{{ | '''Hidden Treasures''' (originally called '''Surprise Boxes'''<ref>"''Sometimes if [[Mario|you]] jump at the right places, a [[treasure chest|treasure box]] will pop out of thin air. Anything like this happen to you? These treasure boxes are known as “Surprise Boxes”, because they appear out of nowhere.''" — '''[[Chester]]''', ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''</ref>) are invisible [[treasure chest|treasure boxes]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. [[Mario]] learns about Surprise Boxes from an old [[Toad (species)|Toad]] living in the basement of the [[Toad Town|Mushroom Kingdom]] [[Item Shop]]. By jumping, [[Mario]] can discover the location of the invisible treasures. Thirty-nine of them are found in the game. A friendly [[Chester]] in [[Monstro Town]] provides Mario the number of Surprise Boxes left to be found. Later in the game, Mario can collect and equip an Accessory from [[Croco]], the [[Signal Ring]], which makes a noise whenever he is in an area with a Surprise Box. There is no reward for opening every Surprise Box, and the Chester from Montro Town will say, "Wow, you found them all." for doing so. | ||
