The level begins in a small, one-screen room where some Big Blocks and one Mega ? Block are found. A Warp Pipe takes the player to the second area of the tower.

The second area features a giant Snake Block, which goes upwards, coming across Amps and their larger sub-species, Spinners, a Red Ring, a small Snake Block as well as two Star Coins. When the Snake Block clashes with a wall, stone blocks on the ceiling break, thus revealing the Checkpoint Flag. The Warp Pipe is located on the right wall.

There is a secret Warp Pipe below the giant Snake Block on the left wall (pictured). Mario needs to go through the same area the Snake Block traveled. Entering it leads to a hidden room with three coins and a second Warp Pipe.

Both Warp Pipes take Mario to the third room, where he encounters bigger Spinner rows and more Big Amps. A P Switch can be found on the left wall that creates Blue Coins. The third Star Coin is found as the giant Snake Block rises. A Hidden Block containing a 1-Up Mushroom is located on the right wall. To the far left is the door to the boss room. An Invisible Block hides an item on the wall next to the door.

The boss of this tower is Boom Boom. Before the fight begins, Kamek swoops in and enlarges Boom Boom. Boom Boom is able to do the attacks given to him in the previous towers, which includes jumping and performing a spin attack.

Star Coins
