Forest Maze
Forest Maze is a labyrinth of trees and underground passages found in the game Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. It includes some underground caverns accessed by traveling down tree stumps as well as some regular forested areas, but the main part is a maze infested with enemies. Mario had to follow Geno through it at one time. Forest Maze was Bowyer's base of operations. The Mushroom Boy of Seaside Town asks Mario to retrieve Mushrooms from the forest, and will offer Mario a prize if the plumber returns a rare Mushroom.
Music
The music of the Forest Maze is famous among players of the game, and was chosen as track 4 in the Arranged Version of the Super Mario RPG soundtrack. Only 5 tracks were included. In the music, many birds may be heard chirping. On both soundtracks, the music was titled, "Beware the Forest's Mushrooms!"
Hackers were able to find pointers to a removed song in the data of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The song was referenced as "snd_bgm_A12_MORINOKINOKO" (Mori no Kinoko, or "Mushroom Forest"), which may be a reference to this music. If so, it was most likely removed due to copyright issues with Square-Enix.
On the popular Japanese video site Nico Nico Douga, the area's background music was part of the "Nico Nico Douga Medley", a medley of various popular songs remixed. The version of the song included fan-made lyrics.
