Variant of | Block |
Blocks,[1] also referred to as stone blocks,[2] are recurring objects in Super Mario Odyssey. Like the Hard Blocks of the 2D Super Mario series, blocks are typically too tough to be directly destroyed by Mario or Cappy, but strong enemies like Stairface Ogres and Bullet Bills can. Some of the blocks reward Mario with a Power Moon when broken, and are involved in puzzles. Most blocks rest on the ground, but a few found within sub-areas are suspended in the air like Brick Blocks and ? Blocks.
Block designs
Like many recurring objects in Super Mario Odyssey, blocks have different designs depending on the kingdom they are encountered in that reflect the local environment and culture.
