Jungle of the Giants, or Soda Jungle-1, is the first main level of Soda Jungle in New Super Mario Bros. U. It is unlocked via completion of The Mighty Cannonship, Blooper's Secret Lair, or Piranha Plants on Ice, and its own completion opens the path to a Red Toad House, Bridge over Poisoned Waters, and Bramball Woods. The fifth Nabbit chase occurs here.

Layout[edit]

The level begins with a Goomba on a structure of Mega Blocks, with a Mega ? Block containing a power-up above it. A row of Big Goombas is then found, along with two Big Koopa Troopas. A ? Block containing a power-up is blocked by Brick Blocks, which can be destroyed with a Big Koopa Troopa's shell. More Big Goombas, a Big Koopa Troopa, a Goomba, and a Big Piranha Plant in a Warp Pipe follow. More Big Koopa Troopas and a Big Goomba are found near a row of Mega Blocks and a Mega ? Block. A portion of the ground with Big Goombas, Big Koopa Troopas, and Goombas is found, with passages that can be accessed with a Big Koopa Troopa's shell. Another structure of Mega Blocks is found, with Warp Pipes acting as platforms. The Checkpoint Flag is found, along with more Warp Pipes with Big Koopa Troopas and Big Piranha Plants. Another structure of Brick Blocks follows. More Big Goombas, a Big Piranha Plant, and a Big Koopa Troopa are located before a section of Mega Blocks leading to the Goal Pole.

Star Coins[edit]

Image Location
A Star Coin from Jungle of the Giants The first Star Coin is found in a path under the main part of the level. The player needs to use one of the Big Koopa Troopa's shells to clear a path to the coin, as groups of Brick Blocks are in the way.
A Star Coin from Jungle of the Giants The second Star Coin is in a Warp Pipe a short way past the Checkpoint Flag. The room contains a P Switch that clears a row of Brick Blocks out of the way, allowing the player to Wall Jump to the Star Coin. A flight powerup such as a Super Acorn can also be used to reach it.
A Star Coin from Jungle of the Giants The third Star Coin is found next to the Goal Pole, reachable from a nearby Big Block. A flight powerup can be used to obtain it, as well as a Super Star found earlier in the level.
