Ice is a Block added in Update 0.8.0.

Obtaining[]

Ice spawns naturally in cold biomes; however, it cannot be obtained by breaking it with normal Tools. It can only be obtained by breaking it using a tool Enchanted with Silk Touch.

Usage[]

Ice allows the Player to walk faster on it, and the Player will slide if he/she stops moving. It converts into Water when broken/melted if there is a block beneath it, specifically stationary water.

Trivia[]

When broken, it makes the same sound as Glass.
Packed Ice is a non-meltable variant of Ice found only in Ice Spikes biomes, and is more translucent.
Ice will melt if any illuminating block is placed nearby, or if it is placed in a sunny biome.
Ice will melt in the Nether, but it will not release water.
Bedrock Exclusive: When a Carpet is placed on Ice and the Player drops an Item onto the Ice, it will still slide on top of the carpet above the ice.
As of Update 1.2, Ice is now transparent.
