Learn how to easily defeat Goombas, one of the most common enemies in Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. Find out where they appear and the best strategies to take them down.
Alright, let's talk about Goombas! These guys are the classic Mario baddies, and you'll see them pretty much everywhere. They're usually the first enemy you encounter, and they're pretty harmless, but it's good to know how to deal with them efficiently, especially when you're just starting out in Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury.
You'll run into Goombas in tons of levels. Some of the early ones include Super Bell Hill, Koopa Troopa Cave, and Mount Beanpole. They also show up in later worlds and even in Bowser's Fury on levels like Scamper Shores and Slipskate Slope. Honestly, if you're playing any level, there's a good chance a Goomba or two will be waddling around.
The best way to handle a Goomba is super simple: just jump on its head! A single stomp will take care of it. If you've got a power-up like the Super Bell (that's the cat suit), you can also just run into them or use a spin attack. They don't really have any special attacks or defenses, so as long as you don't just walk into them, you'll be fine.
- Don't underestimate them! While they're easy, sometimes they appear in tricky spots or in large groups, so always be aware of your surroundings.
- If you're playing with friends, try to coordinate stomps to clear them out quickly!
- Remember, stomping a Goomba gives you a little height boost, which can be useful for reaching slightly higher platforms or collectibles.
