## Intro cutscene

Mrs. Brown calls the police to report her missing son. The police officer reassures her but tells her that more children have gone missing over the last few weeks and they are searching for the culprit. When questioned about whether she had noticed anything suspicious over the past few weeks, she replies that she had heard "a strange ice cream man's melody" and the police officer asks her to go into greater detail. Then we see the four kids (J. Brown, Lis Owens, Mike Carter and Charlie Owens) trying to hold the door to stop Rod from getting into the control room and capturing them. After that, we take control of J. and try to find a way out. J. discovers a hidden ventilation duct under the sofa, uncovers it and opens it with the crowbar. Then, the cutscene continues and all the kids escape, just in time. Rod breaks down the door, thinking that he finally caught them, but then realizes that they had gotten away again and gets really angry. He then activates the security system, saying that he wasn't planning on resulting to that. We see the factory entering a lockdown, with Sister Madeline having narrowly gotten in the outside area when a big wall with spikes was raised behind her. We then see all the friends in the van, with Mike telling the rest of them that the factory security system was activated and there were three generators supplying power to it and if they could disable them, then the security system would be deactivated and they could all escape the factory "once and for all". The introduction cutscene ends with all the friends agreeing to stick to the plan and saying "Let's go!".

## Walkthrough

This walkthrough assumes that you will tackle the generators in the following order (Museum, Laboratory, Joseph's Cottage) but it doesn't have any effects on your gameplay, other than the order in which you acquire the weapons, in every chapter, you will be plying as one of the kids.

### Museum :

In this chapter you will be playing as Lis, Firstly, if available, you should get the Rod Gun (only if you have pre-registered) and exit the van (which acts as a safe room). Go under the stairs and you will discover a vent. Open the cover and go outside, but, be careful! Sister Madeline will be on your left side and will immediately see you. Your screen will shake, the new chase music of Sister Madeline will start playing, and she will start walking towards you. If you are playing for the first time, or if you have started a new game, a cutscene will play before that, introducing the player to Sister Madeline. You should go to the stairs in front of you, but pay attention to the crocodile and don't go too close to the river. Continue forward until you find the electricity meter yard from Ice Scream 5 on your right. Turn right and go in the last "compartment" on the left side. There you should find a vent. Enter it and you will find yourself in the Hydroelectric Power Plant. Again, if it's the first time you are playing, another cutscene will play, where you will see Franken-Boris getting repaired and waking up. He will notice Lis and get angry at her and start chasing her. From now on you should watch out for Boris. He is your main enemy and regardless of whether you are in his vision field or not, he will still come towards you. The

Mechanic Mini Rods are there too, but the only real threat that they pose to you is the fact that if they stun you and Boris is near, he might catch you before you recover from the stun. Once you exit the room that you are in, dodge Boris and go to the open door at the far end of the power plant. Enter that room and you should see another door that connects this area to the factory's museum. On your right you will see a shutter closed and a piece of carton that seals an opening marked as "Gap". Enter it and Lis will inform the rest about the location of the generator and they will all come there. This is the factory's gift shop and acts as a safe room. All of your weapons will be carried there. Now, you can start plotting to destroy the generator, and Franken-Boris!

### Laboratory:

In this chapter you will play as Charlie, after finishing at the generator in the museum, Firstly select the destination on the map and go to the laboratory, exit the hydroelectric power plant through the ventilation then go up the construction stairs to enter the kitchen of Ice Scream 6, but when you enter In the kitchen you have to be careful! with a big kitchen robot named Mati because if she sees you she will throw ice cream balls at you and you will be stunned,If you have just started new game or have just started the game you will get a cutscene that will play before that, which introduces the player to Mati who is tasting ice cream. You have to sneak away from him to enter the Loading area but be careful with the Cook Mini Rod and Janitor Mini Rod because if they see you they will stun you with their electricity! And the most dangerous thing is that Rod is in this location, and If he catches you then he will hold you and you only have a few minutes to get away from him before being frozen by him, but if he catches you a second time you can't escape because you are tired and as a result you will be frozen so don't get caught!, o u have to sneak past them all and climb the stairs in the elevator in the Loading Area and the stairs will take you to the Laboratory from Ice Scream 7 , after that you also have to be careful with other dangers, namely Scientist Mini Rods which will stun you if they see you!, and try to stay quiet because Rod could come into the laboratory and chase you, after that enter the door to the Mini Rod manufacturing room and you will see a closed lid and a piece of cardboard covering the opening marked "Gap". After that, go in and Charlie will inform the others of the location of the generator and they will all come there, this is the Mini Rod making room in the laboratory and functions as a safe room, and all your weapons will be taken there. Now you can start planning to hack the generator system in the laboratory!

### Joseph's Cottage:

In this chapter you will play as Mike, Firstly you have to choose a destination on the map and go to Joseph's cottage. After that, leave the lab and exit through the window in the kitchen, after exiting through the kitchen window, you just have to go down the construction ladder, but be careful because outside is just as dangerous as inside, like Sister Madeline and Rod's Crocodile who will chase you. If Sister Madeline catches you she will hold you for a few seconds similar to Rod, or if you're tired/playing on Hard mode, you can't struggle and get caught. Exercise caution around the crocodile's nest because she can bite you with one bite which will kill you, after that go to Joseph's cottage and you will find a red door with a label on top named "Sullivan". Enter the cottage, and the generator is in the middle of the entire room. Mike will tell his friends the location of the generator so they arrive, after that you plan to turn off the generator in this Cottage. Firstly, you'll collect 3 eggs: One sitting on any tree stump, one located in any Water Closet(old-fashioned name for bathroom)shack, and one that Lis already has in her hand. Interact with her to claim it. Carefully place the eggs without being bitten by Rod's Crocodile one by one, then leave as it approaches. Near the garage vent which the player emerged from, go to a dead tree stick with a Forest Key attached to it. This takes a little over 10 seconds, so be careful and stun Sister Madeline beforehand. Use the Forest Key to open the Forest, but then find a way to open the Garage. Go back to the Cottage and leave, or look at the display case, as it is empty compared to before. Go back to the metal concrete pathway where J. will have moved, and interact to receive the Frosty Rifle from him. He says he found the Frosty Rifle in the display case, but Mike can take it so J. will go back to the cabin. Use the Frosty Rifle to shoot the Garage Door mechanism in the garage, then interact with the van passenger door to begin the Forest Minigame.

* **Forest Minigame:** Mike will drive the van over the bridge to the entrance of the Forest, while he asks Charlie to get in position by climbing the shed next to said entrance. Charlie climbs up the rocks, then the roof, and jumps to the Van with Rod's new invention being a seat with a Frosty Cannon. The game will load the forest. Mike will drive by each point of the Towers that power the generator when the van occasionally breaks down. He tells Charlie to take this time and destroy its weak points when he repairs the van, while avoiding lumberjack Mini Rods that will damage the van by shooting them. There are 5 points of the entire forest the van will visit.
* Depending on the game mode played on, the cannon will have either 6 or more than 6 ammunition. Once the last pellet in the ammunition supply runs out, it will take a few seconds or more to reload. If a Mini Rod damages the van, Mike will say that the Mini Rods have damaged the vans badly and will have to pull the van back to repair it. This restarts the minigame, and the player will start from the first point all over again.
* Once all the points of the tower have been visited and all weak spots are destroyed, the van will emerge back into the entrance with the broken tower falling down. Charlie says this was a lot of fun, and that Mike was a good driver. He says they should try this next time, and Joseph's Cottage generator powers down.

### Van Escape:

After all 3 generators are disabled or destroyed, the mechanical barrier and gates will retract from the exit, allowing the kids to use Rod's van to escape the factory. Driving past the security kiosk's barrier, Rod's invention falls off the van and breaks, while Mike, who is driving, reverses the car and drives the other way. J. says they all managed to get out together. Charlie shares his excitement, asking Mike if it's a dream. Mike replies to not distract him if they want to get home in one piece. Lis compliments his bravery, and asks what he wanted to tell her earlier, referring to Mike's crush on Lis. Mike explains this isn't a good time, but J and Charlie tease him that it would be a good time for a hug/kiss, and laugh. Lis asks what they're talking about, but Mike is frustrated and yells that the van will stop right then and there, so they all can walk home. Lis says she prefers to walk, but Mike corrects his mistake and says she might have misconstrued his statement. That is when J warns Mike to swerve, or they will hit a tree, which they do. We hear a wood breaking sound, which renders the van inoperable, after crashing. Mike asks if everyone's okay, and J replies with a tone. Charlie says now they really have to walk, while Lis begins to cry.

* This is considered an "okay" ending, as the kids escape, but crash, and Lis begins to cry.

### Aftercredits Cutscene:

Rod wakes up from an apparent nap, maskless(although the camera doesn't show his face). He asks what is going on to himself, and puts his Frosty head on. We can see his neck a little bit, which means Rod may unequip his mask in the True Ending. Getting up from his sleep, Rod walks to the computer monitor and realizes in shock that the chubby kids he captured have deactivated the generators and escaped the factory. Then, Rod says he still at least has the rest of the chubby kids in the Extraction Room. To both Rod and the Player's shock, he notices the Extraction Room door is open, to which he says this must've happened when the generators were deactivated. Rod says he maybe should pay a visit to close that door before the room becomes distempered(meaning the secret formula will lose its value), and his chubby kid pantry is spoiled. Then, Rod walks to the door, allowing the camera to peel back and show the room: Rod's bed, a stair railing, some boxes and a bookshelf in the back, but most importantly, a workshop table with an identical, albeit reverse version of Rod's Frosty head, with some wires connected. The camera fades to black, with one last maniacal laugh.

* This may be a room explored in the True Ending update.
* Rod's room looks completely inaccessible, but it is theorized he occupies the room on the very top floor of the factory, by means of his garage elevator.
* The reverse Frosty head will most likely be an important item used, perhaps to fool Sister Madeline.
* While Rod is throwing a tantrum, behind him are 2 picture frames: One of him and Joseph together, and the other of a newspaper article with the headlines "Where Is This Man?" with a subheading: "Daniel Williams missing since last week". This may be the security guard missing from Ice Scream 8, although not confirmed yet. It is unknown why Rod frames this newspaper, perhaps due to some embittered revenge.

## Trivia

* According to the Keplerians' sneak peek about Ice Scream 8, they said that Ice Scream 8 would be released in 2023.
* In one of the Ice Scream 8 title choices(An old YouTube community poll), it says "Revenge," indicating that there could be revenge from Sister Madeline and Rod or even the children. If the word revenge is applied to Rod, it might mean that Sister Madeline will get revenge on J possibly because J's father is the player from Evil Nun 1/ENTBM who freed the Laundry children. If the word revenge is aimed at Rod, it could be that he already knows the cause of Joseph's death and will take revenge on Sister Madeline. If the word revenge refers to children, it could be that J and his friends have a plan for revenge, namely killing Rod and Sister Madeline, or reporting them both to the police, and if the murder option is carried out, it is certain that Ice Scream 8 will be the first Ice Scream game that has bloody elements and is not suitable for children.
* This is the first and only Ice Scream game to change its logo.
* Sister Madeline's eyes in the promotional picture glow the same red as in Evil Nun: The Broken Mask.
* In an Ice Scream 3 minor update, where a letter written by Rod at the Stall was added, it is written that Rod's crocodile has laid eggs and Rod will move the Crocodile and its eggs to his factory, which showed that Rod might have brought his crocodile to the factory by this game, many believed without being hesitant, and they apparently turned out correct.
* If you are caught by Sister Madeline twice, she proceeds to bury you with a shovel in the ground outside the factory. The game over screen states that Sister Madeline has caught you and your ending couldn't have been any worse. It seems that Sister Madeline will stop at nothing to reunite with Rod. This game over ending is very similar to Evil Nun 2's game over, but mostly disturbing being seen in the Ice Scream franchise.
* Ice Scream 8 has the most impactful ending of the Ice Scream franchise.
* This game will be the last of the Ice Scream franchise.
* On November 11, 2023, Keplerians lowered the number of pre-registrations needed for each reward by 500 thousand probably due to them wanting everyone to get more cool rewards.
* On November 17, 2023, we unlocked a new trap skin.
* On November 24, 2023, in the Keplerians' latest sneak peek at Ice Scream 8 Friday, there is gameplay that shows the location of the crocodile pool, and there is also a post behind Rod's and Joseph's house.
* On December 8, 2023, we unlocked skins for kids in the pre-registration number of 1.5 M.
* On December 14, 2023, we are given a bonus by Keplerians, namely by getting the Sleepy Rod skin even though it doesn't reach 2 M.
* After the ending there is a post credits scene explaining that Rod put more chubby kids in the extraction room and squeezed them.
* Here it is revealed that J's dog's name is Chloe.
* In the normal ending, Sister Madeline doesn't go inside the factory, and doesn't meet up with Rod. However, we will most likely see the two meet each other in a possible future update, which is an update that is coming out soon.
* This is the first Keplerians game that had the protagonists/Characters actually talk to one another and share lore and expirence.
