Bulrush Coming Through! is a course of Pipe-Rock Plateau in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. It is one of several levels that are part of an open area of the map unlocked after completing Scram, Skedaddlers!. It has a difficulty of one star and houses three Wonder Seeds.[1]

Layout

The level primarily centers on Hard Blocks and Bulrushes, which charge at the player and can break those blocks. The start of the level inmediately demonstrates this interaction, with the Bulrush clearing the Hard Blocks under a pair of ? Block for the player to hit, with one of them containing a Fire Flower. Past this are several tree platforms and Hard Blocks arranged in staircase-like structures, along with snail-like enemies and more Bulrushes. Throughout the level, luring Bulrushes into destroying Hard Blocks rewards the player with coins and flower coins.

Past the Checkpoint Flag, the player is introduced to Bulrushes jumping off of ramps, as well as tall mushroom-like enemies. Multiple red Warp Pipes are spread across this part of the level, blocking the path of charging Bulrushes. A number bubble is hidden inside a ? Block, and past it is a bed of spikes, with Hard Blocks over it serving as a bridge. After a few more trees and enemies, the Goal Pole can be found, with the top reachable by riding on top of a Bulrush as it jumps off a ramp.[2][3]

Wonder Flower

The level's Wonder Flower is located after the Checkpoint Flag, inside some glowing blocks floating in the air. The player should continue right to find a Bulrush which will leap towards the blocks, breaking them and revealing the Wonder Flower. Touching it will trigger the level's Wonder Effect, which causes a herd of Bulrushes to stampede the stage. The player can stand on them and follow them across their path. They will knock down the regular Goal Pole, taking the player to a large incline behind. The stampede will run up the incline to some Cloud Lifts and Cloud Blocks that player must jump on to find the Wonder Seed at the end.

10-flower coins

  • 10-flower coin 1: Trapped behind some blocks near the start. The player must first Ground Pound the tree next to them twice to lower it down to ground level, then lure the nearby Bulrush towards the blocks to break through them and get access to the coin.[2][3]
  • 10-flower coin 2: Immediately after the first red Warp Pipe is a tree with a Talking Flower on it. Ground Pounding the tree will cause it to rise. The player should continue to stand on the tree while it is rising to access a secret sky area. There, the player should progress across the cloud platforms while avoiding the purple cloud-like enemies to find the coin at the end.[2][3]
  • 10-flower coin 3: Trapped behind some blocks close to the end. The player must lure the Bulrush standing on a tree found earlier to break the blocks.[3]

Secret exit

If the player managed to reach the Wonder Seed from the Wonder Effect, the secret Goal Pole is located immediately afterwards and rewards the player with a secret third Wonder Seed. The Goal Pole here is notably much taller than usual.[2][3]

Enemies
