Template:Block Infobox Ice is a block created when it gets cold and snows on water.

Ice does not melt while carried in a Blockhead's Inventory or stored in a container.

Appearance

Ice is a translucent, seemingly white block. It will extend a back wall below it as normal, but only up to ten blocks deep when it forms naturally in water.

Effects

A Blockhead is able to run (or ride a donkey) across ice making it possible to cross oceans quickly without a boat. If a Blockhead sleeps on ice and it melts the Blockhead will immediately wake up.

Ice will despawn kelp growing where it forms. Fish tend to avoid forming ice, but may become trapped anyway and will eventually despawn if not freed. There are no reports of what happens to sharks or submerged Blockheads, but it's likely to be similar.

A fractionally filled block of water will freeze into a full block of ice, which can then melt into a full block of water.

It is recommended to mine ice with a pickaxe for best results. The multiplier of gem pickaxes has no effect.

Uses

While ice can be used for construction, its tendency to melt under warm conditions makes it impractical except under arctic conditions. It has no known use in crafting.

Ice can be used to transport water without using a bucket.

Because cycling between water and ice will refill partial water blocks, ice is part of one method of generating unlimited water (and therefore ice).
