Top Secret Area

Template:Level The Top Secret Area is a level filled with power-ups able for use by Mario and Luigi during the events of Super Mario World. The area is situated behind the Donut Ghost House, and is unlocked by finding the secret exit in that Ghost House. It functions similar to the Toad Houses. In two-player mode, leaving the level will not end the player's turn.

Overview

The level consists of a single area with five ? Blocks. The two ? Blocks on the left hold Fire Flowers, the two on the right Cape Feathers (when Small Mario hits the ? Blocks, he will get a Super Mushroom first). A Yoshi Egg will appear when the center ? Block is hit (a 1-Up Mushroom appears if the player already has Yoshi). It contains no enemies, and can be accessed an infinite amount of times, allowing Mario and Luigi to acquire the maximum amount of extra lives. In the SNES version, the area has no Time Limit. In the GBA remake, the area has a time limit of 200 counts. All Yoshi colors are available in the remake, depending on the specific power-up Mario or Luigi has.
