''Super Mario Bros.'' is divided into eight worlds, each of them containing four levels. Mario (or, in the case of a second player, his brother [[Luigi]]) has to get to the end of the level by jumping over various gaps and avoiding the enemies on his way. Mario can use several platforms (some of them collapse when Mario lands on them), stairs in the level, as well as [[Trampoline|Jumping Boards]]. There are also pipes along the way, some of which Mario can enter to visit various secret coin rooms before returning to the level, a bit further ahead than when he left.

Enemies include [[Goomba]]s, [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Buzzy Beetle]]s, [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s, [[Bullet Bill]]s, [[Hammer Bro]]thers, and leaping [[Cheep Cheep]]s. All these enemies can be defeated when Mario jumps on them. Koopa Troopas and Buzzy Beetles cower in their shell when jumped on, which Mario can kick to defeat other enemies with. Koopa Paratroopas lose their wings and fall to the ground when Mario jumps on them. Other enemies include [[Piranha Plant]]s, and the [[Spiny]]-throwing [[Lakitu]]s, and Mario has to either shoot fireballs at them or just avoid them. There are a few levels which take place underwater. In the water, Mario can swim freely from the top to the bottom of the screen. The enemies in underwater levels are [[Blooper]]s and [[Cheep Cheep]]s. Mario can only defeat these creatures by shooting them with [[fireball]]s.

At the end of each level, a castle stands with a [[flagpole]] nearby. When Mario reaches the flagpole, he takes down the enemy flag and enters the castle, completing the level. The higher the spot that Mario hits the flagpole, the more points he receives. If there are two players playing the game, Luigi's turn comes whenever Mario loses a life. Luigi has no special abilities in the game that are different from Mario's.

The fourth level of each world plays inside a castle. They are usually filled with [[Fire Bar]]s and [[Podoboo]]s. At the end of a castle level, Mario is confronted with a [[Bowser Impostor]] in Worlds 1 through 7 and the actual Bowser in World 8. Mario and Luigi ordinarily have no way to hurt the Bowser Impostors not the actual Bowser, and have to either use the [[axe]] to destroy the bridge, causing either the false or real one to fall into the [[lava]], or pelt him with a number of fireballs, which produces the same result and reveals the true forms of the fakes. After defeating an impostor, Mario frees one of the seven remaining [[Toad (species)|mushroom retainer]]s from the castle, at which point they say their iconic phrase: "Thank you, Mario! But our princess is in another castle!" At the end of the castle in World 8, Mario frees the grateful Princess Toadstool and completes his adventure, having the choice to continue playing in a "new quest." In this second quest, the player gets to choose a world, and replay some levels. However, all [[Goomba]]s are replaced by [[Buzzy Beetles]], all ground enemies are also considerably faster, some platforms and [[Elevator]]s are shortened in length, and the level design is slightly changed for some levels (see below at "Hard mode").
