Cold, cold, ''cold'' as Alaska and the Yukon put together. Thankfully, you ''usually'' won't freeze to death.

Contrast [[Lethal Lava Land]].If they're in the same level, you have just reached [[Hailfire Peaks]].
{{examples|Examples:}}
 
* ''[[Ancient Domains of Mystery]]'' has one near the end of the game, and it's too slippery to use spiked boots. {{spoiler|Throw the tons of [[Clingy MacGuffin|Clingy MacGuffins]] to get past. The gods will also reward you if you use a Potion of Uselessness for this purpose.}}
Line 152:
** Spyro 2 and 3 had areas with ice that you could slip and slide around on. A good portion of them had ice skating and hockey as minigames.
*** Spyro 2 had Crystal Glacier, and Spyro 3 had Icy Peak.
** Dante's Freezer in ''[[Continuity Reboot|The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning]]'' is, as [[The Obi -Wan|Ignitus]] describes it, "a desolate arctic expanse that's littered with the machinery of war... soldiers and weapons frozen forever in the posture of destruction."
** [[Older Than They Think|Ironically justified]] considering that in ''[[Divine Comedy|Dante's Inferno]]'', there actually ''is'' a certain circle of hell (Treachery) that's [[Snow Means Death|completely frozen over]].
* ''[[Jazz Jackrabbit (Video Game)|Jazz Jackrabbit]]'' has several levels with ice and low friction.
Line 164:
* ''[[Star Fox 64 (Video Game)|Star Fox 64]], [[Star Fox Assault (Video Game)|Assault]]'', and ''[[Star Fox Command (Video Game)|Command]]'' have Fichina.
** ''[[Star Fox Adventures (Video Game)|Star Fox Adventures]]'' has two cold areas: SnowHorn Wastes and part of DarkIce Mines. There's not a lot of slipperiness in the former (although the Krazoa Shrine accessible from there does have a slippery floor), but they do have places where ice blocks your way, and the water eats away at your health as long as you stay in it.
* ''[[Eternal Sonata]]'' has a slight version in the Sharp Mountains. No [[Elemental Rock -Paper -Scissors]] regarding the cold aspect, but there are certain paths that are sloped. You can get to the top if you keep going, but if you stop, you slide toward the bottom.
* The Brrrrrgh from ''[[Toontown Online]]''. Luckily, snow and ice don't affect gameplay unless you count fishing.
* ''[[Painkiller]]''. We still hate you, [[That One Level|Snowy Bridge!]]
Line 194:
** ''[[Okamiden (Video Game)|Okamiden]]'' has the Ice Room. It's basically the freezer for the imp chefs.
* One of the levels of ''[[Bujingai Swordmaster]]'' takes place on an ice mountain. You don't actually slip around, but for the first part of the level your life points are slowly drained by the demonic atmosphere and you can re-aquire them only by smashing ice cubes containing the health orbs.
* ''[[Bug! (Video Game)|Bug]]!'' has the Burr-ubs. An icy stage, there are surprisingly few slippery areas. Made up for by the annoying snow fleas, and platforming sections over a [[Bottomless Pit]]. The boss was an [[Bigfoot Sasquatch and Yeti|abominable snowbug]].
* The ''[[Wii Fit]]'' Advanced Obstacle Course is covered in ice, which makes it hard for your Mii to stop, and can send them careening off the edge of a platform or into something that will smack them silly.
* The Tibetan levels in ''[[Uncharted 2]]'' fit this trope nicely, complete with Yeti type enemies.
