Rope gate

Rope walls are obstacles in Pikmin X: Deep Freeze. These walls consist of a metal frame with several taut wire ropes stretched between the top and bottom in such a way that it forms a solid barrier. The ropes themselves cannot be destroyed from the sides; rather, Pikmin must reach the exposed upper portion of the frame, generally accessible from a higher ledge, and then gradually untie the ropes until they all snap and fall to the floor, thus opening the path they were blocking.
