| Cold water in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and its remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' (the latter where it is known under its current name) appears in two forms in [[Snowman's Land]]. Touching the first type of water takes away three wedges from a player character's [[Health Meter|health]] (or four and a half wedges if Mario, [[Luigi]], or [[Wario]] has no [[cap]]) and bounces away, in a similar manner to [[lava]]. Cold water is found only in a large pool underneath the [[Chill Bully]]'s platform, and in the [[Chief Chilly]] battle inside [[Chief Chilly Challenge]] in the remake. When pushed off, the Chill Bully will melt in the cold water and be defeated. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', Wario is able to withstand this cold water with his [[Metal Mario|metal]] power-up. When walking on this water, he will move as if he is in [[quicksand]]. The second type makes up the freezing pond and acts much like regular water; unlike in regular water, however, this water is so cold that the player will begin to lose a wedge of their Health Meter for about every three seconds they are in it, and will not recover health automatically. If the player loses their last piece of health in the freezing pond, the drowning animation is still used. Also, the low health alarm will be heard when the player has one or two wedges left. In ''Super Mario 64'', if mods are used to fill [[Cool, Cool Mountain]] and [[Over the Rainbows|Wing Mario Over the Rainbow]] with water (due to their being "cold" courses and Mario's shivering in his idle animation in these courses), the water would be programmed to be freezing by default.<ref>{{cite|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rq5I5hZBKSE&t=1502s|timestamp=25:02|title=Is it Possible to Beat Super Mario 64 if All Levels are Flooded with Water?|author=SwankyBox|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=May 22, 2024|language=en}}</ref>

| Freezing water in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' can be swum in, like with regular water, but if [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] stays in it for too long, they will lose one slice of their [[Health Meter]]. Therefore, to traverse it, an [[Ice Flower]] is required. When jumping into this water, the screen will "tingle" for a split-second. Freezing water appears in [[Freezeflame Galaxy]].
| |

|
| There is an exploit that allows Mario or Luigi to traverse freezing water without using an Ice Flower or taking damage over time. Usually, Mario or Luigi cannot jump in water unless they are next to land. However, a second player utilizing the [[Star Pointer]] can make Mario or Luigi jump, even if they are in water. Jumping out of the freezing water cancels the internal timer for taking damage in freezing water. This means that if the second player makes Mario or Luigi jump consecutively within around 2 seconds of each jump, Mario or Luigi will safely be able to swim across freezing water.

| | There is a exploit that allows Mario or Luigi to traverse freezing water without using an Ice Flower or taking damage over time. Usually, Mario or Luigi cannot jump in water unless they are next to land. However, a second player utilizing the [[Star Cursor]] can make Mario or Luigi jump, even if they are in water. Jumping out of the freezing water immediately cancels the code for taking damage in water. This means that if the second player makes Mario or Luigi jump consecutively within around 2 seconds of each jump, Mario or Luigi will safely be able to swim across freezing water. |

| Freezing water in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' appears mainly throughout the [[Snow Kingdom]], as well as a bonus area in the [[Sand Kingdom]]. Here, the same ticking sound that [[Bob-omb]]s make in more recent games plays when Mario is in it. If Mario swims in freezing water, the screen will gradually become covered with frost, and if he stays in too long, he will take damage. However, he can avoid taking damage from the freezing water by [[capture|capturing]] one of the kingdom's [[Cheep Cheep#Super Mario Odyssey|purple Cheep Cheeps]]. [[Gushen]]s can also travel safely across freezing water. One area of the [[Darker Side]] course also features a moving block of freezing water, through which Mario must swim in as little time as possible to avoid a set of [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]]. | | Freezing water can be found primarily throughout the [[Snow Kingdom]], as well as a bonus area in the [[Sand Kingdom]] in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.

| |
| In ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', freezing water appears throughout the level [[Seashore War]]. If the [[Kong]]s fall into a body of freezing water, they are flung back to dry land with one [[Heart (item)|heart]] from their health meter depleted.
