'''Mystery Boxes''' are objects debuting in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''.
'''Mystery Boxes''' are boxes [[Mario]] can access in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They are found in most Worlds of the game, and contain various different tasks, such as defeating all the enemies in the box within ten seconds. When Mario completes the tasks, he will receive items such as [[Coin]]s, [[1-Up Mushroom]]s or a [[Star Coin|Star Medal]].
==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
In ''Super Mario 3D Land'', they are found in most Worlds, with their primary task being to defeat all the enemies in the box within ten seconds. Enemies can range from [[Goomba]]s to [[Boom Boom]]s. When Mario completes the task, [[coin]]s and a [[Star Medal]] appear. Other items, such as [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, [[Super Leaf|Super Leaves]] and [[Fire Flower]]s are also found within Mystery Boxes. However, if Mario loses a life in a Mystery Box, he will be forced to quit the level. Whenever the player first encounters a Mystery Box on the world map, they are required to enter it before moving on. The Mystery Box theme is a remix of the [[Teleporter (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|Teleporter]] theme from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.

[[File:Golden_Mystery_Box.JPG|thumb|left|A golden Mystery Box. Note that there are two Star Medals.]]
Mystery Boxes can also be golden on the inside, while still appearing purple on the outside. All of the golden-sided Mystery Boxes contain two Star Medals, and at least three 1-Up Mushrooms, with some containing as many as eight. No golden-sided Mystery Boxes contain enemies, and as such, Star Medals appear immediately upon entering a box. They can contain many different things, such as [[Poison Mushroom]]s, [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s, or even [[P-Wing]]s. These Mystery Boxes have a cover of the [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|main theme]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' as the background music.
Mystery Boxes can also be golden in the inside, while still appearing purple on the outside. Most of the golden-sided Mystery Boxes have two Star Medals in them, and many 1-Up Mushrooms. Mystery Boxes can contain many different things, such as [[Poison Mushroom|Poison Mushrooms]], [[Toad (species)|Toads]], or even [[Boom Boom]]s and [[P-Wing|P-Wings]].


There are a total of 20 unique normal Mystery Box contents and 15 unique golden-sided Mystery Boxes contents. Golden-sided Mystery Boxes more rarely appear than normal ones. Each normal Mystery Box can be found in two different Worlds, while each golden-sided one can only be found in a single World.
After completing a Mystery Box, it turns gray, "falls asleep", and is inaccessible. It may be accessed again 24 hours later.


After completing a Mystery Box, it turns gray on the overworld map and "falls asleep", rendering it inaccessible. It may be accessed again 20 hours later. The contents of each Mystery Box changes each time it is re-entered.
Mystery Boxes can also be accessed via StreetPass (A wireless feature that automatically exchanges infomation with other [[3DS]] holders while the system is in sleep mode). The only difference in a StreetPass Mystery Box is that it is guaranteed to have a Star Medal or two, unless of course all Star Medals have been collected.  
 
Mystery Boxes can also be accessed via {{iw|nwiki|StreetPass}}, a wireless feature that automatically exchanges information with nearby [[Nintendo 3DS]] systems while the system is in sleep mode). The only difference in a StreetPass Mystery Box is that it is guaranteed to have a Star Medal or two, unless of course all Star Medals have been collected.  
 
Mystery Boxes also can appear in some levels of ''Super Mario 3D Land'', which the goal is to collect as many coins from the blocks within the time limit. In the early versions of the game, these Mystery Boxes used the same design as that of the current [[Warp Box]]; similarly, the early Warp Boxes used the current Mystery Box design, albeit with an exclamation point instead of a question mark.<ref>{{cite|author=UltimatePisman|date=May 27, 2015|title=''Super Mario 3D Land'': E3 2011 Beta|archive=web.archive.org/web/20150819031416/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8CaDJZzjJY|deadlink=y|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=June 29, 2024}}</ref> The colors were switched in the final version of the game.
 
====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
Mystery Boxes in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and [[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury|its Nintendo Switch port]] can only be found in levels. Each of them has a [[Green Star]] which must be collected within the time limit. If Mario fails, he is sent back to the proper level. The Green Stars must be collected in different ways, like defeating every enemy present, navigating through a small obstacle course, or using given items or forms to reach it. Certain worlds also feature special courses called [[Mystery House]]s, which consist of clearing a number of Mystery Box courses in quick succession. In one area of the [[Shiftier Boo Mansion]] level, a [[illusion|fake Mystery Box]] appears, which summons a [[Big Boo]] when interacted with.
 
===''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''===
Mystery Boxes also appear in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' and its Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|ports]], appearing only in [[Coins Galore]] bonus levels this time. After entering a Coins Galore level, [[Captain Toad]] or [[Toadette]] can select two Mystery Boxes: one that accesses a bonus area with [[Super Pickax]]es and other that access a bonus area with [[Double Cherry|Double Cherries]]. The task is to collect many coins or [[Gold Mushroom]]s within 10 seconds. After completing a Coins Galore level, it cannot be entered again. However, if the Toads complete every level of the game, these Coins Galore levels will be permanently open and can be accessed at any time from the [[Bonus Episode]].
