Welcome to the ultimate strategy guide for Freezy Peak, a mid-to-late round race in Fall Guys that tests your parkour skills, timing, and composure under pressure. Unlike some other rounds, Freezy Peak offers a decent degree of randomness in spawn points, making each attempt feel slightly different. While it’s not pure chaos, knowing what to expect and how to react is crucial to consistently placing high or even taking first place.

Let’s break down the level, from spawn to finish, using a structured and field-tested approach.

Opening Section: Spawns and First Obstacles

Freezy Peak begins with a variety of spawn points, some clearly more favorable than others. The technical difficulty is medium, with some segments relying heavily on tight jumps and positioning. The randomness, while mostly tied to your spawn location and initial obstacles, stays fairly low throughout the level, meaning you can master this course with enough practice.

There are two main spawn types:

• Sideways Fists Spawn
• Upwards Fists Spawn

Sideways Fists

This section features two fists angled toward the path. The key to identifying the punching order is looking at their placement: the closer fist to the wall will punch first. The ideal line is slightly off-center, close enough to dodge the first punch and breeze past the second.

A good spawn will place you on the far side of the first punching fist, giving you an open run. A bad spawn puts you directly in its path, which is problematic due to the icy floor. In this case, waiting for the fist to retract is safer than trying to dodge on the slippery surface.

Be aware of a current bug on the conveyor belt immediately following this area. If you approach it too quickly, you may get pushed back unexpectedly, as though a phantom fan is working against you. This glitch seems to trigger when players are fast off the mark. If it happens repeatedly, try starting slightly slower, or even consider switching to the upwards fists route, which is faster if executed cleanly.

Upwards Fists

This is the optimal route for speedrunners and seasoned players. The fists punch in a zigzag pattern. The trick is to follow the same diagonal rhythm, running over the fists as they retract.

If timed well, you’ll pass through untouched. Position yourself smartly before entering, and keep moving fluidly. This section can feel unforgiving, but it rewards confident movement.

The Mid Section: Fans, Snowballs, and Spiral Climb

Side Fans and Springboard

After the upward fists, you’ll encounter side-blowing fans. The trick is simple: hug the fans closely while moving forward. If done right, you’ll get a nudge from the wind without being blown into the springboard. This area is consistent and should be navigated cleanly every time with the right approach.

Double Fan Snowball Section

This area trips up many players. The snowball typically rolls on the left-hand side, so move toward the right fan to avoid getting clipped.

You can generally hold forward across both fans and reach the other side without issue. However, if you get a high launch from the first fan, be ready to adjust. Letting go of the forward input momentarily on the second fan allows for a better lift, reducing the risk of falling short.

Sometimes, snowballs get clogged in the fans, causing traffic jams. In this case, a savvy trick is to drop down to the outer rim of the fans, run along them, and jump back up at the end. This move can vault you ahead of less experienced players waiting in line.

Spiral Climb

Perhaps the trickiest segment of Freezy Peak, the spiral features alternating fists and springboards along a narrow path. The goal is to sync your movement with the retracting fists.

• If a fist is retracting, run past it directly.
• If a fist is about to punch, jump and dive over the springboard.

Certain fists, specifically 2 & 3 and 6 & 7, are synchronized, allowing you to run past both when timed right. This sequence can shave valuable seconds off your run.

If the spiral is crowded, take extra caution. Players triggering springboards can send you flying even if you never touched them. If you’re not racing to survive elimination, it’s often safer to wait for the fists rather than risk a misfire that sends you back to the bottom.

Final Climb and Finish

Circular Conveyor Ramp

Run up the ramp until you see the blue snowy section—this is your signal to jump onto the conveyor belt. Avoid hugging the inner wall, as there’s a tiny lip that can block your jump. Give yourself room and line up for a clean ascent.

Final Fan and Goal

After the conveyor belt, the final fan awaits. Jump onto it, make a 90-degree right turn, and launch toward the goal. That final hop can make or break your placement, especially in tight races.

Tips and Tricks

1. Springboard Randomness

The springboards before the spiral have random directions. Occasionally, you’ll get a forward-boosting spring that can launch you far ahead, possibly into first place. This is pure luck, and while it’s not a strategy you can rely on, it’s worth noting. Just don’t plan your run around it.

2. Floaty Dive

While in fan streams, if you get too much air, use a dive to exit the stream early. This maneuver grounds you faster and avoids time-wasting floatiness. It also allows you to recover your movement and position more efficiently.

3. Snowball Workarounds

As mentioned earlier, when the snowballs clog the fans, run around the outer rim of the fans. Jump down safely, move along the edges, and jump back up when the opportunity presents itself. This is an excellent way to avoid pileups.

Final Thoughts

Freezy Peak is a test of technical movement, environmental awareness, and real-time decision-making. While it’s possible to get unlucky with spawns or obstacles, the level rewards clean execution and calm under pressure. Use each run as an opportunity to refine your timing—particularly in the spiral—and always stay flexible with your strategy. Whether you’re racing for first or just trying to qualify, these tools will keep you ahead of the pack.

So next time you drop into Freezy Peak, remember: zigzag with confidence, time your climbs, and don’t let a snowball get in your way. Good luck out there, and may the slopes treat you well.
