World 5-2 is the twenty-fourth level of Super Mario 3D Land.
Layout[]
The level features several top-down rooms in a maze-like pattern, filled with traps, lava pits, and enemies. The first few rooms lead in a straight path, featuring spiked bars and Spinies. Upon reaching a circular room with a spinning spiked bar, Mario will find the level's Checkpoint Flag by going up. At the end of this next room, there is a Question Block that will send Mario into a brief bonus level to try obtaining a Star Medal. Following this room is one with a long-spiked bar that moves at a fast pace. Past here, Mario finds the last room of the level. This room holds a doorway leading to the Flagpole of the level.
Star Medals[]
- Star Medal 1: In the circular room, Mario finds the first Star Medal by going down.
- Star Medal 2: If Mario is Fire Mario, he can continue going right from the very beginning and light the four torches in a room with a steel gate. The second Star Medal is on the other side.
- Star Medal 3: In the room with the long-spiked bar, Mario can obtain the final Star Medal at the far end.
