The Dark Ice & the Shadowy Stage is a level in Princess Peach: Showtime!, and is the 3rd and last level where Peach uses the Figure Skater Peach transformation.
Layout
The level starts out with Peach in her Figure Skater transformation, skating rightwards and up towards an ice rink where 7 Sour Bunch members must be defeated.
Once Peach has passed through the resulting portal, she finds herself in a third bout with the Sour Bunch Figure Skater, this time under different rules than in the previous two bouts: Sour Bunch Figure Skater will spawn falling large icicles that Peach must avoid, in order for her to spin him around, and free the Figure Skater Sparkla.
As a result of the icicles that fell during the bout, all the other icicles in the level are beginning to fall down too, leading to Peach and Figure Skater Sparkla having to flee from the icicles together.
On the advice of Figure Skater Sparkla, the escape section relies heavily on yellow spin jump snowflakes, to jump up to and across both tall and long obstacles, before escaping to safety.
Sparkle Gems
- Defeat the 7 Sour Bunch members in the initial skate rink.
- A basement pose platform is found on a platform on the left, immediately before the portal after the initial skate rink. Peach must then succeed at matching the 5 snowflakes.
- Collect 8 Sparkle Gem fragments during a chicane part of the escape section.
- On high ground before the ending sequence. Figure Skater Peach must backtrack a little bit to reach the Sparkle Gem.
- Finish the show.
Ribboner
After the initial skate rink, if the right sidepath is taken before heading into the front portal, he will be found laying down with 2 Sour Bunch skaters circling him. He awards the Multicolored Figure Skater Ribbon after being rescued.
- Help message: "Everything's spinning!"
- Rescue message: "Quite the dizzying spin you've got there!"
Ninja Theet
Towards the end, right before the last jumps on the crumbling floors, a Ninja Theet awaits.
