Platforms in the Super Mario franchise are physical objects that the player character jumps across to get through levels or discover secrets. While platforms are mainly in side-scrollers, the player can jump up through the bottoms of some platforms (and, in Super Smash Bros.' case, drop through the tops as well), which cannot be done in three-dimensional games. Platforms often have gimmicky traits, such as moving. These are sometimes referred to as lifts. Some platforms in Yoshi's Woolly World are yarn frames that require a yarn ball to be thrown at them to become solid.
