Thwomps, alongside other enemies such as [[Boo]]s and [[Dry Bones]], are some of the few ''Super Mario Bros. 3''-introduced enemies that keep appearing in later games. Thwomp itself makes a new appearance in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', now redesigned and recolored due to the expansion of the palette. Unlike old Thwomps, they are now gray-colored and have lost the prominent spike on top of their head; now all spikes look exactly the same and are the same size, relatively, while the Thwomps themselves are noticeably smaller. They reprise their role as the smashers and will try to squish Mario or [[Luigi]] without a second thought. Their speed is almost unaffected, and usually take a few seconds to rise up to their original place once again. This gives the player a chance to run below them. Unlike in the previous game, they now have more than one expression, peering down at the player's character when he approaches, and then taking on an enraged face when falling. | Thwomps, alongside other enemies such as [[Boo]]s and [[Dry Bones]], are some of the few ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''-introduced enemies that keep appearing in later games.

Thwomps have their first derived species in ''Super Mario World'' with the inclusion of [[Thwimp]]s. They are smaller versions of Thwomps that roam around in jumping arcs, usually in small hallways and often come in groups. Much like Thwomps, they are invincible and are usually only used as obstacles that slow the player down. | Thwomps have their first derived species in ''Super Mario World'' with the inclusion of [[Thwimp]]s.
