In ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'', Subcon was in a storybook that the twin children Poki & Piki get pulled in by Wart. In fact, the reason [[World 7 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|Chapter 7]] is only two pages is due to the fact that the original ending was accidentally destroyed. This detail is lost in the ''Mario'' version of the game's events. | In ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'', Subcon was in a storybook that the twin children Poki & Piki get pulled in by Wart.

Subcon is the main setting of the game ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where the world was first available. Subcon was once a peaceful place until it was taken over by the tyrannical [[Wart]]. He created monsters with the [[Dream Machine]], and sent his army from the dream factory all around the land. The original inhabitants of Subcon were captured and imprisoned so that they would not interfere with his mischief. | Subcon is the main setting of the game ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where the world was first available.

Plants stick out throughout Subcon, which, when pulled, will give the character a [[vegetable]], [[1-Up Mushroom]], [[POW Block]], or, occasionally, a [[Bob-omb]]. A lot of the region of Subcon is high in the sky, as clouds would be considered "land". The dream world has many [[moon]]s at night as first seen in ''Super Mario All-Stars''. Subcon also has many recurring landscapes, such as grasslands, deserts with pyramids, snowy islands, and others. The only [[castle]] structure is Wart's factory, and no towns or cities are seen throughout the game. ''Super Mario All-Stars'' added jungle trees (Worlds 1, 3 & 5), mountains and Egyptian palaces in the desert distance (Worlds 2 & 6) and floating Greek-style temples (World 7) as background objects. According to ''BS Super Mario USA'', Subcon has a kingdom and a [[Ōsama|king]]. It is not known how much of Subcon is considered a true kingdom; if not the entirety of the dream world, [[World 7 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|seventh world]] in the clouds of Subcon above [[World 5 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|the grass]] or [[World 6 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|the desert region]] is probably the whole region of the kingdom itself. The factory from World 7-2 is actually the king's castle. | Plants stick out throughout Subcon, which, when pulled, will give the character a [[vegetable]], [[1-Up Mushroom]], [[POW Block]], or, occasionally, a [[Bob-omb|Bob-Omb]].
