Goomba Tower

Goomba Towers are Goombas stacked on top of each other (ranging anywhere from stacks of 2 to stacks of 10) that appear in Super Mario 3D Land. Goomba Towers attack by running at the player and attempting to hit him or her in a similar fashion to individual Goombas. Goomba Towers can be shortened or defeated depending on how many Goombas the stack has. For example, attacking jumping on a stack of 4 will reduce it to a stack of 3, and so on. Alternatively, they can be killed all at once with a Ground Pound or as Statue Mario in statue form. They can be defeated one-at-a-time by being jumped on, being hit with a fireball, or whacking them with Tanooki or Statue Mario's tail.
