What is the Password Solution in the Sunken Ship in Super Mario RPG

I’m here to help you out with this one and let you know that the word of the day is PEARLS. There are two types of players. Those who like to figure solutions out for themselves and those who may want to know what it is so that they can continue on. If you’re the second type of player, you’re in luck. As now that you know that the password solution to the puzzle is PEARLS, you can enter it and be on your way.

To enter the password, you will use the front row of three boxes first and then the row behind. Position Mario under the shadow of the front left box and headbutt it until you get a P. Then move to the next, do the E, and then the A at the end of the row. From there, you will want to move to be behind row, and once again start on the left-hand side. In the back row, you will hit R, L, and S. Once you have entered the password correctly, you will be able to continue on and turn the boss into a flake.

Super Mario RPG is filled with boss fights, and by the time you have gotten to Johnathon Jones, you may be wondering what the best weapons and armor are for each character. It’s a good idea to equip yourself well, as there are stronger battles to come.
