Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Jump straight over the last cracked block and onto the platform with the Dry Bones.
  2. 2
    Stomp the Dry Bones, being mindful of the Boo to your north. You can stop its pursuit by facing it.
  3. 3
    Run along the four cracked blocks ahead and jump to the fifth, then to the platform above.
  4. 4
    Move right, then north. The right brick block contains a coin; the others are empty. Be cautious of the Boos to the west and north.
  5. 5
    Move up to the platform before the cracked blocks and hit the ? Block.
  6. 6
    Grab the Super Star that spawns and defeat the two Boos.
  7. 7
    Run along the cracked blocks at full speed, defeating a third Boo and four Peepas before the invincibility wears off, earning three 1-Ups.
  8. 8
    Turn right at the corner and run to the end. Touch the red ring to make five red coins appear.
  9. 9
    Jump directly to the north-west block containing the closest red coin. Build up momentum for this jump.
  10. 10
    Grab the first red coin, jump to the next coin to your north-west, then grab the one to your south-west.
  11. 11
    Jump along the remaining blocks north-east, grab the fourth coin, then jump east to the final coin.
  12. 12
    After grabbing the final red coin, you will be rewarded with a 1-Up or a Statue Leaf if you are small or normal Mario.
  13. 13
    Jump onto the solid platform to your right and hit the Checkpoint (an auto-save point you restart from on death) Flag.
  14. 14
    Hit the brick block second from the right multiple times for coins; the others are empty.
  15. 15
    Move right, stomping the Dry Bones or dodging them.
  16. 16
    Follow the steps around and stomp the second Dry Bones.
  17. 17
    Jump north onto the cracked blocks. Move to the center line between the second and third blocks.
  18. 18
    Begin wall jumping between the left and right walls to collect coins as you ascend. Continue wall jumping until you reach the platform above.
  19. 19
    Move right and drop from the first cracked block to the ones below.
  20. 20
    Run right, jump south-east, cutting the corner to avoid the Giant Boo.
  21. 21
    Move south. You will see a Star Coin to your south-east, with another cracked block further south-east.
  22. 22
    Jump towards the Star Coin, gaining as much momentum as possible before the jump. Grab it in mid-air and land on the cracked block to your south-east. Aim the jump carefully, as you usually only get one chance.
  23. 23
    Follow the path around, with the Boo behind you. Jump up onto the solid platform to escape it.
  24. 24
    Jump up the stairs and take a running jump onto the cracked block to your east.
  25. 25
    Jump east along the blocks until you reach the Warp Box at the end and touch it to warp.
  26. 26
    Continue east, jumping along the cracked blocks. Maintain momentum, especially on small blocks, to avoid falling too far.
  27. 27
    Jump up the single block steps at the end until you are on the final step.
  28. 28
    Use your momentum from jumping to the final step to jump off its right edge, getting as much air as possible.
  29. 29
    Jump to the top of the Goal Pole to collect a 1-Up.
