The Question Block, also known as a Mystery Block, Prize Block, or ? Block, is a recurring item in the Mario series. It is a block which, when hit, released an item such as a Super Mushroom or a Coin. Mario can either jump on the box, use a Koopa Troopa's shell to hit it, or Ground Pound on it to reveal the contents.
