How to unlock the Duck and Cover achievement in Glacier Blast - Definitive Guide
First start a feud game until you get three healer tiles (the one with a plus sign).
Now, whenever a round begins, the partner account should match the healer tile (unlocking it) and, immediately, you have to match it. I say immediately because there are 2 AI players who can match it before you.
Do this three times, each healer tile should give you a protected life, and providing neither AI remove the protection of the tiles, you will get the achievement either at the start of the next round (Thanks TSG Dwaggie for the info) or at the exact time you get the third healer tile (Thanks jkmyoung).
1. What I did was wait to be the last to play and break the ice cube with the + sign. If someone has broken the cube 1st, get it as fast as possible.
2. If you broke the cube last make sure your the first to get that cube. Then just repeat from step 1.
So if you break the cube last, make sure you get it 1st.
If someone broke the cube 1st be then next to get it.
Only took a few games to pop and I just made sure that there was 5 + cubes in case of errors that might happen.
This achievement requires that you encase three of your colored tiles in ice simultaneously. To protect your colored tiles with ice, you must destroy a Healer Power Tile (looks like a medical cross). When you do this, one of your colored tiles will get glazed over with ice, protecting it from a single enemy attack. This achievement is much easier if boosted with another player in Feud mode, but is possible offline against the AI as well.
Load up the match. Look at the board to first make sure it has at least three Healer Power Tiles. If it doesn't, you might as well restart as you cannot get this achievement in that game. Once you have a game with three tiles, have your boosting partner destroy the ice casing on the first Healer Power Tile. Then immediately play your turn to destroy the tile. Repeat this step two more times. You also need to be cautious that the other players are not destroying the ice as you are forming it. You must have three ice coatings on your colored tiles active AT THE SAME TIME at the BEGINNING OF A ROUND.
