Count-Lift

Count-Lifts (or Countdown Platforms ) are a type of lift appearing in Super Mario World. They have a grassy top and a dirt-like bottom. Each Count-Lift has a countdown timer in the middle. Count-Lifts appear in only one level: Valley of Bowser 3. When Mario or Luigi jumps onto a Count-Lift, it moves in a straight line to the right while counting down. When the timer reaches zero, the lift drops off. Most Count-Lifts last for only one second, but some last for four seconds.

A Count-Lift also appears in the Modern version of Turtle Bridge from Game & Watch Gallery 3. When Toad accumulates 300 points, the platform below the Cloud Blocks turns into a three-second Count-Lift. Unlike in Super Mario World, the Count-Lift is pink and does not move to the right while counting down. It reappears shortly after it falls. If Toad jumps onto or stays on the Count-Lift as it falls, he will lose a life. At 600 points, the Count-Lift turns into two Donut Blocks.
