Super Mario Wonder brings a lot of new functions, including multiplayer hints that can be placed via an item called Standees. They are incredibly helpful to players who are traversing levels for the first time and are struggling in certain areas, as these Standees can provide a bit of guidance for you.

There are many levels to get through in Super Mario Wonder, with some abilities and powers being unlocked along the way using badges that you can obtain through playing the game

Here is everything you need to know about how to use Standees in Super Mario Wonder.

If a player is in their ghost form, they can use a Standee to revive themselves. The Standees are placed by players from their own game and can be placed all around a course to help out players who are having a tough time. They are usually placed near sites that are dangerous so that if you’ve made a mistake, you can revive and try again. For example, you may find a Standee next to a pool of lava that you could fall into. 

You may also come across Gray Standees. These are standees that were once played by players and have since been deactivated. However, they can be reactivated if you touch them. 

To place a Standee, crouch and press X. If you place another Standee on a course, the previous one placed will disappear.

To purchase them, you can get different designs from the Poplin Shops. In total, there are 144 Standees that you can purchase and collect!

That’s everything you need to know about Standees in Super Mario Wonder.
