'''Towers''' (called '''fortresses''' in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''<ref>''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' instruction booklet, page 9.</ref> | '''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. | 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.

At the end of the fortresses | At the end of the fortresses, there is a boss fight with the [[Koopalings|Koopaling]] of that world. After defeating it, it flees to the [[castle]] at the end of its respective world for a rematch. In the last tower, instead of a Koopaling, [[Kamek|Magikoopa]] is fought instead. After defeating him, he flees to the Airship. However, he is not fought there again. | ||
