Super Mario 64 DS - Strategy Guide (Page 10)
Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Super Mario 64 DS - Strategy Guide (Page 10).
From there, jump down onto the platform that is beneath you. Two Goombas are on it, and you may want to defeat them so that they do not get it your way. After that, turn around and face the tilting platforms. Walk to the upper right, and you will see that the platform you are on extends. On the extension is the final red coin. You can walk over to the extension (jumping is also a safe method, since the walkway to the extension is unusually narrow), and take the red coin. The power star will appear directly behind the tube that takes you to Bowser. Start by getting off the extension, onto the main platform. Face away from the tilting platforms, and go to the upper right of the platform. There will be platforms sticking out of the wall. Jump onto the first platform, and then jump up to the next platform. From there, walk up and over to the switch. Step on the switch, and then quickly jump up the stairs. When you are at the top, run straight along the platform, going behind the tube, and take the power star that is there. ---------------------------------------------------- Secret Star 10: Bowser in the Dark World Switch Star ---------------------------------------------------- Recommended Character: Yoshi Note: The switch of this switch star is next to Bowser's tube. If you already know how to get to Bowser's tube in the Dark World, skip to the seventh paragraph. Also, we highly recommend that you use Yoshi to get this star, since his flutter kick goes further than a long jump. Once you have twelve stars, you can acquire this switch star. Head up the center stairs in the main room, and head left into the big star door. You will enter a hallway, and there will be a picture on the far wall. Run straight towards the picture, and you will fall into the Dark World. In the Dark World, you will need to make it to Bowser. Begin by running straight across the platforms, all the way until you get to the fire emitter. Wait until it stops emitting fire, and then run straight past it. After that, you will encounter two moving platforms. Run (or jump) across them. Back on solid ground, run up the left path. It will make a sharp U- turn (watch out for the fire emitter), but you should keep following it. At the top, it will end. There will be several platforms going around in a circle. Run and jump onto one of them. Ride it until it is on the other side, and then jump onto the circular platform. On the circular platform, go to the right and run across the bridge. You will then be on a narrow, twisting walkway. Follow the walkway as it goes, and avoid getting hit by the spherical enemies. When you are at the end of the twisting walkway, you will find a platform moving back and forth. When it is next to the walkway you are on, jump onto it, and then jump onto the platform above it. Wait for it to go all the way back. When it starts coming out again, run onto it and jump onto the next solid platform. There will be a set of two moving platforms. Walk onto the first one that comes by, and turn to the right. You will see another set of moving platforms. When the platforms are lined up, run onto the moving platform next to yours. Ride that platforms over to the next solid platform, and then hop onto the solid platform. As you go to the other side of that platform, defeat the Goomba so that he does not get in your way. Next, turn left and facing the large, tilting platforms. Jump onto the first way, and run to the end of it. When you are near the end of it, jump onto the next tilting platform. Before you go anywhere, wait a second or two so that the platform begins to tilt. When it does, run quickly across it, and jump up to the high platform at the end of it. On the high platform, you should see another platform with a switch on it, across a large gap. Run and do a long jump over to the platform. Step on the switch, and it will turn the slope into stairs. Jump all the way up the stairs. At the top you will find a circular platform with a tube on it. The star switch is next to the tube. Step on it, and the switch star will appear. Run back the way you came, and go down the slope. You need to stay on the platform at the end of the slope. To keep from sliding off of the platform, jump and quickly pound the ground as you near the end of the slope. Once you are there, jump and flutter kick over to the next platform. On that platform, you will see that there are a few other rectangular platforms in the air. Jump and flutter kick from one of another. Keep doing this until you reach the final platform, which the switch star is on. Take it, and finish this power star. ------------------------------------ Secret Star 11: ? Switch 8 Red Coins ------------------------------------ Required Character: Mario Since Mario is the only person who can use the wing cap, you will need him to beat this level. Once you have fourteen power stars, the circle pattern on the floor of the first castle room will suddenly have light streaming to it. Stand on the circle and look up to where the light is coming from. You will then be warped into another world, where you will start off with the feather, high in the sky. To get the power star in this level simply fly around with the feather, collecting all eight red coins in the area. You must go fast, as once you lose you initial feather you will be unable to get the height needed with the other feathers you can get. Also, you will lose altitude quickly so go for the higher red coins first. They are in a slanted line, starting to your left. Once you have all of the red coins a star will appear on top of the tower in the middle of the area. Fly over to the tower, and get the star to complete this challenge. ------------------------------------------ Secret Star 12: Big Boo Battle 8 Red Coins ------------------------------------------ Recommended Character: Mario To find this secret star, you first need to enter Big Boo's Haunt. Once you are there, head into the mansion. Go up to the second floor. Turn and head to the right wall, and go into the door that is there. Run straight past the bookcase, but do not turn when you reach the end wall. Instead, head over to where the ? box is. As Mario, open up the ? box and take the power flower that is in it. Float up to the top of the room, and then over to the small platform at the top of the room. Go through the door that is there. You will end up in the attic, and a picture of Luigi will be on the wall. Jump into the picture to enter Big Boo's secret world. You will drop in a room that is similar to Big Boo's Merry-Go-Round. Head straight across the room, and take the red coin that is in the opposite doorway. Go through the door, and you will be back at the beginning. This time head through the door to your right. You will enter another room, which has falling block bridges. Run across the first bridge, onto the center platform. Take the coin that is on the platform in the center of the room. Next, run across the bridge to the right; there is a red coin on it. Once you are past that bridge, head into the door and you will go back to the beginning. If you are not Mario, quick grab his cap before continuing; it should be in the left doorway. When you are back at the beginning, go through the door to the right, across the first bridge, and then across the bridge to the left. Now you will enter the third room. First, jump onto the large, square platform in the middle of the room. When you are on it, run quickly under the ? box. The floor underneath the ? box tilts, so if you do not get to the middle of it (directly under the ? box) quickly, you will fall through. Break open the ? box, and take the power flower inside of it. Float quickly over to the upper right corner of the room, as there is a red coin there. Take that coin, and then float over to the platform that has a red coin on it (to the right of where you entered). Pick up the red coin, and go through the door on that platform. It will lead to the fourth room. Inside the fourth room, walk onto the square platform directly in front of the one you start out on. When you walk on it, it will start moving. Ride it as it moves, and collect the red coin that it goes under. When it comes to the next platform, walk onto the platform. Connected to that platform will be another moving platform. Step on it, and ride it to the next platform. Once you are on a solid platform again, go over and take the Wario cap that is there; you will need it later. Finally, ride the next moving platform to the next solid platform. Take the red coin the you will come to. Now that you are on the final solid platform, go into the door. Through the door, you will find the fifth room. Go to the right, and you will see a black brick block. Since you are Wario, you can easily punch it open. Inside the block will be the final red coin. Take it, and the power star will appear on the opposite side of the platform you are on. Walk over to the power star, and finish the level. ------------------------------------------ Secret Star 13: Big Boo Battle Secret Room ------------------------------------------ Recommended Character: Luigi Luigi is required for this power star, so switch to him before trying to retrieve it. To find this secret star, you first need to enter Big Boo's Haunt. Once you are there, head into the mansion. Go up to the second floor. Turn and head to the right wall, and go into the door that is there. Run straight past the bookcase, but do not turn when you reach the end wall. Instead, head over to where the ? box is. As Luigi, do a backward somersault, up to the ledge higher up in the room. Then, run go through the door that is there. You will end up in the attic, and a picture of Luigi will be on the wall. Jump into the picture to enter Big Boo's secret world. Inside the Big Boo Battle level, go into the door that is to the right. You will enter another room with block bridges. Run across the first bridge, onto the platform that is in the middle of the level. From there, run across the bridge to the left and go in the door there. You will enter a room with a large platform in the middle of the room. A ? box is above the middle of the platform. Quickly jump to the large platform, and run under the ? box. Break it, and take the power flower that is inside of it. It will make Luigi invisible. Next, jump to the small platform to the right, and go in the door that is on it. When you enter the next room, turn slightly left so that you are facing the platform on the platform on the left wall. Next, do a long jump over to the platform. Go through the door that is there. Finally, you will enter a rectangular room. Run straight across the room, heading straight across the falling block bridge. When you are past the bridge, keep running straight. There will be a picture on the wall. Since you are invisible, you can jump through the picture. Once you jump through the picture, you will find yourself in a small room with a power star in it. ------------------------------------------------ Secret Star 14: Behind the Waterfall 8 Red Coins ------------------------------------------------ Recommended Character: Wario This secret level is actually hidden inside another level. To get to it, start by heading into Hazy Maze Cave. When you start the level, there will be two paths for you to choose from. Go down the left route. Follow it as it goes, and do the long jump to get across the large gap. After the gap, you will see a door. Enter it. Next, you will be in the black hole area. Follow the path there, and make your way around the hole. Keep going until you reach the solid ground that the rocks are rolling down. Once you are there, stick to the sides to minimize your chance of being hit, and head up the hill. When you are at the top of the hill, head to the right, and go in the door there. You will be led into a room, divided by a wire wall. There is an elevator in the room. Stand on the elevator, and ride it all the way down. Once it is at the bottom, leave the elevator. There will be a path that heads down to the water. Follow the path, defeating any Goombas that are in your way. Make your way down to the water, and begin to swim. You are now in the cavern, and the beast is nearby. Swim through the water until you see the beast. When you find him, swim up behind him and onto his back. Jump up, and pound the beast's back in order to make it lower its head. Then, walk along the neck of the beast until you are on the top of its head. Wait there until it lifts its head. To get to the secret level, you need to go through the double metal doors that are on the piece of land that is high above the water level. Now that you are on the top of the beast's head, you can actually control where it goes. The beast will go the direction the you are facing. If you are facing forward, the beast will go forward. If you are facing right, the beast will turn right. Using this method, make the beast swim next to the piece of land that the metal double doors are on. When the beast is there, jump off of it, onto the piece of land. Then, go through either one of the two doors. You will enter a small passageway. Run through the passageway until you come to a large room. A mysterious pool is in the center of the room. Jump into the pool to enter the secret level. Inside the secret level, go along the path until you reach the river of water. The water is flowing rapidly. If you go into it, it will sweep you downstream. Face upstream, and jump to the island that is closest to the place you are at. Run to the end of that island, and then jump to the platform that is next to it. Go across the platform, and over the small bridge that is on it. When you come off the bridge, you will be facing a small cave in the wall. There are two pillars at the entrance to the small cave. Go inside the cave, and take the two red coins that are there. When you have them, leave the cave. Outside of the cave, continue to go across the platform. As soon as you are at the end of that platform, jump to the small platform that is after it. There is a Goomba on it that will be wearing Wario's cap if you are not Wario. If you are not Wario, defeat the Goomba and take the cap before continuing. Next, jump onto the final platform. There are two red coins on it, as well as a ? box. Take the two red coins, and then break open the ? box. Grab the power flower that comes out of the box to turn into Metal Wario. As Metal Wario, jump into the water and run around the base of the platform that you were on. You will find the final four red coins stationed at the base of the platform. Go around the base of the platform until you have them all, and then the power star will appear. The power star is in under the water, in between the platform and the waterfall. Run around the base of the platform until you find it, and then take it to complete the challenge. ------------------------------------------------ Secret Star 15: Behind the Waterfall Secret Star ------------------------------------------------ Recommended Character: Mario This secret level is actually hidden inside another level. To get to it, start by heading into Hazy Maze Cave. When you start the level, there will be two paths for you to choose from. Go down the left route. Follow it as it goes, and do the long jump to get across the large gap. After the gap, you will see a door. Enter it. Next, you will be in the black hole area.

To get to the secret level, you need to go through the double metal doors that are on the piece of land that is high above the water level. Now that you are on the top of the beast's head, you can actually control where it goes. The beast will go the direction the you are facing. If you are facing forward, the beast will go forward. If you are facing right, the beast will turn right. Using this method, make the beast swim next to the piece of land that the metal double doors are on. When the beast is there, jump off of it, onto the piece of land. Then, go through either one of the two doors. You will enter a small passageway. Run through the passageway until you come to a large room. A mysterious pool is in the center of the room. Jump into the pool to enter the secret level. Inside the secret level, go along the path until you reach the river of water. The water is flowing rapidly. If you go into it, it will sweep you downstream. Carefully jump across the islands and platforms as you make your way upstream. Keep going until you reach the final platform. It is circular, and it has a ? box on it. It will also have a Mario cap on it if you are not Mario. If you are not Mario, pick up the Mario cap before you continue. Then, break open the ? box. A power flower will come out of it, and it will slowly float down to the ground. Jump up to get the power flower. It will make Mario float. Rapidly press the B button, causing Mario to float up. Keep floating straight up from where you received the power flower, since the power star is directly above that point. When you are high enough, you will get the power star. ----------------------------------------------------- Secret Star 16: The Secret Under the Moat 8 Red Coins ----------------------------------------------------- Required Character: Wario For this secret star, you need to have drained the moat. You also need to be Wario. As Wario, go into the moat, now drained of its water. Walk around until you see a black brick block. Run up to the block, and punch it to break it open. You will discover that it was covering a hole in the moat. Go into the hole in order to enter this secret world. You will find yourself on the top of a large slope. Begin by walking forward, onto the moat. As you start to slide, press backward in order to slow your descent. You will slide onto a platform with a red coin on it. Take the red coin. Then, turn so that you are facing away from the wall that is next to you. Adjust the camera angle so that the camera is facing the same way as your character. You will see another platform, further down, with another red coin on it. Run and jump onto the platform, and then take the red coin that is on it. After that, jump onto the platform with the ! box on it. Then, turn so that your character and the camera are facing away from the small wall that is there. You will see a platform with a ? box on it. Run, and jump to that platform. Once you are on the platform with the ? box on it, walk over to the middle of the platform. Then, drop off of the platform and onto the slope. Again, press backward to slow your descent. You will slide onto another platform, and it has another red coin on it. On either side of the platform that you are on, there are two other platforms. One of them has a red coin. Run, and jump onto the platform that has the red coin. Take the coin, and then slide the rest of the way down the slope. After you are at the bottom of the slope, turn so that you are facing away from the ? box that is at the bottom of the slope. Run along the path, and turn when it does. Keep going along the path, and you will come to a wooden, tilting platform. Jump onto the tilting platform, and stand on the end of it for a few seconds. Then, run to the other side of the platform and jump onto the platform that is after it. Continue to run across the platforms, and jump onto the platform that is higher than it. Run along that platform until you reach the end of it, and then turn to the right. There are two platforms there, moving around two poles. When one of the platforms is next to you, jump onto it. Ride the platform up until it is next to a wooden, tilting platform. Jump onto the tilting platform, and get the red coin that is on the edge of it. Run to the other side of the wooden platform, and you will find another red coin. After you have that red coin, stay on the edge of the tilting platform. Right next to the tilting platform, there is another set of moving platforms. When one of them comes near the tilting platform, jump onto it. If the tilting platforms starts to tilt too much, run to the other end of it to straighten in out. Then, run back so that you can jump onto one of the moving platforms. When you are at the top of the route of the moving platforms, jump to one of the lower platforms that goes around the poles next to the poles that your platform goes around. If the platforms on the next set of poles are too far to jump to, jump onto a lower platform that goes on your route. Once a platform reach the top of its set of poles, it flips over. Make sure you are not on it when this happens. Ride the platform on the next set of poles until it is near the top of its set of poles. Then, jump to one of the platforms that is on an even higher set of poles than the one you are on. The seventh red coin is in between the platform you are on and the platform you should jump to, so make sure that you get it. You will then be on the final set of moving platforms. Ride the platform until it is as high as it will go, and then jump onto the solid piece of land that is there. Go along the piece of land, and pick up the Luigi cap that is on it. When you are Luigi, go to the ? box and break it open. Take the power flower, and you will become invisible. Then, run along the piece of land. The eighth red coin is on the piece of land, so take it when you see it. With all eight red coins in your control, the power star will appear in the cage that is there. Since you are invisible, all you need to do is to run into the cage and to take the power star. There is a hole next to the power star that will take you out of the level if you fall in it, so make sure that you avoid it. ----------------------------------------------------- Secret Star 17: The Secret Under the Moat Switch Star ----------------------------------------------------- Required Character: Wario For this secret star, you need to have drained the moat. You also need to be Wario. As Wario, go into the moat, now drained of its water. Walk around until you see a black brick block. Run up to the block, and punch it to break it open. You will discover that it was covering a hole in the moat. Go into the hole in order to enter this secret world. You will find yourself on the top of a large slope. Slide all the way down to the bottom of the slope. After you are at the bottom of the slope, turn so that you are facing away from the ? box that is at the bottom of the slope. Run along the path, and turn when it does. Keep going along the path, and you will come to a wooden, tilting platform. Jump onto the tilting platform, and stand on the end of it for a few seconds. Then, run to the other side of the platform and jump onto the platform that is after it. You will find the Mario cap at the end of that area. Put it on, and then head back to the ? box that is at the bottom of the slope. Break open the ? box, and take the power flower that is inside it. Float along wall, and head away from the slope. Soon you will come to a platform, standing calmly in the middle of the abyss. Land on the platform. There is a star switch on the platform. Step on the switch to make the switch star appear. As soon as it appears, run over to the ? box that is on the platform. Break it open, and take the power flower that is inside it. Float straight up, and make sure that you do not turn at all. Eventually you will reach the top of the vertical path that you were going up, and you will see a horizontal path. Land on the horizontal path. Run to the end of the path, and break open the ? box that is there. Again take the power flower and float straight up the vertical shaft. When you are at the top of the shaft, you will see the power star imprisoned in a glass enclosure. Crash into the glass enclosure to free the power star. ------------------------------------- Secret Star 18: Toad's 1st Power Star ------------------------------------- Recommended Character: None While I do not have the exact requirements for this power star, it is easy to get so that should not be a problem. When you have enough power stars (I think that you must have 25, but I am not totally certain), talk to the Toad that is in the room that holds the entrance to Hazy Maze Cave. He will tell you about a power star that he found, and he will give it to you. That's all there is to it. -------------------------------------------------- Secret Star 19: Bowser in the Fire Sea 8 Red Coins -------------------------------------------------- Recommended Character: Mario When you are ready to collect this power star, switch to Mario and enter the Bowser in the Fire Sea level. You will need to collect all 8 red coins in the level, so here are their locations. Each new paragraph gives the location of another red coin. Past the first set of rectangular platform that rise and sink in the lava, there is a solid platform with a bully on it. Directly after that solid platform, there is a wire path that leads up and away from the main path. Follow the wire path until you are at the top of it. The red coin is above the hole at the top of the wire path. After the first pole of the level, on the side of the first large, tilting platform, you will find the second red coin. When you jump off of the second pole of the level, you will be inside a large cage. In the corner of the cage that is away from the elevator, you will find the third red coin. When you jump off of the second pole of the level, you will be inside a large cage. On one side of the cage you will find an elevator. Step on the elevator to make it go up, and then quickly get off of it. There will be a hole where the elevator was, and the red coin is in the center of the hole. Jump down the middle of the hole, and you will get the fourth red coin. After you pass the first fire emitter, there will be a small slope. Go to the top of the slope, and stand on that flat part at the top of the slope. There will be a narrow path to the right, and it will lead up to a circular platform with a bully on it. The fifth red coin is above the center of that platform. Soon you will come to a set of several yellow, wire paths that lead to small platforms. After you are on the platform that is after the third yellow, wire path, wait while the structure goes up and down. When the structure is as high as it will get, jump up and get the red coin that is above the platform. On the third story of the area, you will once again come to rectangular platforms that rise and sink in the lava. There are two fire emitters that shoot fire across two of the platform. Next to the front of the second fire emitter, you will find the seventh red coin. After the set of rectangular platforms on the third story, you will come to poles that move up and down. Just above the third pole that moves up and down, there is the eighth red coin. If you do a handstand on the top of the pole, you can get the final red coin. When you have all 8 red coin, head to the wire platform that is above the second pole of the third story. Face the wall that is closest to the ground, and do a continuous jump, timing it so that you hit the wall at the peak of the second jump. As soon as you reach the wall, do a wall kick. If you did it correctly, you will have enough height to grab onto the top of the other wall. Climb up, and you will find the power star. -------------------------------------------------- Secret Star 20: Bowser in the Fire Sea Switch Star -------------------------------------------------- Recommended Character: Luigi For this level, you get to acquire the switch star of the fire sea. Start out as Mario in order to get this switch star. Go through the level until you reach the third story. When you are on the third story, you will go up a brick path until you reach a set of rectangular platforms. Go across the platform until you reach the first pole of the third story. Jump onto the pole, and then jump into the small area that is after the pole. Run across the platform you land on until you come to a wire platform. There is a hole in the middle of the wire platform, and a pole goes in and out of the hole. Run towards the wall that is there. Jump towards it, and do a wall kick off of it. You will jump towards the wall on the other side. As soon as you reach that other wall, do a wall kick off of it. You should land on a platform, high in the level. A ! box and a star switch will be on the level. Step on the star switch to make the star appear. Then, turn around and run back the way you came. Fall down onto the wire platform, run across the platforms that are there, and finally, jump across the rectangular platforms that rise and sink in the lava. At the end of the rectangular platforms, you will come to a wire platform. Jump onto the wire platform, and run across it until it turns into a brick path. Turn left as soon as it becomes a brick path, and run to the end of the path. The power star will be there, trapped in a glass enclosure. Break open the glass enclosure to claim the power star. Another easier way to get this star is to use Luigi's backward somersault. As soon as you step on the switch star, jump over to the platform where the red coin star appears. Go to the end of the platform, and turn around. Crouch, and do a backward somersault towards the switch star. You should be able to clear the lava and easily get the power star. -------------------------------------------- Secret Star 21: Power Star of the White Room -------------------------------------------- Required Character: Luigi In order to find this power star, you need to become Luigi. Head to the room that holds the entrance to Snowman's Land. There will be a large mirror on one side of the room. Several small stands stand stationary in the room. On two of these stands are what look to be normal flowers. Despite what they may look like, they are actually power flowers. Jump onto one of the stands, and take the power flower that is on it. Since you are Luigi, the power flower will make you invisible. Run through the mirror, and you will find yourself in the other half of the room. Go across the floor, all the way to the door that is in this other half of the room. Enter the door, and you will find yourself in a completely white room. The only thing in the room is a power star. Take the power star and get out of that strange room! -------------------------------------------------- Secret Star 22: Chief Chilly Challenge 8 Red Coins -------------------------------------------------- Required Character: Luigi For this challenge, you need to be Luigi. As Luigi, go to the room that holds the entrance to Snowman's Land. On the wall opposite of the entrance to Snowman's Land, there is a picture of Luigi. When you look at the Luigi picture in the mirror, however, you will see Wario. There are several flower stands in the room, and two of them have power flowers on them. Jump onto a stand a take a power flower. It will make Luigi invisible, so he can run through the mirror and jump into the Wario picture. When you have done that, you will enter Chief Chilly's world. When you begin, you will find yourself on a lone, snowy area. There is a small slide extended out from the area. Head down the slide, going until the slide suddenly drops off. As soon as you drop off the slide, a gust of wind will come up and blow you into the air. Just keep pressing forward until it drops you on the piece of land with two bullies. Turn left, and head to area with four tilting platforms. Make your way across the four square platforms until you reach solid ground again. There will be a bully there. Now, head to the right, and wait until the moving wire platform comes near. When it does, jump onto it and ride it. Make sure you are in position to take the red coin that is goes past. After you have collected the red coin and are on the other side, jump onto the solid platform that is there. When you are on the solid platform, head to the right. Go to the edge of the platform that is next to the sign, and walk off of it. A gust of wind will blow you into the air. If you were in the middle, you will get a red coin as you go up. If you do not get the red coin, jump back into the wind and try again. After you fly up from the gust of wind, it will drop you into a small, freezing pond. There red coin is on the surface of the pond. Get the red coin, and then get out of the pond. Walk around the platform until you find the fence that separates you from the area with all of the bullies in it. When you find it, jump over the fence and into the area with all of the bullies. Run straight across the area with the bullies in it, and jump up to collect the red coin that is there. When you are at the end of that area, jump over the fence and onto the next area. Go to the end of that area, and you will see several large, moving blocks of ice. These blocks of ice move back and forth, and up and down. They move very close together at times, so as soon as two blocks of ice are lined up you need to run across to the next block of ice. Keep doing this until you are once again on solid ground. Also, there are two red coins in the midst of these moving blocks of ice. They are in the middle, so they are easy to spot. Make sure you have both of them before you get to the other side. Once you are on the other side, run forward. Go just to the right of the large, metal bars. There is a piece of land there that is moving up and down. When it is low enough, jump onto it. Run forward to the end of it. There is another piece of land that is moving up and down. When the two pieces of land are lined up, jump onto the higher piece of land. On that higher piece of land, you will see another piece of land, moving backward and forward. Wait until the piece of land that you are on is high, and then jump onto the piece of land that is moving back and forth. As soon as you land on the piece of land that is moving back and forth, jump up to the solid piece of land. Go along that solid piece of land until you come to the ? box. Break it open, and take the power flower that is inside of it. Run along the fence until you come to an edge that has no fence. Drop off of that edge, onto the ground. When you are on the ground, run along the edge of the wall until you come to several wire bars. Run through the bars, and take the red coin that is behind them. After you have that red coin, run along that area until you come to the Mario cap. Put it on to become Mario. When you have done that, make your way back up to where the ? box is. Break open the ? box, and take the power flower that is inside it. Float up a short distance, and the float forward to the massive, circular platform that is there. The final red coin is above the middle of that platform. When you have the final red coin, go to the ? box that is on the massive platform. Break it open, and take the power flower that is inside of it. Float back over to the place that you were just at. The power star is on the lowest area of that place. Once you get it, you will complete this challenge. -------------------------------------------------- Secret Star 23: Chief Chilly Challenge Secret Star -------------------------------------------------- Required Character: Luigi In order to get this power star, you need to have Wario unlocked. Once you are ready to tackle this challenge, switch to Luigi since he is the only one that can enter Chief Chilly's world. Once you are Luigi, go to the room that holds the entrance to Snowman's Land. On the wall opposite of the entrance to Snowman's Land, there is a picture of Luigi. When you look at the Luigi picture in the mirror, however, you will see Wario. There are several flower stands in the room, and two of them have power flowers on them. Jump onto a stand a take a power flower. It will make Luigi invisible, so he can run through the mirror and jump into the Wario picture. When you have done that, you will enter Chief Chilly's world. When you begin, you will find yourself on a lone, snowy area. There is a small slide extended out from the area. Head down the slide, going until the slide suddenly drops off. As soon as you drop off the slide, a gust of wind will come up and blow you into the air. Just keep pressing forward until it drops you on the piece of land with two bullies. Turn left, and head to area with four tilting platforms. Make your way across the four square platforms until you reach solid ground again. There will be a bully there, as well as Wario's cap. Pick up the cap to turn into Wario. Now that you are Wario, jump onto the moving wire platform when it comes near. Ride it across the abyss, and jump off of it when it reaches the next solid piece of land. Once you are on that solid piece of land, turn left. You will see a ? box, as well as a narrow path. Strong winds blow across the narrow path, so you will have to gain a lot more weight in order to get across. Go to the ? box, and break it open. A power flower will come out. Take the power flower, and you will turn into Metal Wario. Now, run across the narrow path. The strong winds will not affect you since you are metal. On the other side of the path, there is a solid piece of land with a black brick block on it. Punch the black brick block to break it open, and then take the power star that is inside of it. ------------------------------------- Secret Star 24: Toad's 2nd Power Star ------------------------------------- Recommended Character: None After you have rescued Wario, there is an easy power star that you can get. Once you enter the castle, head up the center set of stair and go in the center door. When that is done, run up the spiraling stairs in order to get to the second floor. On the second floor, run around to the back of the room, staying next to the object that encloses the sets of stairs. In the back, next to the object in the center of the room, will be a Toad. Talk to him, and he will give you a power star. ------------------------------------- Secret Star 25: Toad's 3rd Power Star ------------------------------------- Recommended Character: None This power star takes little time to acquire; it is a gift from a Toad. Once you have fifty power stars, you can take this power star. When you enter the castle, head up the center set of stairs and the center door. Go up the spiral staircase until you come to the second floor. Make two sharp lefts, and you will see another staircase. Go up that staircase, and through the star door at the top. You will then be on the third floor. Head towards the right of the large clock, and you will see a Toad. Talk to him, and he will give you this power star. --------------------------------------------- Secret Star 26: Over the Rainbows 8 Red Coins --------------------------------------------- Recommended Character: Mario For this level, head all the way up to the room that holds the entrance to Tick Tock Clock. When you enter the room, turn to the left. On the left wall, you will see a small opening. Run towards the wall, and do a triple jump into the opening. You will enter another portion of the room, and there will be a hole in that portion of the room. Drop down the hole to enter this area. When you enter, you will find yourself on a lone cloud in the sky. Eight red coins are scattered throughout the area, and you need to collect them all. When you begin, go to the left and collect the red coin that is there. When you have the first red coin, turn around and walk to the ? box. As soon as you are under the ? box, turn left.
