Wait, are the Frozen characters ponies in this scenario? I do appreciate though some of the references to Once Upon A Time's version of Frozen.
I would have done this maybe had I nothing better to do... But then you had to throw in The Legend of Zelda. I'm not a video gamer. I know nothing about that.
Elizabeth Comstock? Let's see what Google says... Bioshock Infinite. Oh, another video game. Wonderful.
But in all seriousness, this series if written would be as wonderfully big and vast as Merlos the Mad's Madverse stories.
Uh...bit of a conflict of interest there, isn't it?

Well, thaw him out to the point where he could move and talk again. He, Kristoff, and Sven would have been trapped in a perpetual frozen state.
3057284
Yes. Arendelle exists in Equestria's universe in this "series".
Sorry about that.
But, again, if someone were to take inspiration from this and write their own version of it they wouldn't have to follow it exactly as I planned it out.
3057829 You know, I admit I've been percolating an idea for a Massive Multiplayer Crossover myself that's inspired by Merlos the Mad's Madverse but also quite heavily inspired by the Hasbroverse.
(That might give you an indication of what it's a crossover with.) Anyway, my only problem was my initial idea entailed sending the Mane 6 off to different fictional places, and I wasn't too sure what would be going on in Equestria beside an invasion. Perhaps following your format and bringing other worlds to Equestria would be a better way to do it. To do it, I'd have to change a lot of your Seasons 2 and 3 in regards of who the multiplayers are.
