Goombas are common enemies throughout the game. They appear in many courses. They can be defeated by landing on them, punching or kicking them, or interacting with other objects.

Spawning

There are two main varieties of Goombas. Singleton Goombas that remain loaded from the start of the level, and Goomba trios that load and unload using a Goomba Spawner.

Goombas from Goomba trios are the only ones that can be cloned without a loading zone.

Locations

The following courses have Goombas:

• Bob-omb Battlefield
• Jolly Roger Bay
• Bowser in the Dark World
• Shifting Sand Land
• Bowser in the Fire Sea
• Tiny-Huge Island
• Rainbow Ride
• Bowser in the Sky

Use in Challenges

Bouncing on Goombas provides a height advantage, which is useful in challenges, especially the A Button Challenge, where bouncing on Goombas can be used as an alternative to jumping.

Cloned Goombas can be placed in specific spots to allow bounces in specific spots where Goombas can not usually go (such as in midair). Large numbers of Goomba clones are used to create Goomba structures, allowing Mario to perform multiple consecutive bounces to go forwards or upwards in midair.

Trivia

• Mario can squish Goombas while flying, if he is flying slowly and downwards.
