QUESTION BLOCK

The Question Block (also known as the ? Block, Question Mark Block, or Prize Block) is one of the most iconic interactive objects in the Super Mario franchise. First appearing in the 1985 NES title Super Mario Bros., it floats in midair and dispenses coins, power-ups, or secret items when struck by players. Over decades of games, films, and theme park attractions, the block has remained a primary visual symbol of Nintendo and the Mushroom Kingdom.
