Need help finding all eight Red Coins in Tick Tock Clock? This guide shows you the best way to grab them, especially with time stopped!

Alright, so for the last normal star in Tick Tock Clock, we're going after those eight Red Coins. The star's name gives you a huge hint: it's way easier if you jump into the level with time stopped! Seriously, it makes collecting these coins so much simpler.

The reason why stopping time is so helpful is that all the Red Coins are located on those rotating platforms. If time is moving, those platforms can be a real pain to jump on, especially the higher ones. So, when you first start the level, head to the right side (or behind you, depending on how you look at it) – that's where you'll find the first few coins.

Good news is, they're grouped up nicely into four sets of two. Most of them will be on the right side of these spinning platforms. After you snag the first two pairs, you'll spot two platforms over on the left side; that's where the third set is waiting. The final pair of coins is also on the right side, but you'll need to grab them from a platform one level higher than the others.

Keep an eye out for the star itself! Even though its shadow might be on the ground, the actual star will appear up in the air, just to the left of those double platforms on the left side.
