Browser Game Pick: Avalancher (Sinister Sea)
Avalancher is a strategy game involving lots of snow and a fearless eskimo. Players are invited to choose a spot for our freezing hero and then given the chance to build a small igloo around him before unleashing the avalanche.
Of course the game follows the recent trend of 'physics is cool', so expect the little guy to go a-tumbling about when the snow hits. It all starts off pretty simple but soon gets rather challenging. Cliff edges, lack of igloo pieces and harshly-placed trees will surely hinder your progress and cause our woolly-coated one numerous deaths.
Take to the mountains over at Sinister Sea.

Not bad, I guess... I got in 12th place after I submitted my scores (it took a lot of tries on a couple levels in order to figure out how to not get hurt to get that +250)

Put your eskimo near the edge and then put ice blocks on both sides. The trees will slow down the rocks and your igloo will stop the trees. I managed to get 3750 doing this.
I’ve got a total of 31840 so far, but I'm struggling to improve on Lovers Leap (scored 2040) if anyone has got any tips!

This game is a great little game. Overall I thought it was a great time waster and was mostly enjoyable. Some of the levels felt like they were more dependent on luck than skill.
