Cozy Winter Levels/Areas
Nothing here!

For all of Ape Escape 2's many sins, the winter level in the game is pretty alright. Certainly the best stage in the game, all things considered.
Ape Escape 3 has 2 winter-based levels in it: Winterville and Arctic Wonderland, and both are extremely mesmerizing in their design and music. True story, every year since 2006, I would pop in Ape Escape 3 every night before Christmas with a cup of hot chocolate, go to one of these levels, and just vibe to the soundtrack. My own personal Christmas tradition.
There's a level where you just build a snowman. It's ridiculously comfy, and the music playing in this level is peak soothing.
Holoska from Sonic Unleashed is probably one of the best levels in the series, and it's elevated immensely by the game's stellar soundtrack.
Mountains of Mira-Mira is just Klonoa snowboarding through a vast mountain range, and it's a pretty laidback stage.
In Frozen Altars, Spyro has an ice breath, and I just think that's neat.
Press Garden Zone is peak 2D Sonic, and I will die on this hill.
Ymir is my favorite location in the series for the sole fact that there's a snowboarding section and the music is comfy.
Technically it's only half a winter level, but Christmas Town in KH2 is one of the most visually interesting worlds in the series and a better transition of a winter-themed area from a Disney movie than Arendelle from 3.
