World 6-Fortress is the third fortress level and the thirteenth level overall of Ice Land in Super Mario Bros. 3. Beating it opens the nearby Locked Door.

Layout

The fortress has many conveyor belts and Roto-Discs, many of which are positioned over spikes. There are also a couple of Boos in the fortress as well. High above the gap between the second Roto-Disc and conveyor belt is a block containing a 1-Up Mushroom, which the player can reach if they start the level with a flying power-up and use the straightaway at the start to build the Power Meter. After the second conveyor belt is a ? Block with a power-up placed between two Stretches, with another power-up placed over the third Stretch ahead. The next conveyor belt has a Thwomp above it, and some Coin Blocks on the platform above the player can reach by flying. After the conveyor belts is a Duo-Roto-Disc placed between two Stretches and over a pit of spikes. After the final jump, there is a door that will drop the player into a room with three Boos. The room's floor will rise, allowing the player to reach a door on the right. Through the door is Boom Boom, in a room with five blocks he will jump between.
