'''Assist Blocks''' | '''Assist Blocks'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick. 2012. ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide. Page 33.</ref> are golden [[block]]s that appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. There are two types of Assist Blocks: one that contains an [[Invincibility Leaf]], and one that contains a [[P-Wing]]; these items help the player reach the end of the level, and they appear near the beginning (or midway) of the stage after losing a certain number of lives in that stage. | ||

The Invincibility Leaf Assist Block appears | The Invincibility Leaf Assist Block only appears 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 don't appear in the Special Worlds, and don't return if the level in question is beaten. | ||
Exclusive to ''Super Mario 3D Land'', the P-Wing Assist Block appears after Mario loses ten lives in a level. Using the P-Wing takes Mario all the way to the end of the level, in front of the [[Goal Pole]]. | |||
If an Assist Block appears in a level, any stars on the current save file [[Missable content| | If an Assist Block appears in a level, any stars on the current save file [[Missable content|will no longer sparkle]] (similar to the effect of the [[Super Guide Block]] from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''). Moreover, the player's score will not show up after beating the level after using it. | ||

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). | In ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'', only the Invincibility Leaf Assist Block returns.

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'' | 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''. 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]]. Like in ''3D Land'', when the player uses the block, the current save file will not sparkle and the level's score will remain at zero, but in this game, the save file will be restored if the player completes the level without using the block. Also, when the player beats the level without using it, the Assist Block will vanish. | ||
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. | 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. | ||
