List of Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition course types

Each course in Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition has a certain configuration of Orbs on the Orb field. All six types of Orbs can appear at once, though some courses may disable elemental Orbs or even Heart Orbs. This page lists all course types, with all combinations of Orb configurations.

3-Color
3-Color Courses have three elemental Orbs alongside Heart Orbs on the Orb field. They are the easiest course types to make Combos with, and players can take advantage of the Yoshis' Helper Skills to raise their party's ATK by 3x with little difficulty.

4-Color
4-Color Courses have four elemental Orbs on the Orb field. This course type is more difficult to make Combos with than 3-Color Course types. Players can take advantage of the Winged Yoshis' Helper Skills to raise their party's ATK by 4x with little difficulty.

Heartless
Heartless Courses have no Heart Orbs on the Orb field whatsoever. There may either be four elemental Orbs on the Orb Field or all of them -- there are no 3-Color Heartless Courses. Players that use an offensive play style may find these course types easier as there are no Heart Orbs in the way to make Combos with.

Normal
Normal Courses have all Orb types on the field. They are the most difficult course type to make Combos with.
