Complete walkthrough for Super Mario 3D Land Part 101, including Star Coin locations and Special 8-3.
Walkthrough
- 1Move north and jump onto the left of the two blocks near the platform.
- 2Dodge the wrench thrown by the left Rocky Wrench and jump to its platform.
- 3From there, jump to the block to your left, then left again onto the block with the Warp Pipe.
- 4Wait next to the Warp Pipe for the Rocky Wrench inside to pop up. Stomp it and enter the pipe.
- 5You will appear on a platform above the previous blocks. Break the brick block to reveal a gear.
- 6Spin the gear using your Tanooki Suit's Tail Spin. Keep going until the platform stops moving upwards.
- 7When it stops, move north-east to the Star Coin. Jump up and grab it before the platform drops. Drop back to the platform.
- 8You can get an item from each of the Roulette Blocks by Ground Pounding them. If you don't have a Statue Leaf for the second Star Coin, this is a chance to obtain one.
- 9Jump off the left edge of the platform, following the coins down to the platform below.
- 10To get two 1-Ups, kick the Green Shell north-north-east so it bounces to the right, hits the wall, and bounces back. This should defeat all Rocky Wrenches.
- 11Move to the north edge of the platform and jump onto the block there.
- 12Stay in the center and jump from block to block until you reach the large block at the end.
- 13Wait for the large block to move clockwise enough to run up it. Move right to the end and wait for it to move back.
- 14Jump onto the small face at what will soon be the top. Ride the block past the Poison Mushroom until it stops moving and jump off onto the next block.
- 15Run along the first part of the block until you reach the next part, staying in the center.
- 16When the block moves clockwise enough to jump onto the next part and run right, do so. Follow the path around, staying on the face closest to being upright until you reach the very end of the block.
- 17Wait at the end and let the block move right until you can jump to the small block with the Warp Box.
- 18Jump onto the block. Stay in the center until the face with the Star Coin moves to the top. Grab the Star Coin.
- 19You can break the fake 1-Up, Goomba, and Warp Pipe for a coin each. Jump into the Warp Box.
- 20You will warp to the platform above. Move left and enter the Warp Box there.
- 21This will warp you to the block next to the Goal Pole. Do not take the right Warp Box unless you want to warp to a point on the Goal Pole that gives ten coins.
- 22Break the fake 1-Up here for a real 1-Up and grab it.
- 23Take a running jump off the center of the right edge onto the top of the Goal Pole for a 1-Up.
Special 8-3
Walkthrough
- 1Jump up and grab the Blue Clock. Bypass the two brick blocks to your left, as they contain nothing.
- 2Jump up the steps and stomp the Dry Bones. Hit the ? Block for a coin. Ignore the two brick blocks to either side.
- 3Move north-east and wait next to the platforms floating south-west.
- 4Jump onto these platforms and run north-east along them. Jump over the Pole 'n' Chain when it swings underneath.
- 5Grab the Blue Clock near the end and jump to the next set of floating platforms.
- 6Run along these, jumping over the two Pole 'n' Chains as required. Grab the next Blue Clock at the end and jump to the next set of platforms.
- 7Wait on the center of the south-west edge of a platform that's about to sink. Let it float until it's underneath the Star Coin. Jump up and grab it, then land on the set of platforms to your south.
- 8Ride these north-east and jump back to the set of platforms you were just on.
- 9Run north-east along these platforms, watching out for any Dry Bones that may have spawned from the Baddie Box.
- 10Jump onto the stable platform and grab the Blue Clock there.
- 11Jump onto the wooden platform, whether it's being elevated by the lava geyser or not. Ignore or stomp the Dry Bones and jump to the next platform.
- 12Stomp the Draglet so you don't need to worry about the fireballs it spits.
- 13Run over to the first Thwomp. Wait for it to slam into the ground before moving underneath. Circle around until it slams again.
Tips
- Don't stomp any of the Rocky Wrenches in Part 101 if you want a couple of 1-Ups.
- If you don't have a Statue Leaf to get the second Star Coin in Part 101, the Roulette Blocks offer a chance to obtain one.
- In Special 8-3, Blue Clocks appear normally; you don't need to stomp enemies to get them.
- In Special 8-3, ignore or stomp the Dry Bones and jump to the next platform.
