Freezy Flake Galaxy - Bowser on Ice

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!

I love the music here! It sounds like a remix of the trailer theme and Brazzle Dazzle Day. It isn't very wintery, but it still sounds good. We land on a snow covered planet near a small cabin. There is a Star Bunny inside the cabin. He says the snow sculptures scare him and he won't leave his cabin. There are 2 large Goomba snow sculptures on the planet and a Fire Flower on the cabin porch. I know what we can do with this-torch the ice sculptures. This game gives us a few times to indulge our inner pyro. We use fireballs on the Goomba sculptures. The one on the same side as the cabin gives us Star Bits and the one on the underside releases a Launch Star. Both sculptures disintegrate, leaving one giant snowball each.

We launch to the next planet, where there are more Goomba sculptures as well as a Bowser sculpture. If we slide down the hill to the right of the highest tree, we get some Star Bits and a 1-up. We also get a 1-up from a die. We use the fireballs to take out the trees- which reveal blocks. We use fireballs on the Bowser sculpture and predictably, he goes down in 3 hits. The sculpture appears to hold up a hand in pain after the first hit, and his head falls off after the second. Doing so reveals the midgate and a slide. Mario goes down the slide sitting down like a normal person.

We land on another snow-covered planet. This one has a pile of cubes in its center. I take a hit from one of the Ice Demons present. Underneath one of the cubes, I can see the Comet Medal. We walk around to find a Fire Flower so we can destroy these cubes. Some of them are made of brick and won't be destroyed. However, ones made of ice can be taken out, but ice cubes above them will fall. I was crushed by one of them.

Take 2- I used the Fire Flower to get the Comet Medal. Destroying more ice cubes reveals a very tall green pipe. We warp to a lava covered planet with patches of snow. Somehow, lava and ice can coexist here. In the center is a giant snow sculpture of Bowser. We trigger the midgate and try rolling a snowball around. It's not that easy due to the small size of the ice patches. We can push the snowballs into the lava to form temporary bridges to other snow patches. We free a Star Bunny from a crate who says to roll the snowball around to make it bigger. I take a couple fo hits from falling in the lava. I ran out of coins to heal myself, so instead of exploring further, I used a Fire Flower to destroy the much larger Bowser sculpture, who falls in the same way, but gives us a Star.

Star Get #29, 10 Comet Medals, 978 Star Bits, 743 Coins, 9 Lives

A Comet appears around Cloudy Court. With 28 Stars, we can take a Warp Pipe to last galaxy in this "world".
