'''World D-4''' is the fourth and final level of [[World D]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' and the twentieth and final secret level overall in said game, as well as the final level in the game overall. Like with [[World 8-4 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 8-4]], lightning flashes in the background of the level and the level's title card in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''.

==Layout==
The player starts in a room similar to that the one at the start of 8-4. The player has to jump across a pit of [[lava]] while avoiding a long [[Fire Bar|Fire-Bar]], then while avoiding another Fire-Bar at the end of the corridor, the player can find a power-up in a [[Hidden Block]] against the wall. Jumping across a lava pit with a [[Lava Bubble|Podoboo]] jumping out and avoiding the next Fire-Bar, the player then has to bounce off of a [[Koopa Paratroopa]] and avoid pipes with [[Piranha Plant]]s, along with [[Cheep Cheep|Cheep-cheep]]s that jump out of the lava until the player reaches the next hall. After a falling [[lift]] and a Fire-Bar, the player will find a [[Warp Pipe]] at the end of the hallway.

The next area is an overworld area, with the first enemy being a charging [[Hammer Bro]]ther. After the second pipe with a Piranha Plant, [[wind]] will begin blowing. The player will next encounter two Koopa Paratroopas, two [[Blooper|Bloober]]s, another Piranha Plant, and a hidden [[Poison Mushroom]] before a flight of stairs, which the wind will stop blowing beforehand. After a jump across a large pit, the player will find a Warp Pipe with a Piranha Plant.

The third area is a simple underground chamber with [[coin]]s and a [[Coin Block]] above the start of the third row of coins.

The fourth and final area has the player return to the castle, where they will encounter a [[fake Bowser|fake]] [[Fire Breath|fire-breathing]] [[Bowser's Brother]] (or in the case of ''All-Stars'' the actual Bowser's Brother who only throws [[hammer]]s). Above him is a row of [[? Block|?]]s, with the fifth from the right containing a power-up. The next Warp Pipe with the Piranha Plant and Bloobers surrounding it will take the player back to the start of the level. After the pipe is a Hammer Brother, followed by a narrow passage that the player will have to [[crouch]] and slide through if they are in a [[Super Mario (form)|Super]] or [[Fire Mario|Fire]] form. Using a lift to get up over a ledge, the player then has to time a fall into a narrow passage while avoiding a Podoboo. Finally, the player will encounter a [[fake Bowser]], who throws breathes fire and has a Fire-Bar above him (in ''All-Stars'', this was replaced by the actual Bowser himself who only throws hammers). Upon defeating him or touching the [[axe|ax]], the player will save [[Princess Peach]] and complete the game.
