'''Polar Plunge''' is a Flash sledding game from the [[Arcade]] of [[Webkinz]]. The instructions call it "the awesomest sledding mountain around" and ask the player to help a character named Inukshuk get as far down the mountain as possible.<ref name="game-0fee35bfb5">The game file <code>Polar Plunge/content/www.webkinz.com/SWF/ARCADE/GAMES/polarPlungeInstructions_hack.swf</code>, as kept in the Flashpoint Archive (Flashpoint Ultimate 14).</ref>

== How it is played ==
The up arrow jumps, the right arrow accelerates and the left arrow brakes; the higher on a ramp the sled is when it jumps, the higher it goes.<ref name="game-0fee35bfb5" /> More speed means more points for the descent, and is needed to jump several objects at once. Snowflakes give extra points.<ref name="game-0fee35bfb5" /> Hitting things slows the sled, hitting certain things ends the game, and the game is also over if the speed ever falls to zero.<ref name="game-0fee35bfb5" />

The game file holds ten names in the style of ski runs: Black Diamond, Polar Plummet, Ice Cream Float, Kewl Runnings, White Wonderland, Polar Plunge, Soft Landings, Bunny Bumps, Slippery Slopes and Sugar Puff Path.<ref name="game-12f38043b3">The game file <code>Polar Plunge/content/www.webkinz.com/SWF/ARCADE/GAMES/polarPlunge.swf</code>, as kept in the Flashpoint Archive (Flashpoint Ultimate 14).</ref><ref name="game-12f38043b3" /><ref name="game-12f38043b3" /> The readable text does not say what they label. One copy of the game, <code>polarPlunge_editor.swf</code>, also holds the words "LEVEL EDITOR", "Test Level" and "Load Level", words that belong to a tool for building levels; nothing in the files shows that players could reach it.<ref name="game-31444ce8b2">The game file <code>Polar Plunge/content/www.webkinz.com/SWF/ARCADE/GAMES/polarPlunge_editor.swf</code>, as kept in the Flashpoint Archive (Flashpoint Ultimate 14).</ref>

You are a Plunging Pro!" and "A surprise has been placed in your dock!".<ref name="game-31444ce8b2" /><ref name="game-31444ce8b2" /> See [[Trophies and prizes]].
