World 8 (Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition)

World 8 is the eight world in Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition. This world takes place in an ominous valley, resembling Dark Land from Super Mario Bros. 3, with dark clouds in the world's crevices, and using the music of Princess Peach's Castle from New Super Mario Bros. U. Like other worlds in the game, Orbs are scattered about the map. This world consists of eighteen levels and a Toad House. Bowser is the boss of this world and is fought in his castle, and joins up with the Koopalings and Bowser Jr. as the final boss of the game. Clearing this world unlocks Bowser and Princess Peach as Helpers, an expansion of the Lucky ? Blocks spot in Toad Houses, and the Special Worlds in the game.

A more difficult version of World 8 exists as a Special World: ★World 8.

Upon reaching the branching path in the Ghost House, the player may notice a Gold Brick to the right of the purple Warp Pipe and the sign. By hitting the block, the player can access a secret area, which leads to the secret exit of this course. In order to use the block, however, the player will need to clear more Light Orbs than both Water Orbs and Dark Orbs. However, this course does not contain any Light Orbs, so the player must bring an ally that can create Light Orbs. Upon defeating the boss at the end of the secret path, the player will unlock World 8-3.

World 8-6
To reach the secret exit in this course, the player must first reach the branching path (where there is a signpost and a green Warp Pipe). The player must clear more Wood Orbs than Water Orbs. Taking the green Warp Pipe and going through the underwater section, the player will find another branching path (a sign and a green Warp Pipe). The player must clear more Dark Orbs than Wood Orbs. However, the course does not contain any Dark Orbs, so the player will have to bring an ally that can create Dark Orbs. Upon defeating the boss at the end of the secret path, the player will unlock World 8-7.

World 8-11
Upon reaching the branching path in the course, the player may notice a Gold Brick to the left of the two signs pointing straight ahead and a red Warp Pipe. To reach the secret exit in this course, the player will need to clear more Water Orbs than both Dark Orbs and Fire Orbs. However, this course does not contain any Water Orbs, so the player must bring an ally that can create Water Orbs. Upon defeating the boss at the end of the secret path, the player will unlock World 8-.
