History[edit]
Super Mario series[edit]
Super Mario 3D World /Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[edit]
InSuper Mario 3D World and its portSuper Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, the mask can be found after defeating certainGoombas, or in the right Goomba statue near a set ofChargin' Chucks inSunshine Seaside. Like several objects in the game, the Goomba Mask is worn over the player's body. Upon wearing it,Goombas,Galoombas andMini Goombas do not recognize the player and will not attack, but other enemies likeKoopa Troopas andChargin' Chucks will still actively chase the player. Also, Spotlights do not react if the player is within sight. However, contact with enemies still causes damage, removing the mask. When the player jumps, the same sound effect plays as when a Goomba jumps. When the player crouch-walks while wearing the mask, the Goombas' walking sound is used. Power-ups cannot be used in this state, althoughPeach'sfloat can still be used.
Super Mario Maker 2[edit]
InSuper Mario Maker 2, knocking on aWarp Door in theSuper Mario 3D World style may causeWeird Mario to appear while wearing a Goomba Mask. It was later added as a wearable object exclusive to theSuper Mario 3D World style in the version 3.0.0 update released on April 22, 2020, allowing the player to avoid getting noticed by most enemies, unlike inSuper Mario 3D World.
Paper Mario: The Origami King[edit]
InPaper Mario: The Origami King, a different Goomba Mask resembling aPaper Macho Goomba appears in theShogun Studios storage area. If Mario wears it, he spins around and causes the mask's eyes to roll, whichOlivia laughs at.
