'''Snake Blocks''' are [[block]]s usually found in castle-type levels. They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', and re-appear in ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the [[New Super Mario Bros. (disambiguation)|''New Super Mario Bros.'' games]], and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. In all games, they are a set of blocks that start out as a normal platform and begin to move like a snake when stepped on by [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]]. They resemble normal [[Block (used)|Used Block]]s in ''Super Mario World'', but resemble [[Rotating Blocks]] in ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'', and are bright green in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games and pink in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. Snake Blocks track across the screen, turning left, right up or down as they follow a pre-determined course over obstacles such as a wide pool of [[lava]], a bed of [[Spike (obstacle)|spike]]s, or a [[Pit (obstacle)|bottomless pit]]. Mario must continue to move and follow it when on these blocks, otherwise they will keep moving under Mario's feet, and he may possibly fall off.
