Tiles, also referred to as blocks 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 tile, 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. Tiles can be used to cross lava-filled rooms or to reach treasure boxes that are otherwise too high to reach. Some tiles move quicker than others. Other tiles that do not move in this way occasionally appear, such as in Dr. Topper's room and in Rose Way. There are also stationary, hidden tiles that permanently turn visible and tangible when hit from below, similar to the properties of a Hidden Treasure, allowing Mario to reach higher areas or objects. Tiles first appear in Bandit's Way in the Mushroom Kingdom Region. Many individuals have traveled to Bandit's Way to see the tiles for themselves.[2] Tiles closely resemble the Rotating Blocks of Super Mario World.
