Special 1-Castle (Super Mario 3D Land)

Special 1-Castle, is the fifty-first level of Super Mario 3D Land. Upon beating the level, Luigi becomes a playable character, and can be used to play in any level of the game.

Layout
In design and layout, the level is based off of World 1-Castle, however, Mario has only 30 seconds on his clock to beat the level. To compensate this, the level is riddled with + Clocks to raise Mario's timer. After passing through the first half of the level, Mario is confronted by Dry Bowser, and a battle similar to those against Bowser throughout the game ensues.

Enemies
Enemies that appeared in Special 1-Castle:
 * Prongo
 * Podoboo
 * Firebar
 * Hammer Bro.
 * Thwomp

Boss Battle
Dry Bowser's attack patterns are virtually the same of the Fake Bowser fights from the game. Cosmetically, Dry Bowser's breath attacks are a blue flame whereas the original Bowser attacks are a fiery orange. Dry Bowser is defeated in the same way Fake Bowser is – by using the switch at the end of the bridge to his castle. By the switch, Mario can also obtain a 100-second + Clock.

Collectibles

 * The first Star Coin can be obtained by jumping on top of the long ? Block past the large gears early in the level.
 * The second Star Coin is found above a + Clock after a confrontation with two Hammer Bros.
 * The final Star Coin is above the second Thwomp of the level.
