Turn Block

From SMWiki

Turn Blocks are square-ish blocks in the game Super Mario World. They are the most common type of blocks, with ? Blocks following.

Description

Most turn blocks start to spin when hit. Other varieties will yield items such as a Feather or a Fire Flower, or simply give coins. Once this type of block has been hit enough times, it will turn into a Brown Used Block. There are also a few types of Turn Blocks that were programmed into SMW, but never used in any of the levels. One unused block will give no items, but instead become a Used Block when hit. Another unused turn will make Mario bounce off the sides, like a Note Block (this one is not recommended for use). One more type of unused turn block is always spinning and allows Mario to go through it like a dirt tile.

Turns blocks can also be destroyed when hit from above with a Spin Jump while Super Mario, Fire Mario, or Cape Mario.
