It has been suggested that this page be moved to tile. Reason: unique name, not to be confused with the game's other blocks, and the remake replaces the Rose Way sign's mention of "blocks" with "tiles" (discuss)

Blocks, also known as tiles or Boards,[1] are objects in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. These yellow square-shaped panels hover above the ground and function as platforms, and they usually appear in pairs. When Mario jumps onto a block, the other revolves around it. When he jumps to the next one, the platform that he was previously standing on begins to revolve around the one he is currently standing on. Blocks can be used to cross lava-filled rooms or to reach treasure boxes that are otherwise too high to reach. Some blocks move quicker than others. Other blocks that do not move in this way occasionally appear, such as in Dr. Topper's room and in Rose Way. Blocks first appear in the level Bandit's Way in the Mushroom Kingdom. Many individuals have traveled to Bandit's Way to see the blocks for themselves.[2] These blocks closely resemble the Rotating Blocks of Super Mario World.
