World 7-4 is the fourth level of Pipe Land in Super Mario Bros. 3. It becomes accessible after the player has cleared World 7-3 and its own completion unlocks the first World 7-Fortress, as well as the first World 7-Piranha Plant.
Layout[edit]
The player starts next to some Warp Pipes on the side of a large blue wall, which lead to the underwater section of the level. Behind the wall, and only accessible with a flight power-up, is a hidden area with two ? Blocks containing 1-Up Mushrooms.
Entering the Warp Pipes will take the player to an autoscrolling underwater section with several Spiny Cheep-Cheeps which move through the barriers throughout the level and Lava Lotuses placed on the ground. Shortly after the first ? Block, Big Berthas and Scattering Bloobers will start appearing, with Big Berthas usually placed in confined areas and Scattering Bloobers usually in open ones. Around the point when the first Scattering Bloober shows, the stage will start scrolling up then resume moving horizontally through a field of nothing but Jelectros that slightly bob up and down, with another Big Bertha and two Scattering Bloober at the end of the group. Spiny Cheep-Cheeps will appear throughout the rest of the level and player will encounter another Big Bertha and one final Lava Lotus before the pipe leading to the goal.
