Brick Blocks have made an appearance in nearly every game of the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]] to date. As their name implies, they are designed to resemble sections of a brick wall. | ||
In most ''Super Mario'' games since ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', [[Mario]] or any other character can break this block only in their [[Super Mario (form)|Super form]] or higher tiered variants of the Super form, such as the [[Fire Mario|Fire form]] or [[Tanooki Mario|Tanooki form]]. Brick Blocks can be broken in many ways (usually just by [[jump]]ing into them from below); they give the player ten [[point]]s (50 in ''Super Mario Bros.'' and its derivatives). If [[Small Mario|Small]] or [[Mini Mario (form)|Mini Mario]] hits a Brick Block, it just bounces up slightly. However, if Brick Blocks contain an item, they work just like [[? Block]]s, as the item pops out and the block turns into an [[Empty Block]]. Regardless, any enemies walking on the block will be injured. In ''Super Mario Bros.'' and the [[New Super Mario Bros. (disambiguation)|''New Super Mario Bros.'' series]], Brick Blocks' colors change to fit those of their environment (blue while underground, gray/white in [[castle]]s, red in volcanic areas, etc.) | In most ''Super Mario'' games since ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', [[Mario]] or any other character can break this block only in their [[Super Mario (form)|Super form]] or higher tiered variants of the Super form, such as the [[Fire Mario|Fire form]] or [[Tanooki Mario|Tanooki form]].

In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', generic [[Block (Super Mario 64)|block]]s are re-skinned to resemble brick blocks, though they behave the same as in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. A different visual change is given to [[crate]]s, however. They can be broken by most of [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and [[Wario]]'s attacks. There is also a large black variation of the block that can be broken only by Wario (although any player character can break it with the help of a [[Super Mushroom|mushroom]]). [[Yoshi]] cannot break any of them unless he is under the effects of a mushroom. | In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', generic [[Block (Super Mario 64)|block]]s are re-skinned to resemble brick blocks, though they behave the same as in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''.

Certain Brick Blocks hide [[Tail Wheel]]s, which have the platforms they are on ascend when spun. Additionally, a Brick Block-like enemy known as the [[Fake Block]] is introduced. These enemies camouflage themselves with regular Brick Blocks, and attack when the player approaches them. [[Blokkablok]]s also have spiked Brick Blocks as segments; unlike normal Brick Blocks, theirs can be broken by Small Mario. | ||

In ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', bricks often appear in the background. Some are used as destructible platforms, though. In "[[A Toadally Magical Adventure]]", rebelling [[pipe creatures]] that [[Toad]] made use the wand they stole to make a pile of bricks act like [[Pile Driver Micro-Goomba]]s. In "[[Super Koopa (episode)|Super Koopa]]", Mario calls a brick holding a [[Super Leaf]] a "'''Super Block'''". | In ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', bricks often appear in the background.

Although Dr. Koopa Troopa's skill involves less blocks compared to Dr. Wendy, it is compensated by a lower skill meter to allow for potentially more uses of the skill.
