| | The '''Forest of Illusion''' is the fifth world of [[Dinosaur Land]] in the game ''[[Super Mario World]]''. The forest contains one fortress, one [[Ghost House]], one [[Star Road (Super Mario World)|Star Road]], the [[Blue Switch Palace]], and many secret paths. The world can be challenging, since beating the regular exits will only take the player in a circle, hence the name. To find the way out of the forest, the player needs to find the secret exit in one level. Forest Secret Area, #5 Roy's Castle, and Forest Fortress are the only levels without multiple exits. When any level is beaten, in addition to a path appearing, trees will disappear. |

| The '''Forest of Illusion''' is the fifth [[world]] in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. It is the eastern portion of [[Dinosaur Land]] and is part of the same landmass as [[Cookie Mountain]], which is the northeastern part of the map. The forest contains one [[fortress]], one [[Ghost House]], one [[Star Road (Super Mario World)|Star Road]], the [[Blue Switch Palace]], and many secret paths. | |
|
| |
|
| This world is unique in that finding the regular exits only takes the player in a circle, hence its name. To find the way out of the forest, the player needs to find the secret exit in one level. [[Forest Secret Area]], [[5 Roy's Castle|#5 Roy's Castle]], and [[Forest Fortress]] are the only [[level]]s without multiple exits. When any level is beaten, in addition to a path appearing, trees disappear.
| | It is part of the same landmass as [[Cookie Mountain]]. |
|
| |
|
| A world in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' known as [[Soda Jungle]] features a similar haunted area. In this area, the player must beat a level via the secret exit to create a pathway that will allow the player to proceed through the world.

| | The Forest of Illusion was featured in several episodes of the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' animated series]], though here it was renamed the '''Enchanted Forest''' and had a much more sinister appearance, being darker and with more horrific faces on the forest's trees and bushes. |
| A forest named '''Enchanted Forest''', possibly the Forest of Illusion, is featured in the episode "[[Ghosts 'R' Us]]" from the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' animated series]], where it is the main setting and the greater location of [[Wizenheimer]]'s haunted house.
| |
|
| |
|
| Similar forested areas are also seen in the episodes "[[King Scoopa Koopa]]," "[[The Yoshi Shuffle]]," and "[[Mama Luigi]]," appearing closer to the Forest of Illusion's in-game appearance. The distinctive trees with faces also often appear in the background in several episodes. Here, some of them more closely resemble coconut trees, and their faces lack cheeks. In "[[Party Line]]," one of the trees is used to send the [[Wiggler|caterpillar]]s into space.
| | The Enchanted Forest first appeared in the episode "[[Ghosts 'R' Us]]" where it is the main setting of the episode and was revealed to be owned by [[Wizenheimer]]; what could also be the Enchanted Forest was also in the episodes "[[King Scoopa Koopa]]" and "[[Mama Luigi]]". |
| | |
| In ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', there is an additional sprite for a larger variant of the trees more clearly showing that the cheeks are actually the [[Fruit (Yoshi food)|fruit]] item.
