Layout
The player begins the level near a moving platform with a Red Ring above it. A group of smaller moving platforms are found lowering into the lava. More moving platforms are seen, along with a group of Brick Blocks. A moving platform with a Dry Bones on it appears, followed by one contains multiple Dry Bones. More moving platforms are encountered, along with a stationary platform. Several smaller platforms are found rising out of the lava. At the end of the area, the boss door is seen on a platform. Morton serves as the castle's boss, and the fight is identical to the one in New Super Mario Bros. U.
Star Coins
- Star Coin 1: The first Star Coin is encased inside a box made of Brick Blocks. The player must jump on top of the box and ground pound in order to retrieve the it.
- Star Coin 2: First, the player must get an Ice Flower to freeze a Dry Bones.

Alternatively, the player can jump off of the middle block just as it sinks or towards it as it rises to claim it.
- Star Coin 3: The player must jump from the last stone block in the level over the door leading to the boss fight to collect the last Star Coin.
