There are two types of Assist Blocks: one that contains an [[Invincibility Leaf]], and one that contains a [[P-Wing]], each shown with an icon of their respective power-ups. Each block is meant to contain these power-ups which assist the player to reach the end, and they appear near the beginning of the stage after losing a certain number of lives in that stage. |

|
| ==History==
| | The Invincibility Leaf Assist Block only appears after [[Mario]] loses five lives in a single stage. Once Mario collects the Invincibility Leaf, he transforms into [[White Tanooki Mario]] (''Super Mario 3D Land'') or [[White Raccoon Mario]] (''New Super Mario Bros. 2'') and becomes invincible for the entire stage. And Luigi cannot obtain one unless the player, as [[Mario]], skips a world by [[Warp Zone]]. |
| ===''Super Mario 3D Land''===
| |
| The Invincibility Leaf Assist Block appears only after [[Mario]] loses five lives in a single level. Once Mario collects the Invincibility Leaf, he transforms into [[White Tanooki Mario]] and becomes invincible for the entire level. However, [[Luigi]] cannot obtain one unless Mario skips a normal [[world]] level (for example, by [[Warp Zone]]), as these blocks do not appear in the Special Worlds, and they do not return if the level in question is beaten. | |
|
| |
|
| The P-Wing Assist Block appears after Mario loses ten lives in a level, allowing Mario to use the P-Wing to be taken to the end of the level, in front of the [[Goal Pole]].
| | In ''Super Mario 3D Land'', the P-Wing Assist Block appears after Mario loses ten lives in a stage. Using the P-Wing takes Mario all the way to the end of the stage, in front of the [[Flagpole]]. |
|
| |
|
| If an Assist Block appears in a level, any stars on the current save file [[Missable content|stop sparkling permanently]] (similar to the effect of the [[Super Guide Block]] from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'').
| | Assist Blocks don't appear in the Special Worlds. If Mario beats a level in ''Super Mario 3D Land'', the Assist Block will not appear in that level. However, in ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'', even if Mario beats the level without unlocking the Assist Block, he can still go back into the level and lose lives until it appears. |
| | |
| ===''New Super Mario Bros. 2''===
| |
| [[File:NSMB2 shot Assist Block.png|thumb|An Assist Block in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'']]
| |
| In ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'', only the Invincibility Leaf Assist Block returns. However, unlike in ''Super Mario 3D Land'', the leaf inside turns Mario into [[White Raccoon Mario]] (rather than White Tanooki Mario), it will always appear if five lives are lost in a level (regardless of whether or not the level in question has been beaten), and it will disappear if any level with one is cleared without using it (restoring the sparkles on the current save file's stars as well).
| |
| | |
| ===''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''===
| |
| The Invincibility Leaf Assist Block appears once more in ''Super Mario 3D World'', working as it did in ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'', though the White Tanooki form is retained from ''Super Mario 3D Land''; additionally, the level's score is not saved if it is used, though it can be restored upon clearing the level without using it. However, the number of lost lives needed to make it appear is based on the number of players: five for one player, 12 for two, 18 for three, and 24 for four. Furthermore, the Assist Block does not spawn in [[Champion's Road]].
| |
| | |
| The Assist Block reprises its role in the [[Nintendo Switch]] port ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'', although it is not in the ''Bowser's Fury'' campaign.

| | It should be noted, however, that if any of the Assist Blocks appear in a stage, the player will unable to have glittering stars on their save file (The same thing applies to the [[Super Guide Block]]s from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''). However, the player can get the glittering stars back by clearing the stage without using the Assist Block, after which the block will disappear. |
