Ice Blocks are rare objects that can be found in ''[[Wario Land II]]''. They appear as small translucent blocks, and are very fragile. Ice Blocks can be picked up and used as a throwing weapon to defeat or stun enemies or to break [[Enemy Block]]s. If the Ice Block falls to the ground or is attacked, it shatters. However, the ice block will respawn if the player walks away from it and then returns.

They are first encountered in a level called [[Defeat Four Ducks!]]. It is deployed in various rooms throughout [[Syrup Castle]] and can be used to progress through the fortress. The player needs to use the Ice Blocks to knock down one of the four [[D.D.]]s from an unreachable location, and to smash through a staple of Enemy Blocks.

===''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' (Nintendo Switch)===
In the [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nintendo Switch)|remake]] of ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', Ice Blocks first appear in [[Slippery Summit]]. Like most appearance, they affect Mario's traction, although they also affect [[Shy Guy]]s. They are differentiated from semisolid iced floors.
[[File:MarioVsDKSwitch6-1_1.jpg|thumb|right|Various Ice Blocks in the first level of [[Slippery Summit]]]]
In the [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Reissue|remake]] of ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nintendo Switch)|Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', Ice Blocks appear alongside semisolid variants as part of various terrain in [[Slippery Summit]] and its corresponding [[Slippery Summit Plus|plus world]]. A slippery traction is applied to players and [[Mini-Mario]]s as they walk over ice blocks, and [[Shy Guy]]s appear to walk with slippery traction on top of them. Thrown objects can continuously slide across ice blocks before hitting a wall and stopping.
 
If a player jumps while on an Ice Block, they will perform a spinning animation similar to when jumping off icy terrain in 3D games like ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. The player can also duck while sliding across Ice Blocks, allowing them to slide underneath small gaps. Slippery traction can be cancelled by performing a [[Handstand]], but the player will still gain slippery traction if performing a Handstand Walk.
