Pits are a common obstacle in the 2D games of the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]]. [[Lava]] and [[poison (obstacle)|poison]] are essentially pits. Allowing the player's character to sink through [[quicksand]] is the same as falling into a pit. Certain pits may be only one block wide; in such cases, the player can often [[dash|run]] straight across the pits without falling down as long as they have enough speed. Walking across these narrow pits without running generally does not work. | Pits are a common obstacle in the 2D games of the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]].

Although Mario can [[swim]] in some levels of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', if he falls into [[water]] in a non-swimming level, he loses a life just as if it were a pit. In ''Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels'', some backwards [[Warp Zone]]s have a small pit Mario can fall into to avoid warping backwards. | Although Mario can [[swim]] in some levels of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', if he falls into [[water (obstacle)|water]] in a non-swimming level, he loses a life just as if it were a pit.

In ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'', falling into a pit will play Mario's death animation upon touching the bottom of screen, similar to falling into lava. | In ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'', falling into a pit will play Mario's death animation upon touching the bottom of screen, similar to falling into lava. |
