'''Tower of Frozen Waves''' is the second special episode of Cookie Run that was released on 21 December 2015. It introduced a new 'level' system seen in games like ''Candy Crush Saga'', where players have to complete a mission in each level before being able to progress to the next. Each stage has 3 different missions. Completing missions will give the player prizes (such as Crystals or even Treasures) and stars, which can be collected and exchanged for more prizes. There are 100 unique stages in total. The leaderboard of this episode is different from standard episodes - instead of showing a numbered score, the leaderboard shows the map of stages and what stages your friends are at.
