'''Hidden Treasures''' (originally '''hidden treasures''', and alternatively '''hidden chests'''<ref>"''Noise indicates a hidden chest.''" &mdash; Signal Ring description, ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''</ref> or '''Surprise Boxes'''<ref>"''Sometimes if you jump at the right places, a treasure box will pop out of thin air. Anything like this happen to you? These treasure boxes are known as “Surprise Boxes”, because they appear out of nowhere.''" &mdash; '''[[Comeon|Chester]]''', ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''</ref>) are invisible [[treasure chest|treasure box]]es in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. [[Mario]] learns about Hidden Treasures from an old [[Toad (species)|Toad]] living in the basement of the [[Toad Town|Mushroom Kingdom]] [[Item Shop]]. By jumping, [[Mario]] can discover the location of the invisible treasures. Thirty-nine of them are found in the game. A friendly [[Comeon]] in [[Monstro Town]] provides Mario the number of Hidden Treasures left to be found. Later in the game, Mario can collect and equip an Accessory from [[Croco]], the [[Signal Ring]], which makes a noise whenever he is in an area with a Hidden Treasure. There is no reward for opening every Hidden Treasure, and the Comeon from Monstro Town will say, "Wow, you found them all." for doing so.

This article is about the hidden containers from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. For the minigame from Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix, see Hidden Treasure (minigame).
An old Mushroom person telling Mario to jump beside him; this action results in revealing a Hidden Treasure.
“In this world, there are things called "hidden treasures". Use your awesome jumping ability to look for 'em.”
—Mushroom person, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Hidden Treasures (originally hidden treasures), alternatively called Surprise Boxes[1] or hidden chests,[2] are invisible treasure boxes in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. The magic that cloaks these treasure boxes is of unknown origin.[3] Mario learns about Hidden Treasures from an old Mushroom person living in the basement of the Item Shop in the Mushroom Kingdom. By jumping, Mario can discover the location of the invisible treasures. 39 of them are found in the game. A friendly Comeon in Monstro Town provides Mario the number of Hidden Treasures left to be found. Later in the game, Mario can collect and equip an accessory from Croco, the Signal Ring, which makes a noise whenever Mario is in an area with a Hidden Treasure. There is no reward for opening every Hidden Treasure, and the Comeon from Monstro Town says, "Wow, you found them all," for doing so.

The concept of hidden containers is carried over with Hidden Blocks in the Paper Mario games and Mario & Luigi games.

Mario's Pad, Vista Hill, Mushroom Way, Kero Sewers, Midas River, Tadpole Pond, Rose Way, Moleville, Booster Hill, Star Hill, Seaside Town, Sea, Grate Guy's Casino, Barrel Volcano and Bowser's Keep are only locations without any hidden treasures.

Locations[edit]

Location Item Description Image (SNES) Image (Switch)
Mushroom Kingdom Frog Coin.png
Frog Coin 		In the original, this Hidden Treasure can only be opened the first time Mario enters the castle. When Mario sees Toad, he should jump on his head. As Toad approaches the door, the player should jump up from him to the platform above the doorway. Jumping at the center of the platform reveals the Hidden Treasure.

In the remake, the player can get the chest at any time by jumping on a mushroom person's head and jumping up to it.
