The boss of this world is Morton Koopa Jr., who was also the boss of Desert Land in Super Mario Bros. 3. There are also giant Moai-like statues called Stone-Eyes in a sea of sand, which also appear in some levels and in the world map. A Super Acorn can also be found in the map alongside the Enemy Courses, where it'll place the Super Acorn in the inventory box. There are 9 levels in this world, with 6 normal levels, a secret level, the Tower level and the Castle level, as well as Goomba and Fire Bro. Enemy Courses, two red Toad Houses and a green Toad House. At the end of Layer-Cake Desert, there's a fork in the road, allowing the player to progress either to Frosted Glacier or Sparkling Waters.
