''Super Mario World'' has a total of 96 [[level]]s, and unlike other games, some contain [[secret exit]]s, which open passages to new paths and secret levels. There is a two-player co-op mode in which the first player controls Mario and the second player controls Luigi. There is a world map like in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', except the player can now replay completed levels (excluding [[fortress]]es), which is required for levels with more than one [[exit]] and unlocking more paths on the world map.

After saving the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] go to [[Dinosaur Land]] for a vacation. While on the beach, however, they discover that [[Princess Peach]] has disappeared, and so the two brothers set out to find out who kidnapped her. While exploring a forest, they come across a large egg, from which a young dinosaur named Yoshi emerges: the latter informs the two brothers that his friends have been captured and imprisoned by the [[Koopa Troop]]. Mario and Luigi come to the conclusion that the culprits are [[Bowser]] and the [[Koopaling]]s. The three protagonists set out to find Yoshi's friends, scattered throughout the seven Koopalings' castles, until they reach Bowser's castle where, once defeated, they will find the princess.

''Super Mario World'' features several innovations compared to ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. There are two types of [[Jump]] (the classic jump and the [[Spin ​​Jump]], which is less high but more effective against enemies and some objects).
''Super Mario World'' has several additions not in the previous game, ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Besides regular [[jump]]s, Mario or Luigi can also perform a [[Spin ​​Jump]], which does not go as high but is necessary to defeat some enemies and destroy [[Rotating Block]]s.
 
In single-player, Mario is the only playable character, but in alternating two-player co-op mode, the second player controls Luigi. In co-op, each player takes a turn doing a level.

[[Yoshi]] is one of the symbols of the game. Inside various blocks, you can find eggs, which hatch to release a Yoshi. By riding the creature, you can use its long tongue to swallow enemies; when Yoshi has a [[Koopa]] in his mouth, he can also use various powers that depend on the color of the shell:
Certain [[Block (Mario franchise)|blocks]] contain an [[Yoshi Egg|egg]], from which a Yoshi hatches. Yoshi is featured mostly in the [[Green Yoshi|Green]] color, but the [[Red Yoshi|Red]], [[Blue Yoshi|Blue]], and [[Yellow Yoshi|Yellow]] varieties all appear in [[Star Road]].
*'''[[Green Shell]]:''' No powers.
 
*'''[[Red Shell]]:''' You can spit out three flames.
All Yoshis can use their long tongue to eat [[Fruit (Yoshi food)|berries]] and most enemies. Yoshi can jump on spiked enemies like [[Spiny|Spinies]] and [[Spike Top]]s without getting hurt. If Yoshi is hit, he runs away, but Mario or Luigi do not receive damage. Mario or Luigi must jump on Yoshi's back to continue riding him. If Yoshi falls into a [[pit]] while running, Mario or Luigi cannot recover him during the [[level]] unless there is another block containing a Yoshi Egg.
*'''[[Blue Shell]]:''' You can fly. Ends when swallowed or when you spit out.
 
*'''[[Yellow Shell]]:''' You become heavier and your jumps become more effective. Ends when swallowed or when you spit out.
Yoshi can drag [[Koopa Shell]]s into his mouth and receive certain abilities, depending on the color of the Koopa Shell. The [[Green Shell]] does not give Yoshi any powers, and Yoshi can spit it out to slide along the ground. The [[Red Shell]] allows Yoshi to spit out three fireballs at once. The [[Blue Shell]] gives Yoshi the ability to fly, until he either [[swallow]]s the shell or spits it out. The [[Yellow Shell]] makes Yoshi heavier and causes him to produce damaging [[sand cloud]]s upon landing. If a Red, Blue, or Yellow Yoshi has a Koopa Shell of any color in his mouth, he always gain the capabilities of a Red Shell, Blue Shell, and Yellow Shell, respectively.
Yoshi can also jump on spiny enemies without getting hurt. If the player gets hit, they will not lose their power-up, but Yoshi will run away; it is possible to get back on his back, but if he falls into a ravine during the escape, you will have to look for another egg to get it back. There are four varieties of Yoshi, and in [[Star World|Star Road]], you can find them in different colors. Depending on the color of the Yoshi you ride, the Koopa shells grant different powers:


*'''Green Yoshi:''' Powers change depending on the color of the Koopa
There are [[Wings]] located in a few of the blocks, and if Mario or Luigi touch them while riding Yoshi, they transport into a [[Coin Heaven]].
*'''Red Yoshi:''' He can spit any color of shell in the form of flames
*'''Blue Yoshi:''' He can fly regardless of the color of the shell in his mouth.
*'''Yellow Yoshi:''' He becomes heavier regardless of the color of the shell in his mouth.
In some very rare blocks, wings can be found, which can only be used while riding a Yoshi. When these wings are touched, the player is transported to a bonus level full of [[Coin|coins]].
