Part 7

Complete walkthrough for Part 7 of Super Mario Bros. including World 1-3 secret goal, World 1 Fortress with Larry Koopa, World 1-4, and World 1 Goomba battle.

This section covers the latter half of World 1 in Super Mario Bros., including finding secret exits, navigating challenging fortresses, and defeating the first boss, Larry Koopa.

World 1-3 Secret Goal & Coins

To find the secret goal in World 1-3, enter the hidden pipe after collecting coins and a 1-Up Mushroom from the top of the screen. This pipe leads to more coins and the secret goal.

If you skip the secret goal, collect the coins in the hidden chamber, drop down, eat the piranha, and jump to the third Star Coin. Avoid or defeat the hammer brothers before making a long jump to the normal Goal.

World 1 - Warp Cannon

The Warp Cannon to World 5 is accessible via the secret goal in World 1-3.

World 1 - Larrys Fortress

Start by grabbing an Ice Flower to defeat the dry bones. Navigate swinging and moving platforms, collecting another Ice Flower. A precise running jump is needed to reach the first Star Coin. Continue over swinging ledges, dodging dry bones, to reach a small ledge. Wall-jump to a hidden chamber above for the second Star Coin and use the midway flag.

Carefully use moving ledges to avoid being squished, grab an item from the box, and time your jump to a swinging platform. Wall-jump to the right to get the third Star Coin. Use the swinging platform to proceed. Grab coins or red coins from a ring. Jump across swinging and moving platforms to reach the top, where a hidden 1-Up Mushroom is located. Take a Fire Flower from the left item box before entering the boss doors.

World 1 Boss - Larry Koopa 1

Dodge Larry Koopa's attacks, which include high jumps and wand shots. Jump on him or hit him with about six fireballs. After the initial hits, he will spin in his shell, which is immune to fireballs and damages Mario if jumped on. Continue dodging until he reverts to his original pattern. Defeat him by jumping on him twice more or hitting him with 12 more fireballs. Save your progress after the fight.

World 1-4

Hit goombas, grab an Ice Flower and coins, then enter the pipe. Swim past cheep cheeps and urchins, using Ice Flowers to freeze enemies. Navigate bubble jets and more cheep cheeps to reach the midway flag. Freeze a cheep cheep to reach the first Star Coin. Grab coins from clams, get another Ice Flower, and freeze a cheep cheep below the second Star Coin to ride an ice cube up to it. Freeze an urchin to block a bubble jet and grab the third Star Coin below. Enter the green pipe for 1-Up Mushrooms from clams. Take a Fire Flower and a Power Star, then swim up the next pipe. Decide whether to trade for an Ice Flower, watch out for spiky cheep cheeps, grab a 1-Up Mushroom from a clam, and enter the final pipe. Bounce off a koopa to reach the goal.

World 1 - Goomba Battle

In this map screen battle, jump on giant goombas, which split into smaller ones. Fireballs prevent splitting. Collect eight toad icons to make the goombas disappear and receive three Super Mushrooms from a chest.

World 1-5

Jump across rotating squares, wall-jumping if needed. Hit an item box for a Propeller Mushroom. Spin jump to a ledge above blocks on tracks. Slide to hit bricks, revealing a beanstalk. Climb up, collect coins, and reveal hidden coin blocks below the first Star Coin by jumping down. Ride a spinning block to reach the Star Coin. Follow the arrow back down. Jump over green cubes, collect coins, and jump left to a corner for the second Star Coin. Jump onto giant screws nearby.
