+ Clock

Timers are items that appear in Super Mario Galaxy 2. These appear in several Speedy Comet missions and add ten seconds to the player's time limit, which starts at either twenty or thirty seconds. The player must collect these in order to complete the level. They only appear in the Speedy Comet missions for Sky Station Galaxy, Bowser's Lava Lair, Bowser's Gravity Gauntlet, Bowser's Galaxy Generator, and Stone Cyclone Galaxy. Taking shortcuts in a mission will often cause players to miss them.

Its appearance is a green clock with a knob on top. The minute hand is pointed to the top. It spins around continuously until the player grabs it. Timers will reappear in Super Mario 3D, with a similar purpose.
