Each of the first six worlds of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' features at least one Enemy Course.  An enemy will patrol the world map, moving when the player dies or clears a level, and the player must fight it if they cross paths. Depending on where they meet, the arena and any block contents may change (ex.: meeting on a water tile in [[Water Land|World 3]] will have the ground submerged underwater). If the player wins this battle, they will be rewarded with an item, such as a [[Super Star|Starman]] or [[Music Box]].  In this game, Enemy Courses consist solely of [[Hammer Bro]]thers and their variants. These courses can be skipped if the player uses a Music Box, which puts them to sleep until the player clears a level and/or dies twice.

If the tens digit of the player's score and both digits of their coin count match upon clearing a level (zero does not count) in [[Grass Land]], Water Land, [[Sky Land]], or [[Ice Land]], a Hammer Brother Enemy Course will become a [[Treasure Ship]] (the prize for clearing the ship remains the same).

In [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|the GBA version]], once [[Completion|every level is beaten]], the Enemy Courses can be replayed indefinitely, and the player is not forced to enter them, though they will also move if the player visits a [[Toad House]] or [[Spade Panel]].
