Layout
This level features more poison. To begin, Mario needs to swing on the vines in order to get to each platform. The player should soon see a paddle wheel, and then they should use it to again jump onto land. When Mario finds a Koopa Paratroopa in the way, he can jump on it to get a boost, which Mario must use to get the first Star Coin. This is also used to reach some faraway ledges. To get the second Star Coin, Mario should use a Koopa Paratroopa to bounce up to a vine above him. Mario should swing into the Warp Pipe to reach a cave with the Star Coin inside. The player should notice two green pipes and a yellow pipe together. Mario should enter the lowest one to get the third Star Coin, and after this, Mario reaches the pole.
