World 1-4 is the sixth of eight available stages in "VS Game" and "You VS Boo" in Super Mario Bros. Deluxe.
Layout
Starting with two small gaps to be crossed, the players then reach a section resembling the "top and bottom" Fire-Bar sections that were in the namesake original level, but now with Spike Traps instead of Fire-Bars. There is additionally a power-up ? Block at the end of the section.
The players then encounter a stone cage labyrinth, requiring frequent hits into Face Blocks to remove the impassable Dotted-Line Block walls from the gaps.
Afterwards, bridges consisting of Dotted-Line Blocks have to be crossed. Players dropping below the bridges can find themselves temporarily trapped unless they hit Face Blocks underneath the bridges, or may fall down the small lava pits below the middle of the bridges. Mario can however also cross all three of them with full-speed dash jumps.
Making it then through a short drop chicane, two gaps modeled on the ones from World 2-4 (Super Mario Bros.) indicate that Bowser is nearby. Making their way past him and touching the axe will win the level. There are no victory cutscenes and the level cuts immediately to the result screen.
