Goomba

Goombas are one of the most common enemies in the Super Mario series. Making their first appearance in the third dimension with Super Mario 64, they charge at Mario when he gets near and must be defeated by jumping on them or attacking them.

Their bodies are made of three main parts; The head, the torso, and the feet. The head features the Goomba's eyes, eyebrows, mouth, and fangs. The body is a yellow orb-shaped ball that rotates around Mario as he moves around the Goomba. Lastly, the feet are a low-poly oval-shaped object that is flat on the bottom, and walk as it is marching, fitting as it is in Bob-omb Battlefield as well. They also appear in smaller and larger sizes, most commonly named Mini-Goombas and Big Goombas.

Goombas can be found at many places, such as Bob-omb Battlefield and Whomp's Fortress.

Mystery Goomba

 * Main article: Mystery Goomba
 * The Mystery Goomba describes a Goomba in Bowser in the Sky where a Goombas spawn was misplaced and put where the Goomba would spawn at the bottom of the void.

Spike Helmets
Goombas can sometimes appear with spiked helmets similar to a Spinys shell. The helmet hurts the player if they think of jumping on them, instead requiring the player to use a punch or dive to take them out. They tend to spawn on small platforms or in groups, taking advantage of the player not being able to jump on them.

Goomba Tower
Goomba towers first official appearance was in Super Mario 3D Land. When they manifest in your copy they’ll simply be around 4-6 goombas stacked on top of each other, requiring the player to knock down the tower with punches and kicks or a well timed ground pound to squish them all. Some players have reported a mission called “GOOMBA TOWER TAKEDOWN” appearing along with the goomba towers. The mission requires the player to knock down a much taller than usual goomba tower that contains a star on the top.
