Mystery Houses are a series of courses that appear inSuper Mario 3D World andSuper Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. They involve completing a marathon ofMystery Box challenges to collectGreen Stars. In these courses, the player is under a ten-second time limit to complete an objective, such as defeating every enemy or reaching the Green Star. These courses become available as soon as the player enters the world they are in, butEnemy Battles or the general map layout could make them inaccessible. They are available on every even-numbered world, includingWorld Bowser,World Mushroom, andWorld Crown.

With the objective being to defeat all enemies to advance for both Mystery Houses, the levelsMystery House Melee andMystery House Brawl may be references toSuper Smash Bros. Melee andSuper Smash Bros. Brawl, respectively.
