Master Stage 9: Spinwheel Bullet Bill Base in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker! Find all the Diamonds, the Pixel Toad, and the Golden Mushroom with this step-by-step guide.

Alright, let's tackle Stage 9: Spinwheel Bullet Bill Base! This one's all about timing and using those spinwheels to your advantage. Don't worry, we'll get that Golden Mushroom and all the Diamonds.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start in an area with a spinwheel. Head straight forward and take a right at the end. Use the spinwheel to rotate the platform towards the right. After the first turn, you'll see an alcove on your right – that's where Diamond #1 is waiting!
  2. 2
    Now, rotate the platforms again using the spinwheel. You want to position it so the staircase that was previously under Diamond #1 is now accessible for you to climb. Wait for the Bullet Bills to pass, then quickly move forward. Turn the Bill Launchers away from you, towards the gray bricks. Before grabbing Diamond #2, rotate the Bill Launchers to the right. This will blast the bricks that were blocking another staircase. Once that's done, release the launchers and collect Diamond #2.
  3. 3
    Head back to the first spinwheel. Rotate it so the staircase directly in front of you is facing you, allowing you to climb up. At the top, drop down. You'll need to make your way to the third spinwheel, so keep an eye out for the Bullet Bills and avoid them. Once you reach the third spinwheel, use it to aim the Bill Blaster at the moving platform. Blast both the blocks on the platform to open the path to Diamond #3.
  4. 4
    After collecting Diamond #3, turn the platform sideways. This will create a path for you to cross into an alcove in the wall on the other side. Go through the tunnel. You'll find another spinwheel. Use it to reveal the Star, which has been hidden in the lava! But wait, there's more! Keep turning the platform with this spinwheel to reveal a hidden alcove containing the Golden Mushroom!

Pixel Toad Location:

  • Proceed forward from the start and turn right. Keep going straight until you hit a wall. Turn your camera 90 degrees to the right. Wait for the Pixel Toad to jump out of the lava to the right of the rotatable platform.
Tips
  • Timing is key with the Bullet Bills and the Bill Launchers. Don't rush in too early, or you might get hit!
  • Pay close attention to which way the spinwheels are pointing and how they affect the platforms and obstacles.
  • The final spinwheel is crucial for both the Star and the Golden Mushroom, so make sure you explore its full range of motion.
