Here is a fun little Christmas map for your holiday amusement. The Ice Castle is home to crystals that produce Christmas spirit. The terrorists are bent on destroying the crystals and ruining Christmas for everyone.

Here are a few hints and tips for navigating your way around the map:
  • The dual speed track is just like the Slideracer maps. The snowmen, bombs and Santa Furby will instakill you so be careful!
  • To control the track speed, shoot the corresponding targets over the track.
  • The Castle contains speed tubes that let you quickly go up, down or side to side. Follow the arrows for the proper direction.
  • There are also arrow ramps on the roof that let you long jump from one roof to the other. Make sure you jump at the very edge or you will miss the other side. Cross jump at your own peril.
  • There are 3 bomb sites. Site A is at the Christmas tree immediately below CT spawn. Site B is on the roof at CT spawn. Site C is located on the balcony overlooking the massive power cube in the Castle opposite CT spawn.
Strategy:
Terrorists
- If you have the bomb, try not to die on the track. It is really difficult for your teammates to locate and pick up the bomb when moving at high speed.
- With three bomb sites to choose from, try to get a jump on the CTs by finding the site they?re not defending.

Counter Terrorists
- Cover all bomb sites and get to them quickly. CTs have the advantage of getting to any bomb site faster than the Ts. It is essential to have your teammates get in position quickly to defend each bomb site and signal where the bomb is going.
- Determine where the sites are located and the fastest way to get to them. Knowing the fastest way from site to site is really important!

A great novelty map! The castle is crafted well although I did find it hard to navigate my way around at times. The killer snowmen add an extra challenge and the track makes for fast paced gameplay. 4 stars.
