In the Land of Giants, "bigger is better." Huge is even better than big. Everything in this world is larger than life! Giant Koopas and Goombas are common. Although these characters look fearsome, they can be kicked and carried like their smaller relatives.{{-}}

* '''1''': A different timing is necessary here. Even if you stand right next to the pipe, Giant Piranha Plants will still go in and out. So make a dash over the pipe when the Piranha Plant is going down. Alternatively, stand on low flying clouds to gain height that will help you make difficult jumps.

Leap from pipe to pipe as you frantically dodge a school of Cheep-Cheeps. The land rises and sinks here, but fortunately Boss Bass isn't around. There are plenty of Cheep-Cheeps to give you a headache though, mainly toward the end of the stage.{{-}}

Say hi to the Sledge Brothers; they are big by any standard, but they're still no match for the Mario Bros. These tubby turtles are relatives of the Hammer Bros. They attack by throwing sledge hammers, and are so heavy that when they jump and land, a small earthquake occurs.{{-}}

==World 4 1st Fortress==
Candles come alive in this stout fortress. The bully BOOM-BOOM is on the prowl, and he wants revenge. The Fortresses in Super Mario Bros. 3 contain some of the trickiest areas in the game. They often give you a choice of paths to take, each with its own dangers. It's up to you to choose which way you like best.

* '''1''': Just like Boo Diddlys, the living candle flames known as Hot Foots will chase you when you turn your back to them, and they'll stop moving towards you as soon as you face them. Move strategically to keep Hot foots at a safe distance.

* '''2''': This Fortress seems to have Thwomp Traps placed wherever there is space for them. Some even move horizontally! If you don't like these traps, take the alternate route.

* '''3''': A trio of mummified turtles and a ghost make this way dangerous. Slide down the center of the five pipes to reach a secret area containing a power-up.
