We’ve already received numerous Super Mario installments in the past, many times setting the industry standard for quality in a video game. Now we have a curious detail about Super Mario Bros. 3.
We talk about the Quadruple Roy Route (Roy’s Quadruple Route), a path in Super Mario Bros. 3 that is known as the longest one that can be taken legitimately, without using glitches. This route focuses on the possibility of defeating Roy, one of the Koopalings, up to four times in a single playthrough. Ideal if you have a thing for him…
In Super Mario Bros. 3, There are three pipes that allow Mario to travel between different worlds.From World 1, the pipe can be used to transport to Worlds 2, 3, and 4. From Worlds 2 through 6, the pipe can be used to reach Worlds 5, 6, and 7. Finally, from Worlds 7, 8, and the Warp Zone, you can travel to World 8.
The particularity of the World 6 This is the only world that allows you to use a pipe to return to a previous world, in this case, World 5. When you defeat a boss, Mario is automatically transported to the next world. However, Roy, the boss of World 5, is the only one that can be defeated multiple times in a single playthrough. As? Using the pipe to return from World 6 to World 5. In this way, it is possible to defeat Roy four times in total: once organically while advancing, and three more times by using the pipe to return to World 5 before advancing again.
This strategy in Super Mario Bros. 3 maximizes playing time and allows players to enjoy the largest number of levels possible in a single game… apart from giving Roy a good beating. You can see it below:
