Icicles in ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' are obstacles that drop from under the top platforms and pipes, where they would constantly regenerate. They are first encountered during Phase 16, or Phase 17 in Japanese versions, and kill the player if they fall upon them. However, icicles can also be deadly if touched while they are still attached to the ceiling. Touching an icicle while it is still a liquid droplet or using the [[POW Block]] will prevent it from being formed, though this will not award any points. However, the POW Block will also cause fully formed icicles to drop prematurely.

Most ports do not include icicles. The few that do are the PC-8001 port, ''[[Kaettekita Mario Bros.]]'', the unreleased Apple II port, the Atari 8-bit port, and the Europe-only "Classic Series" port for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]]. They also appear for the [[Mario Bros. (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance minigame remake]] found in the [[Super Mario Advance (series)|''Super Mario Advance'' series]] and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''.
