Appearances
Super Mario World
Thwimps appeared in both the SNES and the Game Boy Advance versions of Super Mario World where they were enemies and hopped back and forth in large arcs trying to land on, and kill, Mario or Luigi. Not unlike their larger cousins, Thwimps can kill the player with just a touch so the player has to avoid them. They usually appear in groups of two and cause obstacles in small hallways. In Lemmy's Castle, the Thwimps created by Magikoopa can be destroyed by shells, also created by the Magikoopa. However, the Thwimps are only vulnerable for a few seconds, after which the shell will have no effect. But, they first appeared in Morton's Castle.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong
Thwimps also made a few other appearances in later games, such as Mario vs. Donkey Kong where they were enemies that appeared in the Spooky House world of the game. The thwimps once again tried to defeat Mario by landing on him and are invincible but once again Mario must avoid them to defeat Donkey Kong and win the level.
Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3
Thwimps are also found in the e-Reader level "Swinging Bars of Doom" in Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3.
Trivia
- Thwimp's name is a portmanteau of "Thwomp" and "wimp".
- Super Mario Galaxy 2 introduced a new enemy called a Whimp, which is the Whomp version of the Thwimp.
