(In-game, Dr. Topper and the Rose Way sign call them "blocks" in the English version (in Japanese, boards, though they still resemble flat blocks anyway).)

A '''Board'''<ref>''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' English instruction booklet, pg. 16</ref>, also called a '''block''', is a square-shaped yellow platform that hovers above the ground. It is found in the game ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Boards usually come in pairs. When [[Mario]] jumps on one of the platforms the other one revolves around it. When Mario jumps to the next Board, the platform he was previously standing one begins to revolve around the one he is currently standing on. Thus, these platforms can be used to cross [[lava]]-filled rooms or to reach [[Treasure Chest|Treasure Boxes]] that are too high for Mario to reach with his jumping ability. Not all Boards move the same speed; some move fast while others move slow. As such, Mario has to plan his jumps accordingly.

A '''block''', also known as a '''tile''' or '''Board''',<ref>''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' English instruction booklet, page 16.</ref> is a yellow square-shaped panel that hovers above the ground and functions as a platform in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. Blocks usually come in pairs. When [[Mario]] jumps onto one of the blocks, the other revolves around it. When Mario [[jump]]s to the next one, the platform he was previously standing on begins to revolve around the one he is currently standing on. Thus, these platforms can be used to cross [[lava]]-filled rooms or to reach [[treasure chest|treasure box]]es that are too high for Mario to reach with his jumping ability. Not all blocks move at the same speed; some move quickly, while others move slowly. As such, Mario has to plan his jumps accordingly.


Other boards that do not move in this way occasionally appear, such as in [[Dr. Topper]]'s Room and [[Rose Way]].

Boards first appeared in the level [[Bandit's Way]] in the world [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Many individuals have traveled to Bandit's Way to see the Boards for themselves.<ref name="page 22">''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' Nintendo Player's Guide, page 22.</ref>

Boards closely resemble the [[Rotating Block]]s of ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and the [[Bike Pad]]s of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''.
