KO Arena Fungi Funk is a KO Arena level in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. It is found in Fungi Mines, and it is unlocked by completing Another Uncharted Area: Swaying Ruins. This level has the player fighting off against several Boos, Tailies, Noknoks and Wubbas throughout the level. This level has one Wonder Seed, and depending on how quickly the player clears the level, they can be rewarded with 10-flower coins.
The player starts in an area where they can choose power-ups, either a Fire Flower, Elephant Fruit, Bubble Flower or Drill Mushroom. The items are endless, so the player can take as many as they need. A pipe above the center leads to the first battle area.
The first battle area has eleven Boos scattered about a swampy area, as well as two hanging lights on tracks. Pulling from a nearby handle, will cause the lights to move, and slowly wind back up to their original position once it is released. A Light-Switch is present to turn the lights on. The player must use these elements to defeat the Boos, luring them into the light or moving it to their position. After all of the Boos are defeated, the gate to the pipe leading to the second battle area will unlock.
The second battle area has six Tailies running across a ceiling of small pipes. They will drop Spike Balls onto the green Mushroom Platforms below causing them to rise by two tiles, then slowly sink back into position after a short while. After all six Tailies are defeated, the gate to the pipe leading to the third battle area will unlock.
The third battle area is a Ghost House with two Noknoks hidden between a plethora of normal doors. The first is hidden behind the lowest door in the area below the bridge, reachable only by entering the door inmediately to the right of the entrance pipe, then going through the background section. The second Noknok is on the top right of the area, right above the entrance pipe. After both Noknoks are defeated, the gate to the pipe leading to the fourth battle area will unlock.
The fourth and final battle area has seven Wubbas crawling left and right through and on goo in a ruins-themed area. Two of them are hidden inside the ground, and will reveal themselves once the player approches them. After all seven Wubbas are defeated, the gate to the pipe leading to the goal will open.
The goal has five Talking Flowers that congratulate the player for clearing the challenge. If the player clears the battle quick enough, they can be rewarded with 10-flower coins from the above pipes. There is a treasure chest on the right of the room, which when opened spawns the Wonder Seed and the stage is cleared.
- 10-flower coin 1: 200 seconds
- 10-flower coin 2: 140 seconds
- 10-flower coin 3: 90 seconds
The finish, showing the time requirements for the 10-flower coins
