PrinceWatercress plays Super Mario Bros. 2 - Part 4 of 7


World 4 takes place in a land of ice and snow...and Fryguy is waiting to burn our heroes up.

World 4-1


Aside from the ice physics of this world, you'll meet another new enemy here: the Flurries. They're like the Shyguys, but they are a bit fast and they will chase after you. There will also be a few Trouters here.

The mushrooms are in the first part of this world. In the part with the two platforms with the plant at the bottom level, get the plant to get a potion and place it on the upper platform. On that platform will be a mushroom. The other one is at the end of the section; get the potion there and drop it where you found it for the other mushroom.

After grabbing a plant and pulling out a rocket, you'll be in another section. Here, you'll meet up with a new enemy: the Autobomb. The Autobombs move back and forth and shoot fireballs out of their cannons every so often. Sometimes Shyguys ride on them; feel free to grab the Shyguy and use them as a weapon.

Believe it or not, Birdo doesn't show up here.

World 4-2


At the beginning, you'll climb up a vine, then you'll have to deal with a ton of Beezos while making your way to a door. When you make it inside, you'll be above the ocean with a couple of whales. Their blowholes will shoot out water that can be used as platforms, but the stream of water and the underside of the platform can hurt you, so be careful. 

The left-most whale has a mushroom; use the potion you find there, as the mushroom will be on the tail. If you take the potion to the pot on the platform, however, you can warp to World 6 if you go down it after entering the door you just made.

For the next part, you'll need to ride an Autobomb across a spike pit in order to not die. If you take a potion to the other side, you can get the other mushroom. Watch out for the Porcupos.

At the end is another battle with a Red Birdo.

World 4-3


At the start, get the potion above the door and take it all the way to the left for a mushroom. From there, go back to the door and go to the right of Birdo. Wait for Birdo to spit an egg, then jump on it and ride it. Do not grab it unless you want to die in the water. At the other end will be the entrance to a tower. (You can skip the rest of the level with Peach's floating ability, but we're not doing that here.)

Make your way up the tower, watching out for Flurries - and a spike pit - as you go. At the top, you'll enter a door. If you pick up the potion to the right after going out, then go left, jump up the cloud platforms and take it to the right-most edge of the other tower, you can easily get the other mushroom. 
Enter the other tower and use the red Shyguy to get over the spike pit, then drop down and enter the door at the bottom. Get the key, then carefully and quickly take it all the way down to the locked door. After a run to the right, you'll be able to grab the orb and face Fryguy, the World 4 boss.

Use the mushroom blocks to attack Fryguy as he flies around and spits out fireballs. After a few hits, he splits into four smaller fireballs that jump around. Carefully throw the mushroom blocks at the four smaller flames to end the battle.
