Sluggy the Unshaven's Fort is the mid-stage castle of stage 5 in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.

Enemies and terrain

The fort features many spikes and moving platforms, a large ridable slime wearing a platform on his head, and an unusual spinning platform which functions much like a chomp rock on a track.

The titular enemy of the fort, the sluggy, is a small hairy slime which can be found throughout the level, in two colors of off-white; slightly red and slightly blue. These slimes habitually fall off the ceiling onto Yoshi.

Another notable slime is a red and yellow pudding which falls to pieces if trod upon, but recombobulates again after a few moments. These slimes can be swallowed and spit out as a bouncing ball.

The level is also populated with large slimes which cling to the ceiling and swing back and forth like a pendulum. When Yoshi gets too close, the slime will grab Mario off his back, and retract. When the ceiling is too high, Yoshi will be unable to reach him. However, hanging slimes on high ceilings can't reach all the way to the floor, so it can sometimes be safe to crouch under them.

The pendulum slimes can be made to stay still by being shot with an egg or having an enemy spit at them.

The level also has the only normal Chain Chomp in the game.

Walkthrough

At the start, the player is between a pendulum slime and a door. The door leads to a

Not too far ahead is a very large, yellow platform that Yoshi can go across and get eggs, unless the platform were blocked off by stairs. Once Yoshi goes up those stairs, he will have to travel to the right, avoiding spikes and enemies on his way. There is also a short part where he can go across a round platform that rolls across spikes, grabbing coins on the way. Farther in the level, Yoshi and Baby Mario will find a platform that can move right, up, and down. Sometimes it will stop and stretch it's up body for Yoshi to reach higher areas. But not long after, it will go back down and if Yoshi is not on the platform when it moves away, he will be stranded. Later, Yoshi will be in a tight and long room filled with miniature sluggy enemies. Once Yoshi squeezes through, he will go through a door leading to Sluggy, whom he can beat by hitting in the heart a few times.
