[[Mario]] starts in a tight space at the top of the screen. He must run across the starting platform, encountering a large pool of lava at the end. To traverse this lava, Mario must ride a [[Snake Block]]. The first [[Dragon Coin]] can be found at the beginning of the Snake Block's path. As the Snake Block moves across the pool of lava, Mario must follow it and avoid the bouncing [[Podoboo]]s. After some time, the Snake Block will reach the end of the lava; however, it has not reached the end of its path yet. Mario must stay on the Snake Block and ride it across a bed of spikes. Some of these spikes are [[Falling Spike]]s. Three [[Dragon Coin]]s can be found in the middle of the bed of spikes. After Mario gets past the spikes, the Snake Block will fall into a [[Pit (obstacle)|bottomless pit]].

After the Snake Block segment of the castle is finished, Mario must jump onto a platform at the top of the screen and traverse across another tight space of three short platforms, this time with spikes at the top. There is a [[P-Switch]] in the middle of the space, which Mario can activate to obtain a [[1-Up Mushroom]] in a cage of blocks at the top of the screen; however, doing this will also free an additional [[Gray Bowser Statue]] from the cage. Next, Mario must traverse across a long mechanical bridge spanning across a pool of lava, while avoiding three Podoboos and [[Gray Bowser Statue]]s shooting flames at him. After crossing the bridge, Mario will find three [[Stretch Block]]s suspended above a wide [[bottomless pit]]. Above the first Stretch Block, there is a green [[Switch Block]] that can be activated in the [[Green Switch Palace]] and contains a power-up. Mario must jump across the Stretch Blocks to cross the bottomless pit, while avoiding more bouncing Podoboos and a single Gray Bowser Statue between two blocks. The final Dragon Coin can be found above the second Stretch Block. After crossing the bottomless pit and avoiding one last Gray Bowser Statue, Mario can finally open the [[door]] to the boss battle with [[Roy Koopa]].
