It's funny how hot and cold World 6 is in its reception. The first half of this world pales in comparison to the latter half, where it seems like the difficulty starts to get in the backseat after riding shotgun and aiming one at you. Levels aren't nearly as bad and by this point, you should be used to the troublesome difficulty and icy physics. Furthermore, you learn that not ALL levels are filled with the snowy stuff. But when it is, tread carefully as always. If there's anything you WANT to have on hand, it's definitely some firepower. Otherwise, you'll not only miss out on coins, but something even bigger and better. Fortunately, there's a number of chances you can snatch one in the icy cavern and on the level where you REALLY need it.
Once you've taken the LAST of the Boom Booms down (why are there three of them?), Lemmy awaits you in his dangerous doomship that seems like it's not entirely one piece. The koopaling himself might be a bit of a problem, but it's all up to how you handle the bouncing balls. Before long, you can finally be done with this frozen heckscape...
Then you realize that you're playing SMB3 on a GBA and World 7's theme plays...
