Sand blocks first appear in ''[[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]], which are trapped under the sand blocks, free. [[Stage 9-7]] in the [[Tower (world)|Tower]] consists almost entirely of sand blocks.

Similar blocks make up the body of the [[Sand Bird]]; however, these do not collapse when Mario walks on them.
