Game information[]

Frost Bite series[]

Bull beasts slowly, walk back and forth in the levels they are encountered in (on ice in Thin Ice, and on platforms in Frost Bite and Frost Bite 2). When the Eskimo is on the same platform the bull is on, or gets in the bull's line of sight, the bull will charge (as shown in the picture) at the Eskimo. The bull can also be killed with the grappling hook, but in the situation when it is charging, the player has to jump on it.

Its horns will not hurt the player since they are pointed forward. In Thin Ice, the player has to make a hole, then trick the bull into charging into it. Bulls are sometimes encountered in groups of three, walking through each other when they meet another Bull. Bulls are generally encountered at the start of the game, and in the Frost Bite series can be shot and killed from the platform below.

Trivia[]

  • When the bull is hit with the grappling hook, the death animation plays as if the bull's legs have been pulled by the grappling hook.
  • If the player is hit by a charging bull, or another creature, and jumps on the bull, they will not kill the bull, but they will lose health.
