Tom Carter. As a covert operative for the CIA, you must
perform mission handed down by Agent Kurtz. These missions will slowly
unlock a conspiracy within the CIA that leads right to the top. Are you
tough enough to take on the dangers that Agent Kurtz throws your way?
Stay strong, stay alert, and stay alive. Remeber, trust no one...

WEAPONS
Combat Knife - Swift and silent. The Combat Knife is your basic weapon.
It should only be used for surprise attacks or when you
are fighting close range battles. Good whenever stealth
is a must.
KH Supressed Pistol - Silenced Spec-Ops pistol. Use it to take out the
lone enemies. The pistol is a quiet weapon, but
it is lacking in the strength department as well.
Another good stealth weapon.
MZ5 Sub-Machine Gun - The MZ5-SMG packs a stronger punch than the
pistol. It can spray a roomful of enemies much
quicker than your other weapons, but you cant use
it on stealth missions.
K0D1 Sniper Rifle - Take out your enemies from afar. Press the L and R
Buttons together to enter Zoom Mode. Use the L
Button to zoom in and the R Button to zoom out. The
K0D1 is the best weapon for stealth combat [and in
my opinion, the best weapon in the game].
SP33 Shotgun - A slow but powerful weapon. The SP33 fire a spread of
shots that will devastate anyone in your way. Only use
it in close range combat; it won't hit over a large
distance.
P02 Grenade Launcher - The P02 fires grenades capable of taking out
groups of enemies. Be warned though, it is also
quite capable of taking YOU out as well if you
aren't careful. The shots land a short distance
in front of you and have a second or two delay
before they detonate.
SJ90 Rocket Launcher - The SJ90-RL has a scope similar to the K0D1
Sniper Rifle. It fires a large rocket over a
long range, but accuracy is limited by distance.
It also has splash damage, so don't be too close
when firing at someone.
PICKUPS
Pistol Ammo - Ammunition for the KH Suppressed Pistol.
MZ5 Ammo - Ammunition for the MZ5 Sub-Machine Gun.
Shells - Ammunition for the SP33 Shotgun.
Rifle Ammo - Ammunition for the K0D1 Sniper Rifle.
Grenades - Ammunition for the P02 Grenade Launcher.
Rockets - Ammunition for the SJ90 Rocket Launcher.
Drug Rounds - Used to render a target immobile for a short period of
time.
Access Cards - Green, Blue and Red access cards are used to enter
certain areas.
Gel Rounds - Non-lethal knockout rounds.
Small Health Kit - Restores 10% of your health.
Medium Health Kit - Restores 25% of your health.
Large Health Kit - Restores 50% of your health.
Lite Body Armor - Adds 10% to your armor.
Medium Body Armor - Adds 25% to your armor.
Heavy Body Armor - Adds 50% to your armor.
Night Vision Goggles - Press Select Button + B Button to activate the
Night Vision Goggles. As you might expect, they
allow you to see in the dark. [Liek OMFGZORZ!1!]

HEADS UP DISPLAY [HUD]
Health Counter - Upper left corner. Guess what this does? That's right,
it tells you how much health you have left.
Armor Meter - Under the Health Meter. Tells you how much armor you have
left. This meter is empty when you start a mission. Get a
Body Armor pickup to fill it.
Ammo Counter - Upper right corner. Tells you how much ammo your current
weapon has.
Timer - Bottom right corner. On some missions, a timer will appear
telling you how much time you have left to finish the mission.
Enemy Counter - Bottom left corner. Tells you how many enemies you've
killed or how many enemies you must kill. [which one
it is, though, depends on the mission]
Civilian Counter - Above the Enemy Counter. On one or two missions, you
will fail after killing a certain number of
civilians. This tells you how many you've whacked so
far. [it is only there in a few missions, not all of
them.]
Special - Location varies. Sometimes, other things will come up on your
HUD. They could be messages like "Target Tagged" or "Mission
Failed - You Killed A Civilian" or other things like that.
THE MAP SCREEN
In the Map Screen you can check on your mission objectives and take a
look at the layout of the level you are on. See the CONTROLS section
for the Map Screen Controls.

SAVING YOUR GAME
At the beginning of a mission, you will be given the option to save
your game. There are four Save Slots. Chose on to save your game in.
LOADING YOUR GAME
If you've saved your game, you can return to the mission you saved
before by choosing Load Game at the Main Menu. Select the Save Slot you
wish to load from.
MISSION FAILED?
When you die or fail to complete an objective, your current mission
will end. You can begin the mission at the starting point when this
happens.
=======================================================================
G. T I P S
=======================================================================
-Pay close attention to your mission briefing. Kurtz may give you
specific instructions, such as knocking a target out instead of killing
them, or avoiding detection instead of blowing everyone to Hell. If you
forget your mission parameters, go to the Map to check them.
-Bump into doors to open them. If you need to do something before you
can get in, a Special alert will appear on your HUD to let you know.
[See the Basic Information section to learn about Special alerts]
-Search levels for hidden caches of ammo, items and weapons. It'll be
easier to complete the mission if you have more ammo, armor and
weapons.
-You will need to jump over obstacles to get to an objective sometimes.
Press the B Button and a direction to jump over an obstacle.
-Enemies can pop out of hiding above or below your default line of
fire. Hold the R and L Buttons to enter Free Aim Mode, and use the
Control Pad to move your crosshair. Release the R and L buttons to exit
Free Aim Mode. You CANNOT enter Free Aim Mode with a Sniper Rifle or a
Rocket Launcher.
-There are objects in the game that can be destroyed by shooting them
or slashing them with the Combat Knife. The grates that block your
progress on certain levels can be shot out or cut open. Shooting
explosive barrels will cause a grenade sized explosion that will kill
anything in the splash range.
-If you are kiled during a mission, don't forget that you can still
retry from the start of that mission.
-If you find your movements too sluggish, try increasing your
Sensitivity.
-If you find yourself turning too quickly, try lowering your
Sensitivity.
-At the end of a successful mission, you will recieve a score. If you
finish the mission with a High Score, you can register your initials.
-Your enemies are smart. They can hear your footsteps and gunfire as
you get closer to them. Be very careful on missions that require
stealth.
-Think before you shoot. You may want to go kill everything or pop a
shot in a civilian's head as target practice, but DON'T! Killing
civilians loses you points [200 IIRC] and may cause you to either
undershoot the score requirement in some missions or fail the
mission as soon as they die.
-Civilians must be protected at all cost, or you risk a mission
failure/point deduction.
-Finishing the game on different Difficulties will unlock things.
You may unlock new modes, extra levels, or Unlimited Health and Ammo.
=======================================================================
H. M I S S I O N S
=======================================================================
This is not a terribly in-depth walkthrough. The enemy locations are
impossible to tell in this guide, because they move around. The targets
also seem to be different whenever you redo the missions with targets.
This will, however, provide details on how to complete your missions
and things you need to know about the mission you are on.
MISSION 1 - Down On The Farm
Easy mission. First, make your way to the grate, breaking all
of the enemy targets that you can. Until you get to the grate,
you only have your Combat Knife. After you break the grate, get
the KH Suppressed Pistol and make your way to the next door,
again breaking all of the enemy targes that you can. You will
have to find a switch to open the door, so go ahead into one of
the wood houses and press the switch. Next, you will get an MZ5
SMG. Break all of the enemy targets you see while making your
way to the exit. If you break 6 civilian targets at any time
during this mission, you will fail and have to do it over
again. You must get a certain score in order to win this
mission.
MISSION 2 - The Silent Hand Of Death
This is a little more difficult. This time, you have ten
minutes to break all of the enemy targets you can, and make it
to the exit. Only in this one you have to do so with a K0D1
Sniper Rifle. Same rules as the last mission, 6 dead civilians
is an instant mission failure and you must get a certain score
to pass.
MISSION 3 - Fox & Hunters
Now the missions get a little less easy. You must first hit 12
agents, then you must hit Agent Hannah before she leaves the
city. Now for the hard part; If a civilian sees your weapon,
you lose; if Hannah sees you twice, you lose; If you use your
knife instead of the rifle, you lose; and if you hit a
civilian, guess what? You lose! Anyway, you have to shoot the
guys that are wearing RED pants, and the guys that have the
guns. Then you have to shoot Hannah just once. Luckily, you can
check the position of Hannah and all of the Agents, by using
your map. After you have done this, holster your weapon and
leave the city. This time, there is no required score. [don't
forget to holster your weapon. If you get seen with a weapon
after you do all that, you gotta do it all over again]
MISSION 4 - Working For The Man
Another easy mission. You have to go around and shoot everyone
you see with your Gel Rounds. You have to clear out the first
floor in order to proceed to the second floor, and so on. After
you've cleared out the first floor, look for an elevator. It
will only open when you have hit eveyone on the first floor.
Take the elevator, then clear out the second floor. Take the
next elevator. Now when you clear out this floor, look for a
door that is different than all of the others. Go in there,
then make your way to the CIA servers to finish the mission.
If you need health, run into one of the cabinets with a red +
on it. It gives you a small health treatment [+10%]. You may
notice that sometimes the cabinets will give you more than 10%,
but it will still say that you only got 10% back.
MISSION 5 - No Picnic
A fairly difficult mission if you aren't skilled in First
Person Shooters. If you are, then this should be easy. Okay,
first you have to find yourself a pair of Night Vision Goggles.
They are underneath one of the lights outside of the wooden
houses. Next, you must kill ALL of the guards. Do so while
making your way to the exit. Now, you may get P02 Grenade
Launcher in this mission. Don't get too excited; it sucks in
this mission because of the short range that the grenades are
launched.
MISSION 6 - Overtime At Langley
Ugh. Worst. Mission. Evar. It's bloody hard on higher
difficulties than Initiate. You have to shoot everyone on your
current floor, then get the access cards, then go to an
elevator. Sounds easy right? Not so fast. On the second and
third floors, you have to do it without hitting a security
camera or being seen by a security camera. If you shoot near a
security camera [like under it for example] it will still
break, and you will still lose. To deal with that problem, you
must cut the power on those floors, by hitting a switch. So,
find the switch, shoot the enemies, get the access card, go to
the third floor.The switch is located in a room southeast of
the elevator. Now do the same thing on the third floor, but
instead of going to a new floor, you have to go to Hannah's
office. The switch is directly across from the elevator. Now
that this is over with, you should be ready for anything else
you have to do in this game.
MISSION 7 - Spyhunter
Very easy mission. You don't even have to kill anyone. You've
got four and a half minutes to get to Hannah and her contact.
If you look on your map, it's the blue dot. You have to go up a
ladder onto the roof behind them, and jump down towards them,
and then you win. Although you don't HAVE to kill anyone, it
makes it easier if you kill all of the snipers and all of the
Agents that you can. Oh, and don't kill Hannah or her contact,
or you will lose.
MISSION 8 - Takedown
Now you get to kill Hannah's contact. Just take down all of the
Agents that get in the way [again, you don't have to, but this
will be hard as hell if you don't]. Brady, the contact, is the
one that looks different than all of the Agents, and he can
take quite a few hits before he dies. Just get up close to him,
and shoot him with your MZ5, and he should die. The reason you
should get close is because he can't really hit you with his
P02 at close range, and will most likely kill himself with it.
MISSION 9 - Fugitive
Well, if you are on Graduate or Veteran, all I can say is good
luck; you'll need it. Anyway, kill all of the Agents you see,
and get the access cards. After you get each card, you'll have
to find a switch to open a door before you can go any farther.
About halfway through the level, you'll get Night Vision
Goggles. It's not too hard to finish from there. Since you get
an SP33 in this mission, take the time to try it out and
practice using it. Use that and the MZ5 to finish this mission.
Again, the cabinets with red +'s on them will provide you with
a Health Kit, except this time, you get a Large and a Small
one.
MISSION 10 - Break & Enter
You have to kill all of the Agents in Hannah's mansion, then
get the Red Access Card from the last Agent you kill. After
that, use the card to get into Hannah's room, so you can
take her laptop [the laptop is marked on your map]. Now an
alarm will sound and you will have one and a half minutes to
get out or you fail the mission. Oh, use the K0D1 for this
mission, you won't believe how easy that makes it.
MISSION 11 - Into The Rat's Nest
All you have to do is get out of the sewer. You don't have to
kill the Agents in here either, but I suggest that you do,
unless you plan on failing a lot. You get the SP33 in here, so
use that and your K0D1 to take out the Agents and escape.
MISSION 12 - Escape From D.C.
Ahh, an easy mission again! Use the K0D1 to take out all of the
Agents in the city. You could use the SJ90, but the K0D1 is
your best bet. After you take out the Agents, look for the road
block from mission 3. Exit through there and you are off to
another annoying mission.
MISSION 13 - The Ice Queen
Now, you must kill all 21 Agents, find a Drug Round, and snipe
Hannah with it. The drug round is in a small room containing
boxes and on Initiate, I believe it has Lite Body Armor as
well. You have to do all of this before Hannah leaves The Farm,
or you lose. Also, if you kill Hannah you lose. Anyway, DO NOT
MISS WITH THE DRUG ROUND! I do not believe you can get another
[if you can confirm this, or you find that you can indeed get
another, contact me]. You can also drug Hannah before you kill
the agents, if you wish, but you only have four minutes to kill
them afterwards. You'll want to use the K0D1 on this mission as
well.
MISSION 14 - Overtime With Full Payback
Now, you have seven minutes to kill 25 Agents. It's not as hard
as it sounds though. Just stick to using the K0D1, and you
should be fine. And you won't die if you go in water, so feel
free to do so as you please. Use the K0D1 or SJ90. Again, the
K0D1 is the better choice. You could also use the SP33 if you
want to get in close, but that's usually not a good idea.
MISSION 15 - Sacking The Boss
Whoa. An easy mission for the last Initiate level. You have to
go to the switches [in the game, they have green crosshairs
around them. on the map they are the blue dots]. And you have
to avoid Kurtz while doing this. Do not kill him, you will
fail. After you do that, find one of those rooms that are
filled with monitors [the ones you got the access cards from in
Mission 6]. If you are on Initiate, your game ends here. Go to
a higher difficulty to continue. Otherwise, read on.
MISSION 16 - Crashing The After Party
Easiest. Mission. Evar. You have to kill 15 of the 16 enemies.
You should just stick to the K0D1. It will make your life
easier, because it can kill in one hit. If you die at this
mission, you may want to seek mental help; the enemies have
only KH Suppressed Pistols and MZ5's.[well on Graduate,
Initiate and Trainee at least]. Plus, you get a K0D1. How much
easier could they make this mission?
MISSION 17 - Is Someone There?
This could be a difficult mission, but you shouldn't have too
much trouble with it if you finished Overtime At Langley and
Fugitive without too many problems. You have to plant 3 bombs,
then make it to the exit. The reason that this is difficult is
because of the fact that you cannot use non-stealth weapons.
Which means that half of your arsenal is now useless. But
luckily for you, the K0D1 is a stealth weapon. Use that and
the KH Suppressed Pistol.
MISSION 18 - Downfall Of The Empire
If you thought that Fugitive was a kick in the ass, wait till
you try this one. You will get blown to hell by snipers with
SJ09's if you aren't careful. Use the Night Vision Goggles to
make your way to the Access Card, then use it on the locked
door. Now, you'll have to get to the elevator. There is a
rocket sniper in here that everyone always seems to miss on
their first try, so move to the other side of the room as fast
as you can. Get in the elevator and go down to the final part
of the game. You have to collect 3 laptops and make it to the
exit. And you have to do it before the time expires. Once
you've done that, congradulations on finishing one of the best
GBA shooters ever. Now, try beating Veteran [without using the
codes!]
