Fireboy and Watergirl 3 In the Ice Temple is a browser puzzle game where you control two characters at once. The standout mechanic here is the light beams, which are shot from mirrors and must be aimed to open new paths.

You control Fireboy with the arrow keys and Watergirl with the WASD keys. You must press buttons, push levers, and jump across platforms so both characters reach their respective exit doors. Fireboy walks through lava but dies in water, while Watergirl does the opposite, so you cannot swap their paths. Every move requires planning: one character holds a button while the other runs to the elevator.

This game is great for puzzle fans who enjoy local co-op or anyone willing to share a keyboard. Tip: grab all gems of the matching color first, as they directly determine your final level rating.
