Overview

The Forest Secret Area in Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2

The level is a large pit that can be crossed over by two Flying Platforms; jumping on either platform triggers the level to scroll, and both platforms ascend and descend alternately. Koopa Paratroopas roam the sky and congregate in flocks, guarding various intermittent power-ups and Dragon Coins. About halfway through the ride, the player comes to a small island of Blue Blocks where an extra life can be earned inside a Rotating Block. Shortly after, just beyond the Giant Gate rest three 1-Up Mushrooms that can be reached by flying over the Giant Gate with a Cape Feather or Blue Yoshi or by jumping off Yoshi when one of the Flying Platforms reaches the highest point at the goal.
