Ricco Tower

Ricco Tower is a place in the game Super Mario Sunshine. It is located in Ricco Harbor and is surrounded by girders and Wind Spirits. In every Episode except Episode 4, the tower's entry way is blocked by metal bars. Episode 4, The Secret of Ricco Tower has Mario entering the tower to get the Shine Sprite within. When Mario first enters the tower, Shadow Mario steals F.L.U.D.D. and the secret level begins. The secret level contains long spinning wooden blocks, moving gears, and, like most secret levels, two 1-Up Mushrooms. It is unknown what the tower has actually been placed there for besides to house this secret level.

Ricco Tower made a minor appearance in Mario Power Tennis in the Ricco Harbor Court.

 * The secret level appears in Super Mario Galaxy 2, with minor changes, under the name of Twisty Trials Galaxy.
