Rainbow Resort - First Level:

  1. Use the Laser ability to shoot the first ice hill, ricocheting to kill a Sleep enemy.
  2. Shoot the platform to hit a Cutter enemy below.
  3. Jump up and hit a Sword enemy with Laser.
  4. Move forward, hit a sloped wall to get a Cutter below.
  5. Kill a normal enemy, then shoot an ice hill to kill an enemy on a platform.
  6. Shoot the next ice hill for another enemy.
  7. Shoot over a spiked enemy so it bounces to hit a bomb block, releasing a 1-Up. Be cautious collecting it.
  8. Go through the white door.
  9. Navigate through blocks and enemies, collect the Peppy Tonic.
  10. At the end, destroy some blocks, kill released enemies, but leave some blocks to stand on.
  11. Go back and get a Spark enemy.
  12. Destroy black blocks with Spark, then use Burning to smash silver blocks.
  13. Land on a switch to activate a secret Bomb Rally, then go through the door.
  14. Slide kick or Burn through the black blocks and go through the door.
  15. Choose a Beam, Stone, or Sword ability if desired.
  16. Navigate past rotating cannons to the final door. You can hit blocks below them to make them fall.

Sub-Game - Bomb Rally:

  • This version is slightly harder and faster than previous difficulties.
  • Pay attention to the bomb's trajectory, as it can be knocked back.
  • If the speed becomes too high, slow it down by hitting the bomb less forcefully. The speed will likely increase again, requiring repeated slowing.

Rainbow Resort - Second Level:

  1. Go through the first door.
  2. Note: Accessing the silver bars at the top allows starting this area at the Hammer boss and obtaining 5x 1-Ups at the end.

Mini-Boss 23:

  1. Move to the center of the fighting ground.
  2. When the boss throws a bomb, inhale it and spit it back for damage.
  3. As the boss jumps back and forth, stay in the middle and duck to avoid attacks.
  4. Inhale and spit back subsequent bombs for more damage.
