Special 2-3 is the third level in Special 2 and the fifty-fourth level overall in Super Mario 3D Land.
Layout[]
The player starts out on a small platform before moving onto a Arrow Platform that will lead them past a Rolling Spike a Coin Block and several Fuzzies. The second batch of Fuzzies have a Statue Leaf with them. Shortly after the Fuzzies the rails stop and across a platform is another Arrow Platform, which will leads past two Blokkabloks and a Rolling Spike before leading to a platform that contains the Checkpoint Flag.
The player will then jump onto another Arrow Platform, but will have to jump down almost immediately onto another Arrow Platform, if the Arrow Platform is moved backwards it will reach a ? Block which contains a Poison Mushroom. If the Arrow Platform is moved to the right it will lead to a Red Ring which will spawn five Red Coins, if the player collects them all in time they will receive either a Statue Leaf, or a 1-Up Mushroom. On the next Arrow Platform a Waterspout needs to be used to reach a higher rail, this will then have to be repeated to get onto the final Arrow Platform which goes them past more Fuzzies before the rail ends. The player then needs to jump off the Arrow Platform and onto a platform with a Warp Pipe which leads to the final area which contains several more Arrow Platform that must be used to get to the top of the Goal Pole.
