'''Towers''' (called '''fortresses''' in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'')<ref>''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' instruction booklet, page 9.</ref> are a type of level appearing in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' sub-series. They are more or less the equivalent of the [[fortress]]es from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Unlike most fortresses, in which the player may have to progress from left to right or vertically, towers exclusively feature vertical direction. One appears midway through every [[world]] (except for [[World 6 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 6]] and [[World 8 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8]] from ''New Super Mario Bros.'' as well as [[Rock-Candy Mines]] from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', which have two). The challenge of towers generally depends more on traps and obstacles than [[List of enemies|enemies]].

Starting from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', some worlds have no towers whatsoever. [[World 9 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9]] of ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', the Special Worlds of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', [[Peach's Castle#New Super Mario Bros. U|Peach's Castle]] and [[Superstar Road]] of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' are examples.
