'''World Star''' (or '''Star World'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick. ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Pages 9, 169 and 211.</ref>) is the third special world and the ninth and final world that appears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. It has nine levels and a hidden [[Toad House]]. There are seven numbered levels, a [[Rainbow Course]], and a castle that has [[Dry Bowser]] as the boss. Blocking the levels in the world is a [[Star Coin Sign]], which requires 90 Star Coins in order to open the path. Also at the beginning of the world is a Toad House, which will appear after all Star Coins have been found. It is blocked by another sign that requires nine Star Coins to remove it, and it gives the player a [[Super Star]] for their item slot. Unlike [[World Mushroom (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Mushroom]] and [[World Flower (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Flower]], this world is unlocked after defeating [[Bowser]] rather than via [[cannon]]s, much like how [[World 9 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9]] and [[World S]] are unlocked upon defeating the final bosses of their respective games. World Star is further differentiated from the first eight worlds in that it has [[Moon Coin]]s instead of [[Star Coin]]s. Collecting all of the [[Moon Coin]]s adds a star to the player's file. Additionally, finding all of the Moon and Star Coins without using [[White Raccoon Mario]] results in the Toad Houses permanently staying in their positions without disappearing.

*[[Coin Coffer]]s
This level take place at night. It consists of many [[Brick Block]]s and [[? Switch]]es which can be used to make various groups of Brick Blocks rotate on a point. Destroying too many Brick Blocks can open up bottomless pits, though there are some [[Used Block]]s that prevent the level from becoming impossible. There is a [[Red Ring]] that has a [[Moneybag|Coin Coffer]] come out, when defeated it will give out [[Red Coin]]s.

*'''Moon Coin 1''': The player needs to hit the right brick to use the P-Switch. Once pressed, bridges will temporary open up, and the player needs to fall all the way down. Once down there, there's a Cannon Pipe, which shoots the player through the first Moon Coin.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6F7RJTZvOpg New Super Mario Bros. 2: World ★-1 All Moon Coins]</ref>
*'''Moon Coin 2''': The player needs to Ground Pound 2 rows of bricks, at the right of the Moon Coin, and then use a [[Koopa Shell]] to get it.
*'''Moon Coin 3''': The player should jump down before hitting the ? Switch to get the last Moon Coin.

This level takes place high in the sky, on top of what is supposed to be a deserted castle, where grass and other vegetation has grown on the rooftops, making this level loosely similar to [[sonicretro:Sky Sanctuary Zone|Sky Sanctuary Zone]] from [[sonicretro:Sonic the Hedgehog 3|Sonic the Hedgehog 3]]. [[Super Leaf|Super Leaves]] appear here, aiding Mario throughout the level. The level is abundant in [[Red Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Donut Lift]]s and moving platforms.
During both [[Mario]]'s and [[Gold Mario]]'s Eagle animations in ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]'', in which they gain [[Invincible Mario|invincibility]] and go on an enemy rampage, the current scenery of the game is changed to that of World Star. As it could be previously seen in ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'', it features the same vast checkerboard floor that fades into cosmic oblivion, with Super Star graphic patterns vaulting the horizon.
====Moon Coins====
*'''Moon Coin 1''': Directly above a moving platform just after two [[POW Block]]s.
*'''Moon Coin 2''': After the checkpoint, the player can see the Moon Coin above a pit. The player needs to use the Koopa Shell, on the right, in order to get the Moon Coin.
*'''Moon Coin 3''': Under some Donut Lifts, Mario will need to jump as soon as he gets the Moon Coin.

World Star (or Star World[1]) is the third special world and the ninth and final world that appears in New Super Mario Bros. 2. It has nine levels and a hidden Toad House. There are seven numbered levels, a Rainbow Course, and a castle that has Dry Bowser as the boss. Blocking the levels in the world is a Star Coin Sign, which requires 90 Star Coins in order to open the path. Also at the beginning of the world is a Toad House, which will appear after all Star Coins have been found. It is blocked by another sign that requires nine Star Coins to remove it, and it gives the player a Super Star for their item slot. Unlike World Mushroom and World Flower, this world is unlocked after defeating Bowser rather than via cannons, much like how World 9 and World S are unlocked upon defeating the final bosses of their respective games. World Star is further differentiated from the first eight worlds in that it has Moon Coins instead of Star Coins. Collecting all of the Moon Coins adds a star to the player's file. Additionally, finding all of the Moon and Star Coins without using White Raccoon Mario results in the Toad Houses permanently staying in their positions without disappearing.
