==Locations/Chapters==
Lineland's Chapter 1-1 pays a homage to the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' with its level design, which resembled the classic [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]] through its positioning of items, [[? Block]]s, and enemies like [[Goomba]]s. The music is also remixed from the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' overworld theme and the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' overworld theme. In this chapter, Mario learns the [[Flip]] technique from the wizard [[Bestovius]].
*'''[[Lineland Road]]''' ('''Chapter 1-1: The Adventure Unfolds''') is a grassy plain populated with many different species, though oddly enough most are not native to the dimension. It is also home to [[Bestovius]], the wizard that teaches [[Mario]] how to flip.
*'''[[Mount Lineland]]''' ('''Chapter 1-2: Afoot in the Foothills''') is a mountain that houses [[Yold Town]], as well as [[Thoreau]] the [[Pixl]].

*'''[[Yold Ruins]]''' ('''Chapter 1-4: Monster of the Ruins''') is where Mario and his Pixls had to explore before meeting [[Fracktail]] and getting the [[Pure Heart]].


==Chapter 1-1: The Adventure Unfolds==
In Chapter 1-2, Mario traverses a huge mountain and ends up at [[Yold Town]]. There, he meets the [[Pixl]] [[Thoreau]]. In Chapter 1-3, Mario journeys through a hostile desert and battles [[Count Bleck]]'s thug, [[O'Chunks]], for the first time.
In the first section of this level, Mario has to make his way to the far right of the section. On Mario's way to the far right of the section, he will see the game's first enemies, a [[Goomba]] and a [[Squiglet]]. He will also encounter the game's first [[Brick Block]]s, the game's first [[Question Block]]s, and the game's first [[Warp Pipe]]s. He will also see a seemingly blocked off door. When Mario gets to the far right of this section, he will see [[Bestovius]]'s house. He will also encounter a [[Save Block]] there. When Mario enters Bestovius's house, he will see that the room he enters does not contain another door. When [[Tippy]] notices that Mario is stuck, she will give him a short tutorial on how to use her [[Tattle]] ability. Mario successfully uses this ability on a wall in the seemingly empty room, discovering a door in the process. When Mario enters this door, he will meet Bestovius.


Upon meeting Bestovius, Mario will ask him if he can provide him with the [[Flip]] ability, an ability that enables Mario to flip between 2-D and 3-D. Bestovius will then be sceptical about the offer, saying that Mario is not the real hero that the [[Light Prognosticus]] has predicted to appear. To ensure that Mario is the hero, he asks him to pay a fee of ten thousand [[Coin]]s. Mario will decline this offer, whereupon Bestovius will lower the price to all Coins Mario currently has. Should Mario decline the offer yet another time, the ability will not cost anything at all.
In the final level, Mario moves through mysterious ruins, discovering many secrets left by the [[Tribe of Ancients|Ancients]]. After surfacing, Mario meets [[Fracktail]], a robotic guardian that protects the [[Pure Heart]]. [[Dimentio]] strikes Fracktail's antenna, resulting in a malfunction that causes Fracktail to attack Mario. He serves as Lineland's Chapter Boss. After destroying Fracktail, Mario meets [[Merlumina]], the ghost of an Ancient, who tells Mario a bit of the Light Prophecy before surrendering the second Pure Heart.

==Chapters/Locations==
Upon receiving this ability, Mario will be able to proceed through the seemingly blocked off door, which will take him to the second portion of this stage. While there, he has to use the flipping ability to pass an otherwise insurmountable Warp Pipe. He will also see the game's first [[Koopa Troopa]]s. When there, he will also be able to grab the [[Catch Card]] for Goombas. Afterwards, he will be faced with a gap too large for him to leap over. He will then have to utilise the Flip ability once again to find that there is a pathway in the background, which Mario will pass. He will then encounter the game's first [[Sproing-Oing]], and the game's first [[Squig]].

Upon making it to the third section of the level, Mario will encounter some high walls. He can chose between either jumping on the Brick Blocks that are positioned before a wall, or to Flip to 3-D. If he chooses the second alternative, he will see that there are several Squiglets hiding behind each wall.

Lineland is the setting of Chapter 1 in Super Paper Mario. Its skies are full of strange, surreal mathematical formulas, such as (translated into literary form) "Fire Flower is greater than or equal to some kind of Block divided by Warp Pipe."

Lineland's Chapter 1-1 pays a homage to the original Super Mario Bros. with its level design, which resembled the classic World 1-1 through its positioning of items, ? Blocks, and enemies like Goombas. The music is also remixed from the Super Mario Bros. overworld theme and the Super Mario World overworld theme. In this chapter, Mario learns the Flip technique from the wizard Bestovius.

In Chapter 1-2, Mario traverses a huge mountain and ends up at Yold Town. There, he meets the Pixl Thoreau. In Chapter 1-3, Mario journeys through a hostile desert and battles Count Bleck's thug, O'Chunks, for the first time.

In the final level, Mario moves through mysterious ruins, discovering many secrets left by the Ancients. After surfacing, Mario meets Fracktail, a robotic guardian that protects the Pure Heart. Dimentio strikes Fracktail's antenna, resulting in a malfunction that causes Fracktail to attack Mario. He serves as Lineland's Chapter Boss. After destroying Fracktail, Mario meets Merlumina, the ghost of an Ancient, who tells Mario a bit of the Light Prophecy before surrendering the second Pure Heart.
