The Freezy Flake Galaxy is a galaxy in the game Super Mario Galaxy 2. It is found in World 3, and its icon shows an off-scale version of the main part of the Snow Doll Koopa Planet. The boss of the galaxy is Sorbetti. There are Bowser and Goomba statues which Mario has to destroy with a Fire Flower or Rock Mushroom. He can get to this Galaxy by clearing the first mission of the Cloudy Court Galaxy or the Haunty Halls Galaxy; as such, Mario is bound to have at least 18 Power Stars in his possession by the time this Galaxy becomes available; completing the first mission allows him to get to the Haunty Halls Galaxy, unless the player got any Power Stars from there beforehand.

Appearance

It is a cold galaxy covered with ice, snow, and lava with Bowser and Goomba snow statues on its planets.

Missions

Bowser on Ice

The player starts next to a cottage on a small, disk-shaped planet. Using the Fire Flower power-up nearby, the player has to move to the underside of the planet and torch the Goomba sculpture with a fireball to reveal a Launch Star that will send the player to the next planet. On the Snow Doll Koopa Planet, the player needs to use another Fire Flower and run to the bottom of the hill to find a large Bowser sculpture. Hitting it with three fireballs will cause it to melt and reveal a tunnel that the player will slide down, leading to the next planet.

On the Snow Block Tico Search Planet, the player needs to use a Fire Flower to melt the large Brick Blocks made of snow to find a Warp Pipe that leads to the final planet. On the Lava Snow Ball Convey Planet, the player needs to kick a large snowball across a pool of lava to create a path of snow and reach the center of the planet with the large Bowser sculpture. Using a Fire Flower, the player needs to burn the Bowser sculpture three times to fully melt it and reveal the Power Star.

Sorbetti's Chilly Reception

The player starts next to a cottage on a disk-shaped planet. Using a Rock Mushroom power-up, the player has to move to the underside of the planet and destroy a Goomba ice sculpture by ramming into it, revealing a Launch Star to the next planet. On the Snow Doll Koopa Planet, the player has to use the Rock Mushroom power-up to break ice sculptures, trees, and crystals to find five Star Chips, one of which is located back at the top of the hill where the player started. Once all five Star Chips are collected, a Launch Star will appear to send the player to the White Out Planet. This planet is covered in an icy fog, limiting the player's vision. Taking a path to the right of the player's starting position, past the Warp Pipe, will lead to a slope ending at a Checkpoint Flag and a Launch Star. The Launch Star will send the player to an inanimate Sorbetti and using a Sling Star to reach its body planet will cause Sorbetti to wake up.

Sorbetti will begin rolling around the planet toward the player, though his course will be effected if it hits a snow stalagmite. In order to damage Sorbetti, the player has to spin at its large, red nose, and Sorbetti will begin rolling faster each time it is hit. Damaging Sorbetti three times will cause it to explode and release the Power Star.

The Chimp's Skating Challenge

The player must first make their way to the next planet and destroy one of the trees near the small frozen pond. If playing on the first mission, the player needs to burn the tree by using a Fire Flower. If playing on the second mission, the player needs to use a Rock Mushroom to ram into the tree. The tree will reveal a Warp Pipe which will take the player to a skating rink hosted by The Chimp. Talking to The Chimp will have him challenge the player to skate into the Gummits that pop out, but to avoid the spiked ones. Green Gummits are worth 10 points, whereas Gold Gummits are worth 50. The Gummits will remain above ground for a few seconds before burrowing back down. If the player can beat The Chimp's high score of 500 within a 30 second time limit, the Chimp will reward the player with the Power Star.

Green Star 1

The player will redo the Bowser on Ice mission. The first Green Star is located on the slide behind the first snow statue of Bowser on the Snow Doll Koopa Planet. The player must travel down the slide and position themselves upside-down inside of it to get be able to grab the Green Star.

Green Star 2

The player will redo the Bowser on Ice mission. This star is located above the lava in the Lava Snow Ball Convey Planet. The player has to perform a Long Jump to reach it. The player could also create a temporary path to the star with the snowballs.

Green Star 3

The player will redo the Sorbetti's Chilly Reception mission. The third Green Star is located on the White Out Planet. To get to it, the player must fall from the platform near the Star Bunny and land on the planet with the right timing.

Planets

Starting Planet (Snow Disk Planet)

This planet is a small, disk-shaped planet with a log cabin on the north side. On the south side is a Launch Star trapped in a snow sculpture of a Goomba. Mario must use a Power-up that he finds next to the log cabin to destroy the sculpture; in the first mission, the power-up is a Fire Flower, and Mario has to use his Fire form's Fireballs to melt the sculpture. The second mission has him become Rock Mario via a Rock Mushroom and transform into a boulder to smash the sculpture. The Launch Star leads to the Snow Doll Koopa Planet.

Snow Doll Koopa Planet

This planet is a large island covered in snow, with several snow sculptures. Item Crystals can be found throughout the planet, and Star Bunnies and Li'l Brrs inhabit the planet. There is also a slide leading to the Snow Block Tico Search Planet. During the first mission, a Bowser sculpture blocks the entrance, so Mario must burn it down. During the second mission, a snowdrift blocks the way, preventing access at all.

Subterranean Ice Rink

This area is where The Chimp has set up his first skating challenge, being accessed from a Warp Pipe hidden in one of the tree sculptures. The northern 2/3 is completely flat, covered in ice, and has a hole at the centre and eight more in a square formation around it; Gummits pop out of these holes, having to be rammed in order to complete the challenge. The southern 1/3 is a 3x6 rectanglar section made of stone brick tiles, with the left and right sides raised slightly.

Snow Block Tico Search Planet

This planet is a square island with a pile of bricks and ice blocks. Mario gets here in the first mission by sliding down a slide leading from the Snow Doll Koopa Planet, and has to use a Fire Flower to turn into Fire Mario and destroy enough blocks to access a Warp Pipe leading to the next area. The Comet Medal appears on this planet.

Lava Lake Planet

This island is covered in a lava lake with some snow-covered islands, including one at the centre which has a Bowser sculpture that Mario has to destroy with the Fire suit's Fireballs. If Mario rolls a snowball over the lava, he can create a bridge to cross the lava.

Snowstorm Maze Planet

This planet is stuck in a perpetual blizzard, so Mario has the range of his vision reduced. A Warp Pipe can be found, leading him to a secret area with three Chance Cubes for him to attack with a Star Spin. Another secret area appears near a Star Bunny that tells Mario about the blizzard, with three 1-Up Mushrooms and a Sling Star allowing him to climb back up. Mario must find his way through the maze to the Launch Star. Lumalee appears near this Launch Star, which lies at the bottom of a slope; if spoken to, she can provide an item for Mario to use in his upcoming fight against Sorbetti.

Spiky Snowball Planet

This is a small planet that Mario lands on after his departure from the Snowstorm Maze Planet; there is a Sling Star that he must use to get to the Snowman Body Planet.. The planet's appearance is similar to Sorbetti, though without eyes or a mouth, and with a small bump where the nose should be. When Mario heads to the Snowman Body Planet, Sorbetti tears his way out of the Spiky Snowball Planet to commence his fight.

Snowman Body Planet

This is where Mario and Sorbetti face off. The planet is a snow-covered, spherical planet that resembles the body of a snowman, with two trees serving as "arms." There are snow piles that can be destroyed with a Star Spin or if Sorbetti smashes them with his body weight.

Trivia

• This Galaxy's music is a Christmas-themed remix to the game's main theme.
• The snowstorm on the planet before Sorbetti's planet does not affect you and is purely there for aesthetic effect.
