World 5-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. 2): Difference between revisions

[[Mario]] begins the level next to a fence with a [[Climbing Koopa]] on it. A fence on a track is then found, and it must be punched to reach a platform above. Mario then encounters [[Dry Bones]] and two [[? Block]]s, one of which containing a power-up. A fence moving above a [[Spike Trap|spike]] pit is found, followed by a [[Lava Bubble]] and a [[Bone Piranha Plant]] on the ceiling. A Dry Bones and more ? Blocks are found, along with another fence that moves on a track. Mario must dodge a spike pit and Bone Piranha Plants while riding the fence. Mario then arrives at the [[Checkpoint Flag]] and two more ? Blocks. He must climb on a fence with two Climbing Koopas on it, then a fence on a track. A [[Red Ring]] and more Bone Piranha Plants are then found. Another fence with a Climbing Koopa on it is found, followed by a tall fence on a track. Mario must jump onto a smaller fence to avoid falling in the lava, and must avoid a [[Big Bone Piranha Plant]]. The boss door is then found, leading to an area where Mario must get in a [[Cannon Pipe]] to be launched through Bone Piranha Plants. He must then fight [[Ludwig von Koopa]].

During Ludwig's battle, he hangs on chains and shoots three blasts at Mario. To hit him, Mario must use the Cannon Pipes. After one hit, he upgrades his blasts to four from three. After another hit, he swings on the chain, making attacks more difficult. After [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] defeat Ludwig, they see [[Princess Peach]] in a caged [[Koopa Clown Car]]. Before the Bros. can free Peach, the Clown Car traps Peach in a cage and is taken away to the final world, [[World 6 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 6]], and all the way to [[World 6-Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Castle]].
