This level is an icy cave level with 3 parts. There are floating platforms, falling Icicles, and giant falling icicles that Mario can walk on, and some enemies such as Goombas and Ice Bros..

  • Star Coin 1: In the first area, there are platforms moving towards the left, and there isa green pipe which is releasing Goombas as obstacles to the player.

The last half of this level resembles Castle Crush, a level found in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. This level features brightly colored rotating blocks that must be used to climb to higher locations. Rolling spike balls, Dry Bones, and Amps are some of the hazards that must be avoided as the floor scrolls upward. At the end of the fortress, Lemmy Koopa is found balancing on a yellow ball.

The player may activate the first POW Block they come across to get rid of the Dry Bones and, if the player wants, the first two spike balls. But they must not activate the second POW Block yet as the spike balls are required to break down the wall enclosing the Star Coin at the top. After the walls are broken down, they may activate the POW block and collect the Star Coin.
  • Star Coin 3: This Star Coin is located just before the boss door. Wall jump from the tip of the blue rotating block to get the Star Coin.

World 3-4

There are hidden blocks in this level which will turn into solid red blocks when the ! Switch is activated furthur in the game. The player starts on an ice platform with a moving ice block in front of them. A Penguin Suit is obtainable from one of the ? Blocks. The player will then meet a red Koopa Troopa and another moving ice block. Further down there is another moving ice block but this time with a Fire Bro. shooting down fireballs. A smaller moving ice block follows, then there are two large ice blocks with ice platforms and flying red Koopa Troopas. After that is the checkpoint, where the player will find two Goombas. This is followed by six fast-moving ice blocks with narrow ice platforms and another red Koopa Troopa. The path then splits into two branches here.

  • Star Coin 2: In the area with the two large ice blocks, there is a section where the player has to duck from an obstructing ice platform. The player should duck the first obstruction, then continuously wall jump in the hidden area to get the Star Coin and to stay safe when the ice block moves away and then return later.

This exit is repersented by the red flag used for secret exits throughout the game, and is the only exit available if playing for the first time or the player deactivated the red blocks. After the six moving ice blocks, there is a Roulette Block, followed by more moving ice blocks which obstructs the players path and makes them fall down into an abyss.

World 3-Castle

Lemmy's Castle is riddled with giant falling icicles and frozen floors making timed jumps difficult. There are also some segments with Bottomless Pits, which are traversed by a Ice Snake Block similar to the Snake Block seen in Roy Koopa and Larry Koopa's castles in Super Mario World. However, this one is frozen. This is also the first level to feature Bob-ombs.

Lemmy Koopa is fought again here. Kamek turns Lemmy's ball bigger so it will be harder for Mario and co. to hurt Lemmy. As he takes damage, Lemmy's ball will grow bigger in size after he is done sliding his shell to attack Mario and gang.

  • Star Coin 1: The Star Coin is located above some Donut Lifts along the first Ice Snake Block. The player has to use the rubber balls to bounce onto the donut lifts.
  • Star Coin 2: In the first section of the third area with many Bob-ombs coming out of green pipes. The player needs to destroy the ice blocks with the Bob-ombs to get the Star Coin.
  • Star Coin 3: Along the second Snake Block, there are some Donut Lifts along its path. The Snake Block will block the Donut Lift with the Star Coin. The player has to jump ahead to the Star Coin, continue jumping so they won't fall, and jump back onto the Snake Block when it returns to the bottom.
