Template:Infobox Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 is a game released for the Game Boy in 1994, and is a sequel to Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins. However, "Super Mario Land 3" is a somewhat misleading title, as the game is not really about Mario at all, but rather about Wario. Mario does, however, make a cameo at the end of the game, stealing the statue Wario worked so hard to collect. However, Wario does get his own house or castle (and at the highest amount, a whole planet) as a reward for saving Kitchen Island.

Wario jumps in and out of a body of water while avoiding some common enemies: a Bird and a Pinwheel.

Desiring a castle of his own, Wario sets out to find a lost golden statue of Princess Toadstool that he intends to ransom to her for the money to buy his own castle. Along the way he gladly collects any other gold coins and treasures he finds. The game is spent navigating a number of levels to reclaim his lost treasures, and has a significant level of replayability due to the branched path many of the levels take.

Wario starts out on Rice Beach, a small area of Kitchen Island. On the map screen, the player will notice that Kitchen Island is shaped like a skull, and a skull theme is present throughout the game. The save points are skulls, as are the level exits, secret doors, etc.
