It can freeze the central floating platform and the two lower platforms above the bottom pipes. If all three platforms are frozen, no more Freezies appear for that phase. Hitting a Freezie from below destroys it and awards the player five hundred points. Freezies do not count as regular enemies, meaning Mario and Luigi do not have to clear them from the stage to complete the level. If Mario or Luigi touch a Freezie, they lose a life; unlike most enemies, Freezies only reverse direction if they bump into another enemy, which is the only way they can reach and freeze the upper platforms.

Freezies are used as items in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series, starting with ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. In these games, they have a wider, more rounded design than in the ''Super Mario'' games. When a Freezie appears, it slides across the stage until it is picked up by a character, falls off the stage, or is broken. Freezies in ''Melee'' break after a single attack is used on them, provided the attack does damage, while the ones in ''Brawl'' are a bit more resilient.

Freezies in ''Melee'' break after a single attack is used on them, provided the attack does damage, while the ones in ''Brawl'' are a bit more resilient.


Upon being picked up, the Freezie can then be thrown at an opponent, encasing the opponent in a block of ice. While frozen, the opponent is defenseless for a few seconds, allowing other characters to attack the incapacitated foe. The larger the opponent's damage, the longer they are trapped. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', a Freezie that hits an opponent makes the same sound effect as a defeated Freezie in ''Mario Bros.''. If an opponent is knocked-out by a thrown Freezie in ''Melee'', the player receives a "Freezie KO" Bonus. Additionally, the Freezie appears as a collectible [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]].
