Snailicorns are an enemy from New Super Mario Bros.. They are only seen in two ice levels in World 5. These enemies attack by charging towards Mario (or Luigi) and can be very aggressive. They can be annoying as they are quite large in both height and girth, can't be defeated with jumps or fireballs, and they're usually found near icy cliff edges and under low ceilings. However, they aren't indefeasible as jumping on them knocks them back a few feet. They can be knocked off the edges and can be defeated with the use of a Starman, Shell, or a Mega Mushroom. Snailicorns always turn back at edges and never walk right off (like a Red Koopa Troopa).

Trivia[]

  • The Snailicorn's behavior is similar to the Bully from Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS.
  • They appear to be a hybrid between a Snail and a Unicorn, in fact, their name is a combination of both.
