The Ice Block are recurring Objects in The Legend of Zelda series.[name reference needed][1] Ice Blocks go unnamed in The Minish Cap.
Location and Uses[]
Ocarina of Time[]
Ice Blocks appear in the Ice Cavern and Ganon's Castle in Ocarina of Time. They can be pushed around and climbed on in order to reach elevated areas. Ice Blocks cannot be destroyed, though they can be pushed into bottomless pits.
Majora's Mask[]
Blue Chuchus can be frozen with Ice Arrows to form Ice Blocks in Majora's Mask. These Ice Blocks can then be climbed in order to reach elevated areas. After a period of time, the Ice Blocks will defrost and return to being Blue Chuchus.
Oracle of Seasons[]
Ice Blocks appear in the Sword & Shield Maze in Oracle of Seasons.
Twilight Princess[]
Ice Blocks appear in caves and in the Snowpeak Ruins in Twilight Princess. Unlike other iterations, these Ice Blocks contain actual Blocks within them. They cannot be melted.
The Minish Cap[]
Ice Blocks appear in the Temple of Droplets in The Minish Cap. They can be pushed, sliding along Ice until they strike another surface; the Temple of Droplets utilizes this mechanic in several puzzles where Link must use Ice Blocks to press down Floor Switches or push them out of the way to clear a path. Special Ice Blocks known as Key-sicles contain Small Keys and the Big Key for the Temple of Droplets; they can be melted with Light Beams.
