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

Blocks first appear in the level [[Bandit's Way]] in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Many individuals have traveled to Bandit's Way to see the blocks for themselves.<ref>Pelland, Scott, and Kent Miller. ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' Player's Guide. Page 22. "''The curious travel from all over to experience Bandit Way's gravity-defying platforms. The scientific principle behind these marvels remain unknown.''"</ref>
