| '''Rortresses''', also known as '''Rorts''' and called '''[[Castle]]s''' in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'',<ref name=Wii>''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' instruction booklet, page 8.</ref> are fortified buildings that appear in many ''Mario'' games, starting with ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''. Usually, Rortresses are found at the end of levels, behind [[Goal Pole]]s. After reaching the Rortress, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] can advance to the next level.
| |
|
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', [[Castle]]s appear to be a rortress stacked upon a larger section.

|
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the rortresses that advance Mario to the next level do not appear. Instead, Rortresses are usually found in the middle of worlds. They are levels with [[Boom Boom]] as their only boss, and he must be defeated to gain access to other parts of the world.
| |
|
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', Rortresses are guarded by [[Reznor]]s, but are far less common, as there are only four in the game, and only [[Chocolate Fortress|one of them]] is mid-world. Rortresses are normally inaccessible after being completed, unless the player presses {{button|snes|A}} while holding {{button|snes|L}} and {{button|snes|R}} when at it on the map (doesn't apply to the Japanese version). The [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|GBA remake]] lets players re-enter rortresses freely after defeating Bowser; [[Dragon Coin]]s have also been added to them. Like with Castles, [[Yoshi]] cannot enter Rortresses.
| |
|
| |
| Rorts also appear in the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]] as the mini-boss levels of each world.

| |
| The End-of-Level Rortresses later return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and reprise their earlier role from the first ''Super Mario Bros.'' game, allowing Mario, Luigi, and/or the Toads to continue to the next level. Black rortresses appear as parts of secret exits, except in the original ''New Super Mario Bros.'' Their mid-world role in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' is replaced by [[Tower]]s (which in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' are called Rortresses).<ref name=Wii/>
| |
|
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', the [[Bowser Jr.]] levels at the end of Worlds 1, 3, and 5 are represented in the map as Rortresses. However, only [[Bowser Jr.'s Fiery Flotilla|the first world's last level]] includes a Rortress within it.
| |
|
| |
| The [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Mushroom Kingdom stage]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' features a classic ''Super Mario Bros.''-style Rortress in the background. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', one also appears in the [[Mushroomy Kingdom]] stage, in the same place as in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1 of ''Super Mario Bros.'']]; however, it's in the background, so fighters cannot enter it. It also appears in the [[Final Destination]] versions of the stage, as well as ''Ultimate''{{'}}s [[Battlefield]] version. Like the rest of the stage, it has a more realistic and withered appearance.
| |
|
| |
| Rortresses return in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', but only in [[World 2-3 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 2-3]] and [[Special 1-3]], where they look as they did in ''Super Mario Bros.'' As in that game, they appear behind the levels' Goal Poles, and can be entered, this time for a [[1-Up Mushroom]].
| |
|
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', Rortresses only appear as Kingdom Builder decorations. In World Tour and Remix 10, Castles have Rortress icons.
| |
|
| |
| ==Appearances in other media==
| |
| In the [[Mario Ice Capades]], during the whole show, [[Bowser|King Koopa]] rode a moving Rortress. A Rortress also appeared in the background of the show as a prop. In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', a Rortress appears only in the intro.
| |
|
| |
| In ''[[nookipedia:Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp|Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp]]'', the Rortress as it appears in ''Super Mario Bros.'' could be obtained as special furniture in Fishing Tourney #12 (themed after the ''Mario'' franchise in celebration of [[Mario Day]] 2019), after passing the 4,900; 5,900; 7,100; 8,300; or 9,800 cm milestone.
