Frozen Wario (known as Ice Skatin' Wario in Wario Land 3) is one of Wario's many transformations in the Wario Land series of games. When in contact with the breath of a Yukimaru, Brrr Bear, or Yeti, Wario immediately becomes frozen solid and sent skimming backwards, until he hits a wall. Although a usual inconvenience, he can slide through spikes and other obstacles. In Wario Land 3, the form is specifically necessary for getting past a Prince Froggy in A Town in Chaos. In Wario Land 4, the transformation is mainly of little use to the player and it is used more as a form of annoyance, or to waste time when the switch is hit. They are mainly seen in the levels 40 Below Fridge and Fiery Cavern. Unlike his other transformations, Frozen Wario cannot be controlled.

Trivia

  • The official Japanese archive for Wario Land 3 and games' manual lists Ice Skatin' Wario as a new ability, when it was previously seen in Wario Land II. However, this may be because it did not originally have artwork in Wario Land II.
