Speaking of that fortress... more levels in the game should be like that. It seems almost everything that's fun and exciting is optional.


Yeah, I also thought that that secret fortress was one of the best stages in the game... and that few other stages came close to being as good.

For other stages, I kind of liked the Vanilla Secret one where you jump across the dolphins. That was kind of fun, but not very challenging.

Some of the Special World stages were good. The second to last one had some potential to be challenging. On the other hand, that's yet another stage that you can fly completely over.

But that's almost it. I don't think Super Mario World is anywhere near the same league as Super Mario Bros. 3.
