Venture into the fiery depths of World 6: Deep Magma Bog in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, where hidden Wonder Seeds await daring explorers ready to quell the chaotic magic unleashed by King Bowser. From navigating dragon skeletons to conquering lava-filled battlegrounds and uncovering secret Poplin observatories, this guide reveals every secret location to help you collect all the Wonder Seeds and restore balance to this molten realm.
Tips for finding Wonder Seeds
To efficiently find Wonder Seeds in the Deep Magma Bog of Super Mario Bros. Wonder, focus on exploring each level thoroughly, as many seeds are hidden in secret areas or rewarded for freeing imprisoned Poplins. Utilize power-ups like the elephant to break through obstacles and access hidden paths. Keep an eye out for observatories scattered across the map, as they often contain Wonder Seeds. Additionally, some seeds can be purchased from the Poplin Shop using Flower Coins, so collecting these coins is beneficial. Watching detailed walkthroughs or using guides can help you locate tricky seeds, especially those in secret exits or hard-to-reach spots.
Nearly every level will reward you with one Wonder Seed just for reaching the flagpole at the end. But to find every Wonder Seed will take a bit more exploring.
Look for Wonder Flowers
Most levels will have a Wonder Flower to collect. This special flower triggers a trippy reframing of the current level – sometimes the gravity disappears or you enter a twilight realm or multihued bubbles will carry you into the sky. Many of the Wonder Flower sequences end with a Wonder Seed.
Some levels have extra Wonder Seeds
Some levels have a third, hidden Wonder Seed beyond the ones listed on the map. Collecting these Wonder Seeds often unlocks a new path to previously hidden levels – and more Wonder Seeds. We’ll note levels that require finding a hidden Wonder Seed in the list below.
Buy the Sensor Badge
When you reach W5 Fungi Mines, you’ll be able to buy a special Badge from the Poplin Shop there – the Sensor Badge. This Badge will ping when you are close to special pickups like 10 Flower Coins, Wonder Flowers, and, most importantly, Wonder Seeds.
W6 Deep Magma Bog Wonder Seed locations
In World 6: Deep Magma Bog of Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Wonder Seeds are scattered throughout the fiery, lava-filled courses, with a total of 30 seeds to collect. These seeds can be found in various levels such as “Where the Rrrumbas Rule,” “Raarghs in the Ruins,” “Pull, Turn, Burn,” and others, including special badge challenges and secret exits. Some Wonder Seeds are hidden in tricky spots like atop rotating dragon bones or inside observatories where Poplins study the magma conditions. Others are earned by completing courses or freeing imprisoned Poplins. Collecting these Wonder Seeds is essential to cleanse the chaotic Wonder Effects and progress through the world, unlocking new areas and challenges along the way.
There are 30 Wonder Seeds and one Royal Seed in W6 Deep Magma Bog.
Where the Rrrumbas Rule
There are three Wonder Seeds to collect in Where the Rrrumbas Rule.
The first Wonder Seed you can find is actually the secret one. You need to be Drill Mario (or whoever you’re playing as) when you reach the tall pillar just before the checkpoint. Jump against the pillar to knock it over and Wall Jump up into the ceiling. Continue through the narrow gap to the upper right.
Continue along and complete the level at the secret flagpole to receive a Wonder Seed and open a path to Badge Challenge: Boosting Spin Jump 2.
Start the level again and continue through to the checkpoint (below where you got the first Wonder Seed). A little farther along, a Rrrumba with a purple glow will appear above you. Destroy it – either with a Spiny shell, by smashing it into another Rrrumba, or by Drilling into the ground and coming up beneath it – to reveal the Wonder Flower.
Smash your way along as Spike-Ball Mario until you collect the new Wonder Seed.
You’ll get the third Wonder Seed for completing the level normally.
Raarghs in Ruins
There are two Wonder Seeds to collect in Raarghs in Ruins.
Just past the checkpoint, you’ll find the Wonder Seed floating in the middle of a room surrounded by disappearing blocks. Work around the room until you can reach it.

You’ll get the second Wonder Seed for completing the level.
Pull, Turn, Burn
There are two Wonder Seeds to collect in Pull, Turn, Burn.
A little past the checkpoint, you’ll pass over the mouth of a giant Goomba statue. Grab the cord, pull it to make the Goomba sad, and the Wonder Flower will appear.

You’ll receive the second Wonder Seed for completing the level.
Hot-Hot Hot!
There are three Wonder Seeds to collect in Hot-Hot Hot!
A bit after the checkpoint, you’ll come to a dry flower in the mouth of a tunnel that’s surrounded by Hot-Hots. Grab one of the nearby pots of water and splash it on the flower to reveal the Wonder Flower.
Swim through the big bubbles to collect the five Wonder Tokens and reveal the first Wonder Seed.
You’ll receive the second Wonder Seed for completing the level normally.
To find the third, hidden Wonder Seed, you’ll need to play the level again with the Boosting Spin Jump Badge (there might be another way to reach it, but this was the easiest we’ve found). When you reach the checkpoint, turn around and backtrack to the Hot-Hots just to the left.
Use them to climb up to the top of the screen (there’s a water jar nearby to make the process easier). Dash and jump as far as you can to the right, and then Boosting Spin Jump up onto the cloud platform.
Hit the flower there and then the second flower that spawns. Chase the magical spark that creates all the way back to the left until it turns into a door.
Make your way through the twilight version of the level until you reach the new flagpole and get the third Wonder Seed. This opens the path to Break Time! Hot-Hot Rocks.
Wavy Ride through the Magma Tube
There are two Wonder Seeds to collect in Wavy Ride through the Magma Tube.
As you start the level, watch along the top for the cycling item blocks. The first block is an item, but the second block cycles between one of the talking flowers and the Wonder Flower.

You’ll get the second Wonder Seed for completing the level.

Right after the level’s second checkpoint, you’ll come to a Dragon skeleton with a glowing spot on top. Ground Pound it to reveal the Wonder Flower.

What hidden secrets does the rotating dragon bones hold in Deep Magma Bog
The rotating dragon bones in Deep Magma Bog hide several intriguing secrets. By performing a ground pound on a glowing spot on a stationary dragon fossil, you can reveal a Wonder Flower that brings the dragon fossil back to life, allowing you to ride the flying dragon as it loops through the level. Additionally, the rotating dragon bones serve as platforms to ascend and reach hidden Wonder Seeds located at the top of the area. These fossils also conceal multiple large purple 10-Coin Flower Coins that appear on or around the moving dragon bones, requiring precise timing to collect. Riding and jumping on these rotating dragon fossils is key to uncovering these hidden rewards and progressing through the level’s secret paths.
What is the significance of the glowing spot on the dragon fossil in Deep Magma Bog
The glowing spot on the stationary dragon fossil in Deep Magma Bog is significant because performing a ground pound on it reveals a hidden Wonder Flower. This Wonder Flower has the magical power to bring the fossilized dragon back to life, transforming it into a flying Ancient Dragon that players can ride. Riding this revived dragon allows players to navigate the level in a unique way, flying along a fixed route over the goal pole and around the stage, while avoiding obstacles like lava and enemies. Successfully riding the dragon leads to the discovery of a Wonder Seed, a valuable collectible in the game. This mechanic adds a dynamic and exciting element to the level, blending platforming with aerial navigation.
