Ice Mario

Ice Mario is a form that Mario takes on in Super Mario Galaxy when he grabs an Ice Flower. When granted this form, any water or lava you touch freezes solid in the form of a hexagonal platform (These platforms melt after a period of time if left unoccupied). This allows Mario to walk or skate across vast distances of water or lava with ease and safety. Ice Mario can also freeze water spouts and waterfalls, which usually grant him passage to higher areas. Like Fire Mario, this power-up has a time limit.

This power-up is introduced in the Freezeflame Galaxy, but can also be found in other galaxies throughout the game.

Trivia

 * The music played during the duration of this power up closely resembles the music played for Fire Mario, but is different enough to sound like another song.
