Pipe Land consists of nine [[level]]s, two [[fortress]]es, three [[Toad House]]s, two [[Spade Panel]]s, two special [[Piranha Plant]] levels, and a [[castle]] that has been taken over by an [[airship]]. The world consists of many islands linked by a confusing network of pipes, and the islands themselves resemble [[Warp Pipe]]s. The levels in this world often have complex pipe networks within. The kingdom is known to have landscapes, such as plains, deserts, and more, with several pipes. The king wears a Viking's helmet and overall resembles a Nordic Viking.

This labyrinthine world is conquered by [[Ludwig von Koopa]], who turns the [[kings|king of Pipe Land]] into a [[Fire Piranha Plant|Venus Fire Trap]] (or a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] in the remakes).

'''[[Oh, Brother!]]''': Using the [[Power Shower]], [[Ludwig von Koopa|Kooky]] and [[Bowser]] were scheming to wash all the [[coin]]s floating around in the underground Pipe World (presumably another name for Pipe Land or a related area) into a dungeon where they could collect them. When the Power Shower sprung a leak, Kooky captured Mario by pulling him through the Pipe World using his [[Plumber Pole]]. Kooky then hypnotized Mario using his [[Lame Brainer]] so that he would mindlessly repair the invention. Luigi attempted to swim through the Pipe World to rescue Mario, but after being chased by a [[Big Cheep Cheep|Boss Bass]], he returned to [[Toad House|Toad's House]] to don a [[Frog Suit]]. As [[Frog Mario|Frog Luigi]], Luigi eluded all the enemies in the Pipe World and found his way to the Koopas' dungeon. After Luigi rescued Mario and defeated the Koopas, the Power Shower was dismantled, and all the stolen coins were returned to the Pipe World.

'''[[Misadventure of Mighty Plumber]]''': In this episode Bowser wanted to rob the [[Pipe Land Treasury]]. After [[Larry Koopa|Cheatsy]] brought [[Mighty Plumber]] to life from the TV, Bowser tricked him by saying that [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] were trying to rob the treasury. Mighty Plumber followed Bowser through Pipe Land's underground maze, keeping Mario and Luigi out of Bowser's hair. After Bowser plundered the vault, he locked Mighty Plumber inside along with Mario and Luigi. With some help assistance from Mario and Luigi, Mighty Plumber escaped, took the coins back, and was returned to the TV. Mario and Luigi later returned the coins to the treasury.

'''[[Misadventures in Babysitting]]''': The Pipe Maze was also featured in this episode. [[Junior (The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3)|Junior]], a spoiled child from [[Brooklyn]] whom Mario and Luigi accidentally wound up babysitting, found a warp leading to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. There he quickly befriended [[Roy Koopa|Bully]], Cheatsy, and Kooky. The [[Koopaling]]s used Junior as bait to lure Mario and Luigi into a volcano. However, they Koopalings betrayed Junior and tossed him into the Pipe Maze, where he was scared off by various enemies. Eavesdropping on the Koopalings, Mario and Luigi learned about where Junior went, and traveled into the Pipe Maze to find him. At the same time, Kooky began filling the Pipe Maze with lava. However, Mario and Luigi were able to find [[Raccoon Mario|Raccoon Power]], and were able to use it to free Junior from the Pipe Maze.
