Snifberg the Unfeeling
- “Hey, you! In the parka! Send this Yoshi back to the Ice Age!”
- —Kamek, Yoshi's Woolly World
Snifberg the Unfeeling is a large Ice Snifit that appears in Yoshi's Woolly World as the boss of World 5 in the level Snifberg the Unfeeling's Castle. It was originally a normal Ice Snifit that Kamek had made giant. Collecting all of the Wonder Wool on that stage will unlock a Yoshi costume called "Snifberg the Yoshi". Snifberg the Unfeeling can be seen in the Scrapbook Theatre as enemy number 71 and also appears on the Boss Tent.
Snifberg the Unfeeling looks similar to its original Ice Snifit form, with the main difference being its large size. It is able to shoot regular Ice Snifits out of the nozzle on its mask. The mask itself is made of wood, while the rest of Snifberg the Unfeeling's body is made of wool. As Kamek mentions, Snifberg the Unfeeling is wearing a parka.
Battle
Once the battle initiates, Snifberg the Unfeeling spins in place while blowing ice, creating an ice barrier around itself. This ice barrier prevents Snifberg the Unfeeling from being jumped on or attacked directly. Snifberg the Unfeeling's first attack consists of creating an ice block, which it then kicks towards Yoshi. It will then spit out three Ice Snifits, one after the other. Afterwards, Snifberg the Unfeeling will create spikes on its ice barrier, then proceed to slam along the ground until the last turn, when it will fly up by spraying ice out of its nozzle and slam into the ground. Yoshi must hit Snifberg the Unfeeling three times in a row with a yarn ball, causing it to fall over onto ice spikes which break the ice barrier. Yoshi will then need to Ground Pound him.
Once hit, Snifberg the Unfeeling will fly into the background, remake its ice barrier and create Icy Spiked Balls, which appear two at a time and roll down towards Yoshi. Once finished, Snifberg the Unfeeling will jump down and create five more ice blocks, with two of them being taller than usual. It will then spit three Ice Snifits, this time all at the same time. Snifberg the Unfeeling will create spikes on its barrier once more, then fly up and slam onto the ground twice.
Once hit for the second time, Snifberg the Unfeeling will fly to the background, create another ice barrier and more Icy Spiked Balls, and finally jump to the foreground again. It will then create a stack of five ice blocks and four Icy Spiked Balls and kick them at Yoshi. Snifberg the Unfeeling will then spit five Ice Snifits at Yoshi, create spikes on its ice barrier and slam onto the ground three times. Once hit again, Snifberg the Unfeeling will be defeated.
