Complete walkthrough for Part 71 and Special 3-3 in Super Mario 3D Land, including all Star Coin locations and Statue Leaf.
Walkthrough
- 1In Part 71, jump onto the small elevated platform north of the first Star Coin. From there, jump onto the brick blocks above. Run and jump from the south edge of the right brick block towards the Star Coin to grab it.
- 2Hit the three brick blocks on the elevated platform for a coin each.
- 3Drop down to your right and Ground Pound (a ground-shaking attack) the ? Block for another coin.
- 4Stomp the Piranha Plant and jump onto the rubber platform.
- 5Use the rubber platform to bounce up to the platform above.
- 6Stomp the Piranha Plant to your north, then the one to the east.
- 7Go to the north-east corner and jump onto the rubber platform.
- 8Wait for the red rotating block to become relatively flat, then jump onto it.
- 9Run along the red block and hit the ? Block in the middle for a Statue Leaf. Grab it before it falls.
- 10Jump onto the green block and travel along it, stomping the Paragoomba at the end.
- 11Jump to the red rotating block, run along it, and stomp the Paragoomba.
- 12Jump onto the next rotating block, follow it north, and stomp the Paragoomba.
- 13The last Star Coin (#3) is on the block north-west of the green rotating block. Take a running jump from the rotating block towards the north-west block, land on it, and jump up to grab the Star Coin. Jump back to the green rotating block.
- 14Jump right onto the yellow block.
- 15Jump north, east, and north again, dealing with the Paragoomba.
- 16Wait for the green rotating block to your left to rotate with an edge facing directly up, then jump onto it.
- 17Run right to the end of the block. Time your jump to be slightly underneath and to the left of the Goal Pole, then take a running jump to grab it for a 1-Up!
- 18In Special 3-3, start by hopping onto the tightrope and grabbing the blue block.
- 19Jump off the end and onto the lower tightrope along the back wall. Wait for the Fuzzy (an enemy that moves in a set pattern) to move away and jump onto the next tightrope. Jump over the Fuzzy if necessary.
- 20Stand under the left side of the tightrope above and wait for the Fuzzies to move away. Jump up and perform a large jump onto the note block to grab the blue clock.
- 21From the note block, perform a high jump to reach the tightrope above. Be careful of the Venus Fire Trap's fireball and run towards it.
- 22The first Star Coin (#1) is above the Venus Fire Trap. Take a large jump from the left edge of the tightrope, jump above the Venus Fire Trap, grab the Star Coin, and drop onto the enemy to stomp it. Jump back onto the tightrope.
- 23Move right along the tightrope to the end. Drop down to the one below and grab the Super Mushroom.
- 24Run right along the tightrope and jump up to grab the blue clock.
- 25Move back left and jump up onto the tightrope underneath the Warp Box. Jump up and hit the Warp Box.
- 26After warping, move right. Jump up onto the tightrope with the Fuzzy, jump over it, and grab the blue clock.
- 27Jump to the next tightrope and then onto the platform.
- 28The second Star Coin (#2) is on the platform to the east. Run to the corner, grab the Star Coin, and then jump into the Warp Box.
- 29After warping, move right and grab the blue block.
- 30Jump onto the tightrope above and wait for the Fuzzies to move. Grab the Statue Leaf trailing behind them.
- 31Jump up to the next tightrope and grab the next blue clock.
- 32Jump up once more, jump over the Fuzzy, and move to the right side of the tightrope, watching out for fireballs from the Venus Fire Trap.
- 33Jump onto the tightrope above with the blue clock on it and run over to reach it.
- 34Run to the end and jump up onto the next tightrope.
- 35Run left, jump to the tightrope above.
- 36Jump up to the next tightrope on your right.
- 37Jump into open air to your right and grab the blue clock.
- 38Wall jump (jump off a wall) off the left wall and land back on the tightrope, or the tightrope above if timed well. Grab the two coins and jump up to the tightrope above.
Tips
- In Part 71, if you miss the first Star Coin, you can simply try again.
- In Special 3-3, collect blue clocks to maintain your time, as you start with only 30 seconds.
- In Special 3-3, use the rubber platforms to reach higher areas.
- In Special 3-3, time your jumps carefully to avoid enemies like Fuzzies and Venus Fire Traps.
- In Special 3-3, the Statue Leaf allows you to fly, which can help reach difficult-to-access areas.
