Super Mario 3D World: Star-1 -- Rainbow Run

After beating Bowser, a new world opens up. The Sprixie Princesses are gathered around a rock in World 1. Approach them and the rock reveals a rocket that takes you to a bonus world, World Star. Lumas float about this world.

The first part of the level involves running around rainbow-colored discs. The first few discs have ring lasers, with mice jumping over them. Over the second disc is an invisible block with a Super Bell. Grab it and go over the rainbow-colored cylinders past the Biddybuds. When you get to a set of brick blocks over a cylinder, stand on the bricks and climb up to an alcove above. The pipe in the alcove takes you to a room with a P-Switch near you and two in the background. Hit the P-Switch to make the Green Star balls appear. Only manipulate one ball at a time and move the flip-switches to make them land on the P-Switches. The balls can go onto either switch, but both switches must be activated to make the first Green Star appear. Ahead are more mice running on cylinders in front of the warp box.

The warp box will take you to the midpoint, where Plessie awaits. Stay on the right side of the water, which isn't fenced off to prevent you from falling off. On the right side is the stamp. At the end, see if you can steer Plessie into all off the Biddybuds. If you clear them all out, you'll get a lot of coins. On the back wall, directly ahead, is an unlit torch. Also on the back wall invisible block with a Fire Flower. Light the torch and the wall drops away, revealing a cloud cannon. It blasts you to an area of tiles to light up. Hit the POW Blocks to clear them faster, as well as use the Mega Mushroom in the invisible block on the lower right. Or use the Touch Screen. Either way, once all of the tiles are lit up, it reveals 8-bit Link. The Legend of Zelda music plays and the second Green Star appears. Grab it and drop down the main level. Up ahead are more rainbow discs. One of them has a Green Ring, which will give you the third Green Star. Cross over more cylinders, swing on the trapeze and go past the Biddybuds to reach the warp box. There are P-Switches leading up the stairs to the flagpole. The last one will rain coins.

The stamp is of the flagpole.
