Super Mario Bros. Wonder courses

Bulrush Express is a course in Super Mario Bros. Wonder , found in Pipe-Rock Plateau. It is accessed after completing Wiggler Race Mountaineering!. This course contains a Wonder Bulrush herd, which stampede during the Wonder Effect. This course contains three Wonder Seeds, with a secret exit that leads to Sproings in the Twilight Forest. The difficulty of this course is four stars.

Layout[edit ]

The course starts with a Bulrush rushing towards another one on top of spikes, allowing easy access to the red pipe. Entering said pipe, the Wonder Flower is immediately present. The player is forced to collect it as the camera does not move until the Wonder Effect has been activated. This Wonder Effect releases a Wonder Bulrush herd, similar to the Wonder Effect found in Bulrush Coming Through!, and spawns a poison tide, subjecting the player to stay on the Wonder Bulrushes the entire course. Throughout the course, various P Switches can be found which spawn Blue Coins. Given the difficulty, this was likely done so that the player can get extra lives easily. Swirlypods are the main obstacle of the course. After some jumps done by the herd, the player is faced with a wall of hard blocks, blocking the path, with the only option being to use the Red POW Blocks scattered around. After that, breaking blocks becomes a recurring idea done by the Wonder Bulrush herd. Shortly after, the herd comes to an exit, and the player needs to jump on some Semisolid Platforms guarded by normal Bulrushes, while the poison tide is still rising. The Wonder Seed is then found above.

10-flower coins [edit ]

Hidden goal[edit ]

Near the Wonder Seed at the right, there is a Brick Block-filled wall. The player needs to get through the course and use either Elephant Mario to smash the Brick Blocks, Drill Mario to dig through the ground and pass the wall, or a Swirlypod Shell [derived] acquired earlier in the course. After an entrance to a yellow pipe, the hidden goal is found.

Talking Flowers' quotes[edit ]

  • Huh? (close to the normal goal)
    • Why'd you come this way?
  • Nice job! (close to the secret exit)
    • You came the cool way!
