*'''Blocks''': There are breakable blocks, unbreakable blocks, and blocks containing hidden secrets.  Some blocks appear out of thin air when you jump up.  Breakable blocks can only be broken by Mario or Luigi when they are in Super or Fire modes.  Inside "?" blocks you'll find power-ups, coins, and other special surprises.  Regular blocks may also contain power-ups and 10 coins, therefore every block is worth a punch, but don't run out of time!

*'''Flagpoles''': The flag pole signifies the end of the level in every world.  A staircase usually precedes the flagpole, giving Mario or Luigi a high platform to jump from.  The higher you land on the flagpole, the more points you are awarded, up to a maximum of 5000.  It is also possible to score more bonus points depending on when the clock stops (see [[Super Mario Bros./Secrets|Secrets]]).
*'''Flagpoles''': The flag pole signifies the end of the first three levels in every world.  A staircase usually precedes the flagpole, giving Mario and Luigi a high platform to jump from.  The higher to land on the flagpole, the more points you are awarded, up to a maximum of 5000.  It is also possible to score more bonus points depending on when the clock stops (see [[Super Mario Bros./Secrets|Secrets]]).  It is nearly impossible to jump over the flag pole, but in rare instances it can be done, in which case Mario will run endlessly through an empty terrain until time runs out.
