As [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]] or Caped Luigi, there is a method in which he can always hit each row's Prize Blocks in the correct order. To do so, he must perform a [[Spin Jump]] on the left side of each Prize Block from left to right.

Mario in a 1-Up Chamber in Super Mario World
Mario in a 1-Up Room

1-Up Rooms,[1] or 1-Up Chambers,[2][3] are sub-areas that are accessed through certain Warp Pipes in Super Mario World. 1-Up Rooms consist of five horizontal floorboards, each with three Prize Blocks within it. If Mario or Luigi jumps onto a floorboard, he cannot return to the one below him. The topmost floorboard has a Warp Pipe leading back into the main level. With each tier, the object is to jump at the Prize Blocks in a certain order, which is always randomized. If Mario or Luigi jumps at the correct first and second Prize Blocks each, he earns a coin, followed by a 1-Up Mushroom in the third Prize Block. Jumping at the first one or two Prize Blocks in the correct order turns each one into an O/X BlockMedia:OX Block.png. If Mario or Luigi jumps at a Prize Block in the incorrect order, every Prize Block in its row turns into a Brown Block. The player has a ⅙ chance to get a 1-Up Mushroom from each row of blocks; a ⅓ chance to hit the correct first block, a ½ chance to hit the correct second block, and then the third block, if hittable, will always contain the 1-Up Mushroom.

There is an exploit where Mario or Luigi can perform a Spin Jump in Caped form on the left side of each Prize Block in a given row and have the order be considered correct, provided the blocks are hit from left to right.[4] This is easier to do from a standing position, as riding Yoshi alters the character’s trajectory. This method does not work in the GBA version.

1-Up Rooms appear in the following locations:

Level Location
Donut Plains 1 In a blue Warp Pipe above several Yellow Blocks over a pit after the second Dragon Coin.
Donut Plains 3 In a yellow Warp Pipe next to the fourth Dragon Coin, accessible by riding a Pulley Lift after the Midway Gate.
#2 Morton's Castle In a green Warp Pipe hidden in a ceiling passage at the top left of the first room. This pipe requires Caped Mario to reach.
Vanilla Dome 3 In a green Warp Pipe hidden in a ceiling passage to the top right of the first pair of orange pipes. This green pipe requires Caped Mario or a midair jump off Yoshi to reach.
#4 Ludwig's Castle In a green Warp Pipe hidden at the top right end of the first room, accessible via a false block in the ceiling just before the door leading to the second room.
Forest of Illusion 3 In the second blue Warp Pipe from the start of the level, below the third Bob-omb in a bubble.
Chocolate Island 5 In the first yellow Warp Pipe. It is sealed off by Brown Blocks, requiring the Switch Block to its left to be pressed to uncover it.
Valley of Bowser 1 In a blue Warp Pipe hidden in a ceiling alcove up and to the right of the Grab Blocks concealing the pipe to the Giant Gate. This pipe requires Caped Mario or a midair jump off Yoshi to reach.
Valley of Bowser 3 In a yellow Warp Pipe guarded by a red Koopa Troopa parallel to another yellow pipe, right after the third Dragon Coin.
