Top Secret Area

The Top Secret Area is place filled with power-ups used by Mario and Luigi during the events of Super Mario World. The area is situated behind the Ghost House of the Donut Plains. To get into it, Mario or Luigi must be caped, then fly to the upper left area of the Ghost House and up a hole, go through the door, break the tape, and the area will be unlocked. The area itself contains two Fire Flowers, two Cape Feathers (when Small Mario hits the ? Blocks, he will get a Mushroom first), and a Yoshi Egg (an extra life appears if the player already has Yoshi). It contains no enemies, and can be accessed an infinite amount of times, allowing Mario and Luigi to acquire the maximum amount of extra lives. In the SNES version, the area has no Time Limit. In the GBA remake, the area has a time limit of 200 seconds.
