It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information.

Icicles (Japanese, ツララ tsurara) are pointy pieces of ice that have sometimes appeared in the Mario series.

They first appeared in Phase 16 (17 in Japan) of Mario Bros., as enemies that attacked by dropping from under the top platforms and pipes. Touching it while it is still a liquid droplet or using the POW Block will prevent the Icicle from being formed though this will not award any points. They reappear in Super Mario Bros. Special and Super Princess Peach, behaving the same way as they did in Mario Bros.

They also appear in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. They have the same attack as they did in Mario Bros., and whacking an egg at them would cause them to fall down from the ceiling. They would also hurt the player if they touched an icicle while it was still attached to the ceiling.

Wario has met icicles as well in Wario Land: Shake It!, in the level Slipshod Slopes. They appear in a cove part, and seem to be gigantic. When executing the Earthshake Punch, these big icicles will fall down, and crush any enemy underneath (defeating 5 enemies with those icicles is also a mission in that level). When Wario hits a falling icicle, he'll get hurt. Wario can also stand on those icicles as if they are platforms. However, the fallen icicles will break after a short time. when broken, new icicles will grow on the piece of ceiling the old ones were fallen off. There are giant icicles as well in Freezing Fields.

They are found in 3-3 and 3-Castle of New Super Mario Bros. Wii along with giant falling icicles that Mario can walk on. Icicles come in different sizes. When an icicle falls another one forms on unless it's a giant icicles. If the player gets hit by an icicle, it has the same effect as getting hit by a Goomba or a different enemy.
