SECRET EXIT - Unlocks 'Green Switch Palace'

  1. Play the level until you reach the section with only vertically rising yellow rock columns.
  2. When you reach the second green pipe coming from the ceiling, enter it.
  3. In the new area where the screen does not move, hit the block and go right.
  4. Avoid or defeat the charging Chuck (watch out for its footballs) and proceed to the yellow blocks.
  5. Go right and use a spin jump (a jump performed while spinning) to smash the blocks containing a blue Koopa Shell (a turtle shell that can be kicked).
  6. Pick up the blue Koopa Shell and throw it upwards at the furthest block to the right of the blocks on the left.
  7. This action will cause a vine to appear from that block.
  8. Climb the blocks, ascend the vine, pick up the key, and run into the keyhole to activate the secret exit.
Tips
  • Collect as many coins as possible at the start of the level.
  • Be aware of the auto-scrolling camera and time your movements accordingly.
  • Do not wait too long when the yellow rock appears, or you will be crushed.
  • The secret exit requires precise timing and the use of a blue Koopa Shell.
