Sand blocks first appear in the game ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' for the [[Game Boy]]. They dissolve as soon as [[Mario]] walks over them. They do not return afterwards. In one level in [[Rocky-Valley]], walking over sand blocks will set a group of [[Chikuchiku]] free which are trapped under the sand blocks. [[Stage 9-7]] in the [[Tower (world)|Tower]] consists almost entirely of sand blocks.

In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', sand blocks appear in many [[Super Mario Sunshine#Secret levels|secret levels]]. If Mario walks over them, they collapse and disappear, then reappear after a certain amount of time. Their function is similar to the [[Shrinking Tile]]s that are later found in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and the 3D version of the [[Donut Block]]s as they appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''.
