The trickiest levels in Super Mario Bros. Wonder counts the four search party puzzles. Instead of a normal course, you have to find 5 hidden Wonder Tokens here. Only when you have collected all five, the Wonder Seeds appears.
The search party levels are especially designed for joint exploration in multiplayer. In singleplayer, some of the invisible blocks and hidden paths are therefore quite difficult to discover. In this guide, we show you step by step all 20 Wonder Tokens.
All search party levels
- World 2 – Search Party Puzzling Park
- World 3 – Search Party An Empty Park?
- World 4 – Search Party Pipe Park
- World 6 – Search Party Item Park
In each search party level you will find five Wonder Tokens. Once you have collected them all, you will receive a Wonder Seed.
World 2 – Search Party: Search Party Puzzling Park
This search group puzzle can be found in Fluff-Puff Peaks. Many of the crucial blocks are invisible in the single player and appear only when you jump against it.
- Wonder Seeds – all 5 Wonder Tokens
- 1. Wundermarke: Immediately after the start you run on the big bridge. Jump up several times approximately in the middle. As a result, several invisible blocks appear. One of them activates a flower that makes the first miracle brand appear above the bridge. Use the remaining hidden blocks as stairs up.
- 2. Wundermarke: Go down into the area with the yellow tubes. You can move the left single yellow tube to the right. Push it to about the middle of the arc in the background. Then jump up from the tube and hit the hidden block. The flower in it makes the second miracle mark appear.
- 3. Wundermarke: Go back to the upper area. From one of the yellow tubes constantly come super mushrooms. Enter this tube. She puts you in the background, where the third miracle brand is openly waiting for you.
- 4. Wundermarke: Go all the way to the right in the lower area. There it looks like you are falling into a normal abyss. Jump in anyway. You end up in a hidden area below the level and can collect the fourth miracle stamp there. The yellow tube then brings you back up.
- 5. Wundermarke: On the far right are three brown platforms on top of each other. Stand on the lowest platform and go all the way to the right on the wall. Jump up there to hit an invisible block. From this grows a vine. Climb up at her to the fifth miracle brand.
- Wonder Seeds
- After collecting all five Wonder Tokens, the Wonder Seeds automatically appears in the middle of the level.
World 3 Search Party: Search Party An Empty Park?
“Search Party An Empty Park?” in the Shining Falls actually looks almost empty at first. However, the complete level consists of invisible blocks, platforms and rain clouds, which you make visible only by jump.
- Wonder Seeds – all 5 Wonder Tokens
- 1. Wundermarke: Once you have left the initial cave, you go to the large free area. Jump up relatively far to the left several times. As a result, invisible blocks appear. Build a small staircase with it and jump up until the first miracle brand appears.
- 2. Wundermarke: Just above the area of the first brand there are other invisible blocks. Jump up again and again and work your way to the left or up. One of the hidden blocks makes the second miracle brand appear.
- 3. Wundermarke: Through other hidden blocks, a platform first appears that moves up and down. Take her upstairs and jump into the air again. As a result, a second platform appears which moves horizontally. Jump up on the right until a rain cloud appears. In the waterfall of the cloud you will find the third miracle brand.
- 4. Wundermarke: Swim up in the waterfall of the first rain cloud and stand on the cloud. Jump up there several times. As a result, two more hidden blocks appear and then a second rain cloud. In its waterfall is the fourth miracle brand.
- 5. Wundermarke: Swimming into the second waterfall. Approximately in the middle on the right is another invisible block. Meet him for a third rain cloud to appear. Wait until she moves to the left, and swim up in her waterfall. Below the left side of the cloud you will find the last hidden block with the fifth wonder mark.
- Wonder Seeds
- After the fifth miracle brand, the Wonder Seeds appears. Collect it and the search party puzzle is complete.
- Tip for Singleplayer
- If you get stuck, jump systematically over the entire free area. Almost every progress in this level is triggered by an invisible block.
World 4: Search Party Pipe Park
In the Sunbaked Desert, a large place full of yellow tubes awaits you. Some can be moved or pushed down, others lead to hidden areas.
- Wonder Seeds – all 5 Wonder Tokens
- 1. Wundermarke: Climb first to the upper level and go to the left. There are several yellow tubes. Press or move the middle tube so that you can jump over the higher tube on the hill. Behind it lies a hidden area with the first miracle brand.
- 2. Wundermarke: Go back to the lower level and enter the sixth yellow tube counted from the left. You reach an underground area. You already see the miracle brand in the foreground. Drop down and go all the way to the left to the blue-edged block. There is an invisible tube that takes you directly to the second mark.
- 3. Wundermarke: Climb back to the upper level and go right to the three adjacent tubes. Stand on the right or third tube and let it sink by your weight. As a result, the other tubes move up and form a staircase. Jump quickly over the raised tubes upwards to the third miracle mark.
- 4. Wundermarke: Go all the way to the right in the lower area and enter the last yellow tube there. You get to a grip. If you pull on it, the space is not enough to pull out the miracle mark at first. Jump up above the handle and find two invisible blocks. Then stand on the higher block and pull the grip again. Now you can pull out the fourth miracle mark completely.
- 5. Wundermarke: Go to the top right to the many tubes and enter the penultimate tube. You reach a small enclosed area. Push the high tube on the right side further to the right. Behind it lies the fifth miracle brand.
- Wonder Seeds
- Once you own all five Wonder Tokens, the Wonder Seeds will appear.
World 6 – Search Party: Search Party Item Park
The last search party puzzle can be found in the Deep Magma Bog. Here you have to switch between Elephant Fruit, Drill Mushroom and Bubble Flower to reach all five Wonder Tokens.
Important: Use Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Daisy or a Toad for this level. With Yoshi or Nabbit you can not use the necessary normal list of power-ups transformations and therefore not solve the course completely regularly.
- Wonder Seeds – all 5 Wonder Tokens
- 1. Wundermarke: Get the drill mushroom first. Climb on the right side over the platforms upwards and then back to the left. Above the? blocks are hidden blocks. Jump against it, then drill into the ceiling and move to the left. There you will find the first miracle brand.
- 2. Wundermarke: Changing to the Elephant Form. On the left is a large metal spiked ball. Strike her with the trunk to the left and let her roll up the slope. The bullet destroys the wall in front of the second wonder mark.
- 3. Wonder brand: Stay as an elephant and climb into the upper middle range. To the right are several? blocks. Strike with the trunk against the invisible block above or next to the blocks. From this grows a vine where you can climb up to the third miracle brand.
- 4. Wundermarke: Get the Bubble Flower. On the right, several cheep cheeps swim. Shoot them with soap bubbles. Once all the fish are defeated, the fourth miracle mark appears.
- 5. Wundermarke: Change back to the Drill Mushroom. On the right side, several platforms move up and down. Drill into the middle or second moving platform. Wait until it is on the far right of the wall and move through the wall as a drill. Behind it is the hidden room with the fifth miracle brand.
- Wonder Seeds
- After all five Wonder Tokens, the Wonder Seeds appears and you have completed the last search party level.
- Tip
- You don’t have to bring the power-ups from outside the level. Elephant Fruit, Drill Mushroom and Bubble Flower are available within the search party area and can be changed at will.
How do the search party levels work?

- The marks may be collected in any order.
- After all five brands, 1 Wonder Seeds appears.
- There is no normal goal pole.
- In total, there are 4 search party levels.
Solving Search Party in Singleplayer
All four puzzles can basically be solved alone. However, some mechanics have been deliberately designed to make them easier to discover together.
Especially the so-called character blocks are helpful in multiplayer. Certain invisible blocks become visible to the corresponding character. If you play with another character, you have to feel their position yourself through Jump.
This is especially true of Search Party Puzzling Park and Search Party Pipe Park. In “Search Party An Empty Park?”, on the other hand, almost the walkthrough consists of invisible blocks.
Which search party puzzle is the most difficult?
For many players, Search Party An Empty Park? is the most difficult search party level. Without clues, it is hardly possible to see where the invisible blocks are located and how the three rain clouds are unlocked.
“Search Party Item Park” initially seems more complicated, but can be solved relatively systematically: Every miracle brand basically requires the right use of a certain power-up.
