Tips for Course 11: Wet-Dry World:

1. There are two sections to this course. To get all of the coins, you have to get all 107 coins in the first half, then get all 45 coins in the second half.

2. There are "jewels" that control the water level. When you touch the jewels, the water will move to that level.

3. The higher you jump into the picture to enter this course, the higher the water will be when you enter.

4. The only way to get the water to the highest level, is by jumping into the painting at the very top.

1. SHOCKING ARROW LIFTS: The idea here is to get to the small gray blocks with the arrows in the top. When you step on the blocks, they move back and forth in the direction of the arrows. You need to ride the blocks over to the ledge, and then hit the yellow ! box for the star. To get to the lifts, you need to get the water at the correct level. Hit the jewel on the tower in the middle of the course - the one with the 5 coins in a row on the top. Then swim over towards the tall gray tower at the far side of the course (relative to where you come in), jump on the floating platform, and jump up to the arrow lifts.
2. TOP O' THE TOWN: Get to the top of the course, go across the wood plank, jump to the platform, hit the yellow ! box for the star.
3. SECRETS IN THE SHALLOWS & SKY: Get the 5 secrets: 1) Push the metal box in the wall of the 1st ledge above the floor of the course. 2) Push the metal box on the floor, that is next to the wall, to the left. 3) Keep pushing this box under the yellow ! box, jump up and hit it, and get 10 coins and the 3rd secret. 4) Go up the ramp to the upper level of the town (not the very top level), jump up on the column, and hit the yellow ! box for coins and secret #4. 5) Step on the purple switch, run up the blocks, and hit the yellow ! box above the cage for 10 coins and the 5th secret, and get the star.
4. EXPRESS ELEVATOR--HURRY UP!: Go to the bottom of the big cage, and punch out the crate blocking the entrance to the bottom of the cage. Now go back to the top of the cage, step on the platform next to the one with the star (that is inside the cage). As soon as it starts moving down, jump off, go through the entrance you unblocked at the bottom of the cage, and get back on the other side of the elevator platform (inside the cage) before it goes back up. Ride it back up and get the star.
5. GO TO TOWN FOR RED COINS: The red coins are in the second area. To get there, you need to jump into the caged area in the corner of the 1st area, that is open on the top. You can do this by jumping very high into the painting when you come in to the course. The higher up in the painting you jump, the higher the water is when you enter. You can also shoot from the cannon over to the cage in the corner. Once you get into the cage in the corner, swim down, through the tunnel, and into the downtown area. Once there, get the 8 red coins. They are mostly in the big wood crates or boxes, and there are some on the tops of buildings. Use wall kicks to get on top of the buildings.
6. QUICK RACE THROUGH DOWNTOWN!: Get to the second area again, and this time you need to get into the cage in the corner, and climb up to the star inside the cage. To get into the cage, you must get the vanish cap on the other side of downtown, and then run until you get back to the cage. The vanish cap lets you walk right through the cage.

Tips for Course 12: Tall, Tall Mountain:

1. To get to the slide, you must jump through a stone wall. If you miss some of the coins, you can try again, as long as you get to the slide exit, and leave that star alone. Then go back, and try the slide again.
2. There are 4 coins from bombs. 3 that are together just past the lower level of chipmunks, and 1 to the left of the upper level of chipmunks. Thanks to Larry Brown for pointing out that I had missed a point, and that it was a bomb. 05/30/98

1. SCALE THE MOUNTAIN: Follow the path to the top of the mountain, and get the star.
2. MYSTERY OF THE MONKEY CAGE: Go back to the top of the mountain. Grab the monkey at the top (not the one halfway up) and then let him go. Follow him - he will knock the star out of the cage by the bridge, and down on to the ledge by the waterfall, and the rolling log. Jump down and get the star.
3. SCARY 'SHROOMS, RED COINS: Get the 8 red coins. 4 on the mushrooms, 4 by the moles, and then jump to the mushroom with the star.
4. MYSTERIOUS MOUNTAINSIDE: Work your way up the mountain, just past the cloud. You will find a part of the mountainside that you can jump through. Ride down the ramp, and at the bottom, jump down the chute. You will come out by the star.
5. BREATHTAKING VIEW FROM BRIDGE: Back up to the top. Step on the purple switch, and run to the stone bridge. If you look at the star in the waterfall, you will notice that a block has appeared in front of it. Jump on the block, and into the waterfall to get the star. But hurry, blocks created by the purple switch don't last long.
6. BLAST TO THE LONELY MUSHROOM: Jump into the cannon, and blast to the star on the mushroom. The Bob-omb buddy that will open the cannon is on a ledge, just below and between the wooden bridge, and the pool by the rolling log. One of the small mushrooms where the 4 red coins are is a warp down to the path to the cannon.

Tips for Course 13: Tiny-Huge Island:

Tips for Course 14: Tick Tock Clock:

1. If you jump into the clock when the minute hand is on the 12, then the clock works will be stopped when you get inside. The clock works will work differently depending on where the minute hand is when you jump in.

1. ROLL INTO THE CAGE: Start by going up the steps, across the conveyor belt, jump on the block (watch out it doesn't flip you off!), jump to the platform, and jump to the path. Follow it up to the 3 blocks. Jump from 1 to the next to the path. (tip: the blocks sort of "bounce" before they roll over. If you jump straight up after they bounce, just before they roll, you will be in the air when the block rolls, and will drop back onto it after it is done. Then you can continue to the next). Follow the path to the platform with the second hand, and cross it to another conveyor belt. Cross the 3 or 4 rotating hexagon platforms, and you will see a conveyor going into a cage with the star.
2. THE PIT AND THE PENDULUMS: Start off by going to the cage with the 1st star, but jump on top of the cage instead of going into it. Follow the path to the elevator platform, then climb the pole on the next platform. Run across the platform at the top of the pole, past the windup flipper enemy, and jump to the rotating triangle platform, and then to the platform beyond. You will be on a path that leads by two pendulums. Get past them to get the star.
3. GET A HAND: Start off by following the same route as star 1, but this time when you get to the rotating second hand, jump on it. Let it carry you around to the far side of the chamber, where you will see the star. Make a small jump from the end of the hand to the star. If you try and run and jump, you will probably jump too high and end up falling.
4. STOMP ON THE THWOMP: Start off by going the same route as star 2, but when you climb the pole, jump up to the platform to the right of the platform at the top of the pole. Then jump on the elevator platform, and when it gets to the top, jump to the next fixed platform. (or, when the elevator platform gets to the top, you can use the two rotating platforms to get to the fixed platform.) The fixed platform leads a short path to either another platform or a mesh platform. Jump to the regular platform. Up to the right is a rotating block fastened to the wall. Jump to it, then jump up to the left to another one fastened to the wall, then right to a fixed platform. From here, you need to jump up left to the next platform. This will probably take a running double jump. Follow the path past the four moving bars (that try to push you off the path), and then jump to each of the 3 conveyors. These are moving in different directions, so be careful. Follow the path to the two rotating flipper boards (past the three rotating flipper boards to the side of the path). Time your jumps to land on each of the two boards and on to the path beyond. Careful! Next, follow the path to the two rotating triangles (notice that these "bounce" before they rotate just like the square blocks). Stop on the start of the path just beyond. Here you need to wait for the second hand that will come by. Watch out for the fire shooting black sphere while you wait! When the second hand gets there, jump on it, and go to about the middle of it (if you stand on the red arrowhead, you will get knocked off soon!). Stand on the second hand until you see the moving conveyor leading to the thwomp. Jump on the conveyor. You now need to do a running double jump timed to get you on the top of the thwomp. Then from there jump to the platform with the star!! Man, this one was a tough one (I had not done this one for over a year, so it took a while to do it again to get the instructions.) Thanks to Philip for asking for instructions on this star to force me to finally update my page! 08/15/98
5. TIMED JUMPS ON MOVING BARS : Start off by going the same route as star 4, but this time when you get to the spot with either the 2 rotating blocks fastened to the wall, or the mesh platform, choose the mesh platform. Past the platform are three moving bars that pop out of the wall. You need to jump from bar to bar and into the cage at the top to get the star. 08/15/98
6. STOP TIME FOR RED COINS: If you move the opposite way at the start of the course, and go past the bombs and down a level, you will see some rotating flipper boards. You will also see some red coins. All of the coins are above this area. You can either jump up from flipper to flipper, or go up to the platform where the rotating second hand is, and there is an opening on the side of the platform above all of the red coins and flippers, and you can jump down and get the coins. The trick here is to jump into the clock with the minute hand on the 12 to start the course, which stops time (and the clock movements).

Tips for Course 15: Rainbow Ride:

1. To get the 6 blue coins, stomp on the blue coin block, and then do wall kicks starting at the 1 blue coin you can see all the way up the channel to the top, where there are 5 more blue coins. The Bob-omb buddy is up there as well - to open the cannon for you.
2. When you get off of a flying carpet, you must get back on again quick, or it will go away. The carpet will start to flash before it goes away. This let's you get off to get some coins, and get back on.
