Goomba Towers can be shortened or defeated depending on how many Goombas the stack has. For example, attacking a stack of four will reduce it to three, and so on. Alternatively, they can be defeated all at once with a [[Ground Pound]] or as [[Statue Mario]]. They can be defeated one-at-a-time by being [[jump|jumped]] on, being hit with a fireball or boomerang, being hit with [[Tanooki Mario]]'s tail or being hit while Mario is invincible. | ||

Goomba Towers, also known as Goomba Stacks,[1] are Goombas stacked on top of each other that first appeared in Super Mario 3D Land. They behave similarly to the Dangos in Super Mario Sunshine.
History[edit]
Super Mario series[edit]
Super Mario 3D Land[edit]
Goomba Towers attack in Super Mario 3D Land by running at the player and attempting to hit them in a similar fashion to individual Goombas. Goomba Towers can be shortened or defeated depending on how many Goombas the stack has. For example, attacking a stack of four will reduce it to three, and so on. Alternatively, they can be defeated all at once with a Ground Pound or as Statue Mario. They can be defeated one-at-a-time by being jumped on, being hit with a fireball or boomerang, being hit with Tanooki Mario's tail or being hit while Mario is invincible.
Three Goomba Towers are seen in Peach's Letters. Two try to attack her when she attempts to escape, but she defeats one with her parasol (apparently getting a 1-Up in the process). Another Goomba Tower is later seen chasing Peach with Bowser and his other minions. During the credits, Bowser is seen on top of a massive Goomba Tower, trying to reach Mario, who is carrying Peach home in his Tanooki form, though the tower falls over due to Bowser's weight.
New Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]
Goomba Towers reappear in New Super Mario Bros. 2, and can be defeated by the same methods as before. They can be affected by the Gold Ring, where they function the same as Gold Goombas.
They first appear in World 1-1, where the first one appears before the Checkpoint Flag, and two more appear right in front of the Goal Pole. If Mario defeats Goombas in a Goomba Tower without fully defeating the tower, and then walks offscreen, the Goomba Tower will go back to the original number of Goombas.
Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[edit]
Goomba Towers once again return as common enemies in the game Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch port Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. Once again, their attack pattern is simply to try to ram Mario or his allies. Some Goomba Towers have a Fire Bro at the top, and defeating it will instantly take out the whole tower. Goomba Towers can also hold objects such as Green Stars, power-ups, and Coins. Some Goomba Towers can be found with all the Goombas sleeping. In the Bowser’s Fury campaign, Cat Goombas can appear stacked up on top of each other.
Super Mario Maker / Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS / Super Mario Maker 2[edit]
Goomba Towers reappear in Super Mario Maker, Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS and Super Mario Maker 2. They are created when the player stacks multiple Goombas on top of each other when creating a level. Big Goomba Towers can be created by stacking Big Goombas that were enlarged by a Super Mushroom. They cannot be made in the Super Mario 3D World style due to the inability to stack enemies, despite Goomba Towers existing in the original game.
Super Mario Odyssey[edit]
Goomba Towers reappear as enemies in Super Mario Odyssey. They can be found in most of the kingdoms in the game, and attack by running into Mario as with other Goombas. This is their first appearance in a more sandbox-styled 3D game. If Mario captures a Goomba and jumps on other Goombas, he can make and control a Goomba Tower himself. Alternatively, capturing an existing stack puts Mario in control of the topmost Goomba. Captured Goomba Towers are required to activate Goomba buttons. Additionally, Goomba Towers can be used for collectibles impossible to reach otherwise, such as regional coins or Power Moons in a high place that are unobtainable in Mario's regular form. Unlike most other enemies, Goomba Towers do not get dazed when Mario uncaptures them. In certain scenarios, such as jumping into the edge of a platform, a lower Goomba can be separated from the others. That Goomba will be dazed.
The maximum number of Goombas there can be in a Goomba Tower legitimately is 30. This can be done in the Darker Side, in the area with the Yoofoe. The game itself can actually handle up to 200 Goombas in a stack before the Nintendo Switch crashes.[2]
