Glitches

  • The Minus World

    The Minus World was a glitch in the original game. To reach the level, stand on the pipe in World 1-2 that takes you to the flagpole. Break the 2nd and 3rd blocks from the right. Then, face left and jump. Hit the back of your head on the left side of the brick next to the pipe. If you do it right, you should be pulled through the wall. Quickly jump into the left pipe to enter the Minus World, which has no exit. If you wait too long, however, you'll end up in World 4.

Secrets

  • Fireworks

    If you touch the end flagpole with a 1,3, or 6 in the ones column (example 091, 243, or 256) you will get fireworks equal to that number (1,3, or 6) and 500 points for each.

  • Warp Zone to World 5

    In World 4-2, proceed to the end and run over and past the end pipe by taking a platform earlier in the level and jumping onto the ceiling. After passing over the pipe to the end of the level, you will find a lone pipe being the warp zone to world 5.

  • Warp Zone to Worlds 2,3, and 4

    In World 1-2, proceed to the end and take the up moving platforms and jump on the bricks to your right and run over the end pipe, all the way to the right. You will be in a warp zone where you can go to world 2,3, or 4 by warping down the desired pipe.
