History
Super Mario Bros. Wonder
In Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Wonder Flowers activate Wonder Effects when collected, which change some mechanics in the level or transform the player. Every main level has one Wonder Flower, and the Wonder Effect they create always leads to a Wonder Seed. Wonder Flowers come in different colors depending on the world in which they are found, such as blue in Pipe-Rock Plateau, cyan in Fluff-Puff Peaks, red-magenta in Shining Falls, yellow in Sunbaked Desert, green in Fungi Mines, purple in Deep Magma Bog, orange in Petal Isles, and gray with a yellow highlight in the Special World. Once the Wonder Effect's respective Wonder Seed is collected, the Wonder Flower turns gray and transparent. One Wonder Flower also plays a major role in the game's plot, as Bowser arrived in the Flower Kingdom during the opening sequence to steal it, and uses it to merge himself, his Koopa Clown Car, and the Flower Castle together to form a flying fortress in his own likeness.
Super Mario Run
Wonder Flowers appear in Super Mario Run during the second promotional Super Mario Bros. Wonder event from December 20, 2023 to March 15, 2024 in the Toad Rally mode.[1] They replace and behave identically to Coin Rush Stars, activating Coin Rush when the meter is filled up. A Wonder Flower also appears in the icon for version 3.1.0 of the game.
Concept and creation
The Wonder Flower was conceived as part of an effort to introduce surprising elements that would challenge the player.[2] The original idea was to include items that would warp players to a new area but producer Takashi Tezuka found the idea uninteresting, stating, "If you're still just going to warp to a different area, it's still the same. Why don't you just change where you are right now?"[2] To gather suggestions for effects the Wonder Flower could have, director Shiro Mouri and Tezuka polled the entire development team of Super Mario Bros. Wonder no matter their seniority or role on the project, receiving a little over 2,000 suggestions.[2]
