Layout[edit]

As its name states, this level is mainly set on halls surrounded by rainbow walls, as well as colorful wooden blocks. The first part is a vertical way with Bill Blasters on each side, and the players must get to the top using two arrow lifts. Next, there is a horizontal path with some pits and some small-sized platforms with a Green Ring. Above the arrow sign is a Hidden Block with a Mini Mushroom. There are three Brick Blocks that contain 1-Up Mushrooms. This is followed by the final area, where a Blue Ring, a couple of Waddlewings and a few Bill Blasters appear. At the end of this area, there is the Goal Pole.

Star Coins[edit]
