Super Mario World

This guide, once completed, will tell you how to complete Super Mario World, from start to finish. It contains information on items, enemies, characters, locations, and secrets. This guide is based on the SNES version of the game. It aims to provide information about the game itself, rather than the development/impact of the game.

Unless otherwise made clear by the context, throughout this guide, "Mario" refers to both Mario and Luigi.

''Note: This guide is currently incomplete. Please help by provide information, correcting errors (grammar/spelling and factual errors), linking terms and providing snapshots.''
