Overview

Four Swords Adventures

Entrance to the Temple of Ice



Themes and Navigation

The Temple of Ice in Four Swords Adventures consists of slippery floor and many Holes. Two Puzzles in the dungeon involve throwing Bomb Flowers such that they slide on the icy floor and explode in the right place. The most commonly used item in the dungeon is the Fire Rod, which can melt the Ice Blocks scattered throughout many rooms. It has to be upgraded to Level 2 to create the Somarian Blocks that are needed to traverse the latter half of the dungeon. Namely, the Links must use the Somarian Blocks to activate the Switch Platforms needed to cross large gaps. At least one Somarian Block is needed to help the Links simulatenously depress five Foot Switches to open the Sealed Door to the Sub-Boss room. The Sub-Boss of the Temple of Ice is a pair of Ball and Chain Soldiers.

Entrance to the Temple of Ice



The Temple of Ice in Phantom Hourglass is located on the Isle of Frost.

Themes and Navigation

The Temple of Ice provides Link with quite a few challenges, many of which force Link to employ every possible trick with the Grappling Hook, the item found in the Dungeon. The Boss of the Temple of Ice is Gleeok, a two-headed Dragon.

The surface of the Temple of Ice, as the name may suggest, is a slick ice sheet surrounded by seemingly bottomless pits. The Grappling Hook helps Link speed through the hazards safely. The majority of puzzles in the Temple of Ice are Lever Switches to be pulled with the Grappling Hook.

The path to the Boss Key, as well as the room with the Grappling Hook are guarded by fearsome Yook.

Link can choose whether he completes the Temple of Ice before or after the Goron Temple and/or Mutoh's Temple.
