New Super Mario Bros. U: Rock-Candy Mines- Fort -- Grinding-Stone Tower

This Fort has lots of spiked balls rolling around. There are moving pipes in the level that push them around. The level also features Bony Beetles. Over a horizontal green pipe is a hidden area with a block with a Mini Mushroom. This will make the level more difficult, but you'll need it to get some of the Star Coins. There is a mini pipe on the left wall. Dodge a large spike ball and run under it to get the first Star Coin. The second Star Coin is on the right side in a hidden area with three spike balls under the midpoint. Do not get a power-up yet; you have to be Mini Mario to get the third Star Coin.  Above the midpoint are more moving pipes and spike balls. In an alcove to the left are some coins. The alcove above it and to the right has a Red Coin Ring. Next are lots of moving pipes and spike balls dropping down. There are few safe spots, so stay alert. As you climb, you'll see spots where the spike balls are coming from. One of them on the right wall is next to a mini pipe. With good timing, dodge the spike balls and go through the pipe. This leads to a vertical area with large spike balls rolling around on platforms. With good timing, jump straight up to the top of the level, carefully jumping up to each platform. At the top is the third Star Coin and a pipe to the red goal. This opens the path to Rock-Candy Mines-6.

 If you do not go after the third Star Coin, continue up the maze of pipes and spike balls to the boss door. This time, Kamek gives Boom Boom wings. Boom Boom flies around and swoops down, but does not land. You'll need good timing to stomp him. Stand nearby so you can stomp him as soon as he gets up, because he flies off quickly. Defeating him opens the path to Rock-Candy Mines-3 and -4.
