Enemy Guide: Every Enemy and Hazard in Mario.Game Adventure

Mario.Game Adventure has a small cast of enemies, but each one asks you to do something different. Here's how to deal with all of them.

Walker

The brown mushroom-shaped foot soldier. It walks in one direction and turns around when it hits a wall. Stomp it by landing on it from above, or hit the block it is standing on from below. Worth 100 points for the first stomp in a chain.

Koopa

The turtle. Stomping it makes it hide in its shell. Touch the still shell to kick it: a sliding shell knocks over every enemy in its path, with growing chain points — but it also bounces off walls and can come back at you. Kicking a shell is worth 400 points.

Spiny

The red, spiky shell. You cannot stomp a Spiny — landing on it hurts you. Jump over it, avoid it, or defeat it with a fireball, a kicked shell or a Starman. Spinies appear from World 2 onward, often in groups.

Piranha Plant

Lives inside some pipes and rises up and down on a timer. It cannot be stomped. Wait until it sinks before jumping onto or over its pipe. Fireballs work while it is out.

Fire bar

A chain of fireballs rotating around a block, found in the Lava Castle. It cannot be destroyed. Watch the rotation direction and pass when the bar swings away from your path. Some bars turn clockwise, some counter-clockwise, at different speeds.

Lava and pits

Falling into a pit or touching lava costs a life no matter how powerful you are. In the castle, lava pits get wider as you go — the long one has a stone island in the middle.

The Lava Castle boss

The final enemy guards the bridge at the end of World 4-2. It walks back and forth, jumps and breathes fireballs that fly across the room. You have three ways to win:

1. Fireballs — it takes five hits.
2. Starman — each touch while invincible counts as a hit.
3. The axe — run under it while it jumps and touch the axe at the end of the bridge. The bridge collapses and the boss falls into the lava.

Defeating the boss is worth 5,000 points.
