'''Star World''' is the secret eighth [[world]] of ''[[Super Mario World]]''. It can be reached by finding one of the five hidden [[Star Road (Super Mario World)|Star Road]]s.

The [[level]]s have different-colored [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s in them, and there is a [[Baby Yoshi]] in the beginning of a few of the levels so the player can exit the stage with a new ride.

To progress in Star World, the player needs to find the secret exit of each level, with the exception of [[Star World 5]]. Through finding Star Roads and clearing stages in Star World, the player can take shortcuts in completing the game. The Star Roads link to [[Donut Plains]], the [[Vanilla Dome]], an island downstream of the [[Twin Bridges]], the outer area of the [[Forest of Illusion]], and the [[Valley of Bowser]].

By finding the secret exit in Star World 5, another Star Road leading to the [[Special Zone]] can be accessed.

[[Star World (Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge)|Star World]] reappears in ''[[Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge]]''. The moon featured here now appears in the top right rather than the top left.

According to the Japanese Shogakukan guide for the game ''[[Yoshi (game)|Yoshi]]'', Star World played an instrumental role in the history of [[Yoshi's Island (place)|Yoshi's Island]]. Five shooting stars (implied to be the Star Road) came from the light of Star World one night, and one of them knocked the top half of a [[Yoshi's Egg|fossilized egg]] to its lower half inhabited by contemporary monsters, resulting in [[Yoshi]] hatching. These events also resulted in the resurrection of other [[dinosaur]]s, and the islands came to be known as [[Dinosaur Land]].<ref>「任天堂公式ガイドブック　ヨッシーのたまご」 (''Nintendo Kōshiki Guidebook – Yoshi's Egg''), pages [[:File:Yoshi no Tamago Shogakukan P7.jpg|7]], [[:File:Yoshi no Tamago Shogakukan P8.jpg|8]], [[:File:Yoshi no Tamago Shogakukan P9.jpg|9]], [[:File:Yoshi no Tamago Shogakukan 10.jpg|10]], [[:File:Yoshi no Tamago Shogakukan 11.jpg|11]].</ref>

[[File:SMWCartoonStarPath.png|left|thumb|200px|The Star Path as it appears in the ''Super Mario World'' television series]]

Star World appears in at least two episodes of the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' animated series]], although here it is referred to as the '''Star Path'''. Unlike in the game, the middle hill has a visible door, similar to the domes in [[Dome City]], and the course itself visibly has pipes and lacks the red course marks.
