The '''Mushroom Kingdom''' is the primary setting of the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, first appearing in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' Its appearance varies from game to game, often coinciding with the genre. However, common characteristics of the kingdom that are shared across games are its tall, round hills, presence of floating objects such as [[? Block]]s and [[coin]]s, [[Warp Pipe]]s, striped grasslands, and layered dirt. The kingdom is ruled by [[Princess Peach]] and the primary inhabitants are [[Toad (species)|Toads]].

When loaded, the game opens on an area with Peach's Tent, a replacement version of Peach's Castle. Below it is a cobblestone crossroad marked with Peach's emblem. Two Toads operate menus: one for the notifications menu and a [[Jammin' Toad|Toad wearing headphones]] for the menu governing playing music from the device's library. A [[Gift Box]] contains items granted through events. This area is bordered on the north and east by forests and hills, and on the west and south by water.

The Rainbow Bridges extend the kingdom in each direction. East and southeast of the castle is more of the same landmass.  West and southwest are two different landmasses located across the water. South is a set of seven islands in the water. One of these islands is large and has multiple places to position buildings, while another has a single place for a building.

The Mushroom Kingdom has inspired several stages in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. Two of these, both called [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros.)|Mushroom]] [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Kingdom]], are based off of the kingdom as it appeared in the original ''Super Mario Bros.'', with usable [[Warp Pipe]]s and [[POW Block]]s in ''Super Smash Bros.'', and [[? Block]]s and [[Brick Block]]s in ''Melee''. Despite its name, [[Mushroom Kingdom II]] from ''Melee'' is based off of [[Subcon]] as it appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' (specifically the depiction in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]''). All three of these stages feature 3-D versions of stage elements, such as blocks and platforms, while any characters are portrayed as flat 2-D images. The Japanese names of them instead name them as "Ancient Kingdom" as a tongue-in-cheek reference to their source games' relative age.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''{{'}}s Adventure Mode, the first stage is also called [[Mushroom Kingdom (Adventure Mode)|Mushroom Kingdom]], where players have to get past Goombas, Koopa Troopas, and a team of [[Yoshi]]s to reach Princess Peach's Castle, where Peach and either Mario or Luigi are fought. Two Toads also appear, one at the Yoshi arena and one at the endpoint.

''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' features [[Mushroomy Kingdom]], or "Ancient-ish Kingdom" in Japanese. Similar to the visual gag of them being "ancient" by featuring pixelated graphics in previous games, this stage depicts worlds from that game as long-abandoned regions. Familiar structures are now old, worn-down ruins and the entire stage appears as a barren desert and cave. The stage depicts replicated versions of [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]] (and [[World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]] originally) when selected.
