'''The Crimson Tower''' is a location from ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. The path leading here is unlocked after getting the red [[Mini Paint Star]] in [[Cherry Lake]], and when the red [[Big Paint Star]] in here is rescued, it will color the gate at [[Sunglow Ridge]]. {{Morton}} is the boss of this area. The [[Cat-o-Luck]] Thing can also be found here.
==Layout==
When Mario first visits the Crimson Tower, there is a gate blocking the way. He must repaint a nearby green Toad, who turns out to be a bridge builder and runs off to [[Port Prisma]]. Mario can paint the gate to discover three Toad-shaped keyholes. He must gather the three [[Chosen Toads]], each located at [[Cherry Lake]], [[Bloo Bay Beach]], and [[Daffodil Peak]], and hammer them into their keyholes.


When the gate opens, Huey is shocked to see that the tower and most of the sky surrounding it has been drained of its color. He is about to give up when he notices [[Paint Guy]]s pouring [[paint]] into a large bucket attached to an [[airship]], which still has its anchor dropped. A [[Shy Guy]] shouts at Mario to raise it, and if Mario does, he gets on board the ship. Mario must pull two pieces of [[Bowser Tape]] on his way to the steering wheel, at which he is attacked by Shy Guys and a [[Spike Guy]]. Once defeated, the ship becomes unbalanced and Huey holds the wheel while Mario must find a button to release the paint; the only switch on the ship turns out to be a self-destruct button, exploding the ship and causing the paint to fall on the tower. Before the airship explodes, the screen briefly cuts to black as text reading, "OH SCRAP..." appears on-screen. A bridge to the tower then unfolds.
'''The Crimson Tower''' is a location from ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]''. The path leading here is unlocked after getting the red [[Mini Paint Star]] in [[Cherry Lake]], and when the red [[Big Paint Star]] in here is rescued, it will color the gate at [[Sunglow Ridge]]. [[Morton Koopa Jr.|Morton]] is the boss of this area. The [[Battle_Card_(Paper_Mario:_Color_Splash)#Cat-o-Luck|Cat-o-Luck Thing]] can also be found here.


Shortly after entering the tower, Morton jumps out of the wall and goes to look for the Big Paint Star. Huey encourages Mario to explore the tower first. The Crimson Tower contains many enemies, such as Shy Guys, [[Shield Guy]]s, and [[Goomba]]s. Many conveyor belts can be found inside the tower. After passing three conveyor belts, Mario must walk up many flights of stairs while avoiding Goombas and [[Accordion Goombas]]. The next room contains Spike Guys and a conveyor belt that Mario must knock Shy Guys off of by hitting it from below.
==Layout==
First, [[Mario]] needs to bring together the three [[Chosen Toads]] found in [[Cherry Lake]], [[Bloo Bay Beach]], and [[Daffodil Peak]] in order to open the gate. Then, Mario and [[Huey]] find out that the whole area's color, including part of the sky, has been drained, with Huey stating that he might get sick. The duo then spots a giant bucket filled with the stolen red paint, which is carried by an [[Airship]] delivering the paint to [[Black Bowser's Castle]]. Before long, however, the airship comes to a sudden halt. A [[Shy Guy]] aboard the ship notices that nobody had loosened the anchor before liftoff, and asks Mario to do it for them. When Mario peeled the Bowser tape off of the anchor, however, he and Huey were accidentally carried along by the anchor when the airship's flight continued. Mario then battled the Shy Guys and their captain aboard. After the battle though, the airship became unbalanced (since Mario defeated the captain as well). While Huey tries to hold the steering wheel in place, Mario quickly hammers a blaring self-destruct button, prompting the airship to explode in a countdown of five seconds. After the explosion, the bucket will fall and repaint The Crimson Tower. A enormous bridge also rolls out from the tower to the solid ground, allowing Mario and Huey  to enter the tower.


When Mario passes the conveyor belt, Morton appears. Huey tells him about Mario, and Morton gets angry and stomps on two loose platforms, causing them to fall. Mario must use [[Cutout]] to get past the platforms.
Along the tower, Mario finds different enemies, treadmills and puzzles. He must climb to the top of it. The final part of the tower features some stairs and [[Accordion Goomba]]s. When Mario arrives to the top of the tower, he finds [[Morton Koopa Jr.]] and fights him. During the battle, Morton asks two Shy Guys to bring a pedestal where he stays until Mario defeats the two Shy Guys and breaks it with a hammer. Eventually, he will fire his hammer, and the Fire Extinguisher Thing card will be required to extinguish the fire. After successfully defeating Morton, Mario can pick the Cat-o-Luck [[Thing]] and the red [[Big Paint Star]]. While Mario and Huey fly back to [[Port Prisma]] via the red Big Paint Star, it recolors the red gate of [[Sunglow Ridge]], allowing the duo to advance afterwards.
 
In the next room, Mario confronts Morton, who is guarding the Big Paint Star. At the start of the battle, Morton brings in a pedestal and two Shy Guys. Mario must defeat the Shy Guys and knock away the pedestal to attack Morton. After taking enough damage, Morton lights his hammer on fire, and Mario must use the Fire Extinguisher Thing from [[Ruddy Road]] to put the fire out. Morton's hammer is reduced to a stick, which he still tries to hit Mario with. Once Morton is defeated, Mario can collect the Cat-O-Luck Thing and then collect the Big Paint Star, which colors in the large gate in [[Sunglow Ridge]].
 
After collecting the Big Paint Star, Mario can revisit the Chosen Toads to talk to them through the holes in the gate. When [[Piper]] and his friends are reunited, they are seen playing outside at the start of the level.
