A '''Count-Lift'''<ref>M. Arakawa. Nintendo ''Mario Mania'' Player's Guide. Pages 140 and 141.</ref> (or '''Countdown Platform''')<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 28, page 20.</ref> is a type of [[lift]] appearing in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. It has a grassy top and a dirt-like bottom, with a countdown timer in the middle. Count-Lifts appear in only one [[level]]: [[Valley of Bowser 3]]. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] jumps onto a Count-Lift, it moves in a straight line to the right while counting down. When the timer reaches zero, the lift falls. Most Count-Lifts last for only one second, but some last for four seconds.

A '''Count-Lift'''<ref>{{cite|title=Nintendo ''[[Mario Mania]]'' Player's Guide|page=140-141|date=August 1991|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> (or '''Countdown Platform''')<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Power'' Volume 28|page=20|date=September 1991|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> is a type of [[lift]] appearing in ''[[Super Mario World]]''.

Most Count-Lifts last for only one second, but some last for four seconds.


A Count-Lift also appears in the Modern version of the [[Game & Watch]] game ''[[Turtle Bridge]]'' in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 3]]''. When [[Toad]] accumulates 300 [[point]]s, the platform below the [[Cloud Block]]s turns into a three-second Count-Lift, which starts counting down after Toad lands on it. Unlike in ''Super Mario World'', the Count-Lift is pink and does not move to the right while counting down. Also, when its timer reaches zero, the Count-Lift shakes a little before falling, reappearing shortly afterward. If Toad [[jump]]s onto or stays on the Count-Lift as it falls, he will lose a life. At 600 points, the Count-Lift turns into two [[Donut Block]]s.

Count-Lifts reappear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', where they are now known as '''Dropdown Countdown Lifts'''.
