Complete Part 94 and Special 7-2 in Super Mario 3D Land, including Boomerang Bros. strategies and Star Coin locations.
- 1At the end of Part 94, stomp the lower Boomerang Bro., avoiding his boomerangs and those from the Boomerang Bro. above.
- 2Time your jump to the platform with the second Boomerang Bro. to avoid his projectiles, then stomp him.
- 3Jump into the Warp Box to your right.
- 4After warping, hop onto the tightrope. Hit the first ? Block and grab the Star Coin after it bounces right.
- 5Continue right, jump off the tightrope, and defeat the two Boomerang Bros.
- 6Move north and jump onto either tightrope.
- 7Continue north. When you move underneath the tightrope above, jump onto it and hit the ? Block for a Boomerang Flower. Grab it and jump back down to the tightropes below.
- 8Continue to the end and stomp the two Boomerang Bros. there.
- 9Enter the Warp Pipe.
- 10Allow the Boomerang Bros. to jump before attempting to defeat them. As soon as they complete their jump, approach and stomp them.
- 11Use the rubber platform to jump up to the tightropes. Jump up normally to the tightrope second from the top, then make a large jump to reach the top tightrope.
- 12Star Coin Alert! #2: Move to the right edge of the tightrope, jump off onto the small platform, and jump up to grab the Star Coin. Jump back onto the tightrope and move back left.
- 13Jump north onto the platform at the left side of the tightrope.
- 14Jump onto either of the tightropes to the north and to the platform on the other side.
- 15Stomp the Boomerang Bro. and hit the Roulette Block there.
- 16Jump onto the tightrope leading east, jump off onto the platform, and stomp the Boomerang Bro. there.
- 17Move north, stomp the next Boomerang Bro., then east and stomp the final two.
- 18Star Coin Alert! #3: Instead of hitting the Warp Box, note the orange rubber platform below and to the south. Drop down onto this platform, grab the Star Coin, and jump back up to the platform above. Enter the Warp Box.
- 19Defeat the final Boomerang Bro. then jump up onto the tightrope to your north.
- 20Wait for the ? Block to move so it is directly south of the Goal Pole (the closest it gets to it) and hit it to freeze it in place.
- 21Make a large jump up onto the frozen ? Block.
- 22Stand on the southern edge of the block and take a running jump off the north edge with as much momentum as possible. Jump onto the top of the Goal Pole and collect your prize: a magical 1-Up!
- 23Course Clear!
- 24Special 7-2 Walkthrough: Run north-east onto the first set of Beat Platforms. Run along them as they appear, moving back onto the wooden platform.
- 25Just walk to the next set, running if they appear before you get there. If you run, you'll reach them before they begin appearing again and the Cosmic Clone (an enemy that mimics your movements) will catch up before you can move.
- 26Move up the set of platforms and onto the main platform at the top.
- 27Star Coin Alert! #1: Run north-east so that you're south-east of the easternmost ? Block. Take a running jump up onto the block and then jump again up into the Star Coin above to grab it. Drop down onto the platform below.
- 28Run underneath the ? Blocks. The small ? Blocks contain one coin each; the Large ? Block contains multiple coins. Keep hitting the Large ? Block as you run along its length so that you're not standing still, allowing the Cosmic Clone to catch up. Hit the small ? Blocks once each too.
- 29Run north-west and enter the door there.
- 30Run south-west, timing your arrival at the first set of Platform Blocks so that they begin appearing when you get there.
- 31If you want to grab the red ring to your south and subsequently all of the red coins, do so, but it's hard and not really worth it.
