Hexagons inHoneycomb Starway fromSuper Mario 3D World

Hexagons (known aspanels inMario Party: The Top 100) are platforms that appear in variousMario titles.

History[edit]

Mario Party series[edit]

Mario Party 2[edit]

Hexagons are featured inHexagon Heat fromMario Party 2. They have sides with a yellow and black stripe pattern, while the colors of the metal-textured surfaces on the hexagons are as follows: yellow on the top left, cyan on the left, blue on the bottom left, pink on the bottom right, green on the right, red on the top right, and white in the middle. WhenToad raises a flag, the hexagons that do not have the corresponding color sink into the lava. They function identically to theMushroom Platforms inMushroom Mix-Up, apart from the fact that they stay in lava longer than the Mushroom Platforms do in water in Mushroom Mix-Up.

Mario Party: The Top 100[edit]

Hexagons from Hexagon Heat reappearMario Party: The Top 100, where they are titled "panels." The panels now depict patterns on the center to make it easier to identify the correct one and their order was also changed: blue with a vertical rectangle on the top left, pink with a square on the left, yellow with an upside-down triangle on the bottom left, red with a horizontal rectangle on the bottom right, cyan with a diamond on the right, green with a triangle pointing up on the top right, and white with a circle in the middle.

Super Mario 3D World /Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[edit]

Hexagons are featured inHoneycomb Starway andHoneycomb Skyway inSuper Mario 3D World andits port. They have metallic gray surfaces, though some hexagons are hazardous, whereice causes player to lose traction or lava, which causes a player to lose a life when touched. They can either be stationary or appear when the player gets close to them. They can also appear vertically, serving as obstacles blocking the path to the top of theGoal Pole.

If the player somehow starts at the end of Honeycomb Starway, three hexagons seemingly containing ice appear; however, the two on the outside clip into the middle one. They also make the player lose a life on contact, with orange lava splashing out.^[1] This may be because hexagons filled with lava appear in the same spot.
