1 UP Heart



1-Up Hearts basically perform the same function as 1-Up Mushrooms, that is, awarding one extra life to the player in Super Mario Land. However, unlike most Mushrooms, 1-Up Hearts will remain in one place until Mario grabs it, whereas the 1-Up Mushroom would slide away from Mario unless he could quickly catch it. However, in Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins, the 1-Up Heart moves like the 1-Up Mushroom. In fourth stage of Macro Zone, the 1-Up Hearts could be caught by Pumpkin Zone's witch boss, who ran away from Mario with them. These 1-Up Hearts also appeared in mini-games in both games.
