World 5-7: Searchlight Sneak

First things first, cross that initial bridge and grab a power-up from the ?-Block. You'll want that Super Leaf! Then, head up the steps and defeat the Hop-Chop. This turns it into a springboard, which you'll need to carry across the next bridge. Be careful, though – those Bullet Bills can destroy the grey bricks of this bridge! If the springboard starts shaking, it means the Hop-Chop is about to turn back to normal, so quickly toss it onto land to reset its timer.

Keep going until you reach a long bridge with a searchlight sweeping left and right. Keep an eye out for Green Star #1 floating in the air. Use your springboard to snag it!

Continue on until you hit the Checkpoint Flag. Right after it, you'll see some ?-Blocks. The Stamp is hanging out above them, so grab it!

A little further ahead, you'll spot a cracked wall. The trick here is to let yourself be seen by the searchlights. The Bullet Bills they fire will blast open the wall, revealing a Mystery Box.

Head into the Mystery Box! You've only got 10 seconds to race to the top of the grey bricks and grab Green Star #2. Bullet Bills are constantly being fired at you, so you need to be quick before the 'stairs' disappear.

Back outside, just past the Mystery Box, there's a Red Ring. Collect the coins around it to get a Super Leaf.

The final stretch of the level involves climbing a bunch of bricks and walls while dodging those searchlights. Keep an eye out for Green Star #3, which is encased inside some bricks. You'll need to use the searchlights and their Bullet Bills to break the bricks and get the star.

Once you make it to the very top, use the bricks to reach the top of the Goal Pole!
