3-Up Moon



3-Up Moons are moon-like items that only appear in Super Mario World. They are shaped like moons, have eyes, and can be found on the ground, however they are extremely rare. They have a similar effect as 1-Up Mushrooms, however they give Mario or Luigi three extra lives instead of one. Also, they can only be collected once, if the player replays the level, the moon will disappear from where it was.

They are also the only item in the Mario series that grants more than one life without fail.

In Mario Family, interestingly; there is a sewing design of this item in the game.
