This looks like a typical fort, with more beams of fire. I used a Super Shroom and got a Fire Flower. I skipped the 1st Star Coin over a beam of fire. I found a secret door to get a 1-up Mushroom and a 100-coin 1-up. I went up the left side and lost the Fire Flower to a fire beam. I reached the midgate and lost my Super Shroom to a fire beam, but got another. I reached the boss door. There are several platforms in the battle room. Kamek uses magic on the platforms, so they start moving right to left. Kamek will then use his magic to turn the platforms into enemies. He turned a platform into a Thwomp, which fell and took out the floor I was trying to stand on so I fell in the void.
Take 2- I used a Super Shroom and got a Fire Flower. I reached Kamek. Kamek turned platforms into Monty Moles, Koopas, and Goombas. I lost the Fire Flower to a Goomba and the Super Shroom to Kamek's magic. In between, I got in the three hits, after which Kamek just disappears, instead of going into a shell cycle. He will also disappear if Mario gets too close before he can use his magic. After being defeated, he flies off to the Airship.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii: 8- Toad Rescue -- A Fiery Escape
I lost the Super Shroom to a Podoboo, which is the enemy for this level. I saved Toad and got 3 Super Shrooms.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii: 8-3 -- Surf's Up in the Fire Sea
This level has the same music as 8-2, but the level has more lava. It moves in large waves, which conceals and reveals parts of the level, which means getting certain items is extremely dangerous and requires good timing.
Take 1- I got a Fire Flower and died in the lava.
Take 2- I got a Super Shroom and the 1st Star Coin and reached the midgate. I got the 2nd Star Coin and an Ice Flower, but lost it to a Fire Chomp and fell in the lava.
Take 3- I got a 100-coin 1-up and fell in the lava.
Take 4- I used a Fire Flower and got the 2nd Star Coin, killed a Fire Chomp, and got the 3rd Star Coin, but fell in the lava.
Take 5- I got the 2nd Star Coin, but died from the Fire Chomp.
Take 6- I decided to skip the Star Coins, because I know where they are, and getting them is costing me lives. I got a Super Shroom and made it to the end pipe and reached the goal.
I got 4 1-ups at a 1-up Toad House.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii: 8-2 -- Easily Avoiding Lava
This level starts off with more erupting volcanoes, but a pipe takes Mario underground. There are more rotating platforms and spike balls that roll up them. The music is a tropical drum remix of the underground theme, which I like.
Take 1- After going down the pipe, I got 2 Super Shrooms and lost one to a Paragoomba. I lost the other Super Shroom and died from a spike ball.
Take 2- I got a Super Shroom and got a Fire Flower. I got the 1st Star Coin, but lost my items to spike balls. I powered up at the midgate and got a 100-coin 1-up. I got an Ice Flower from 8 red coins and the 3rd Star Coin hidden in a secret area under a pipe. I then reached the goal.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii: 8-1 -- Pele is Angry
This level is very similar to one in World 8 of the prequel. The volcanoes in the background periodically erupt, raining flaming rocks down on the level. The flaming rock can take out anything but the solid rock that the level is made of, including solid white blocks, item blocks, and brick blocks. As if that weren't enough, there are lava pillars that will temporarily block your path. The only enemies are Buzzy Beetles, and to add insult to injury, the only powerups in the item blocks are Fire Flowers, and Buzzy Beetles are fireproof.
Take 1- I got a Fire Flower, but lost it to the flaming rock. I lost the Super Shroom to a lava pillar and fell in the lava.
Take 2- I got a Super Shroom. There are unstable platforms that will tilt and tip over into the lava. Over these, coins will suddenly fly into place, which is a startling distraction. I lose 2 Super Shrooms to Buzzy Beetles and died from a flaming rock.
Take 3- I got a Super Shroom, a 100-c0in 1-up, and a Fire Flower. I used a tilting metallic mushroom platform to get over a lava pillar. I lost the Fire Flower to another lava pillar. I got the first Star Coin and reached the midgate. Under a ledge I see a POW Block and some blocks over the lava. I recognize this as a place to hide a Star Coin in the sky, so I use the POW Block and coins, including the 2nd Star Coin rain down. I fell in the lava.
Take 4- I got a Super Shroom and the 2nd Star Coin. I lost the Super Shroom to a lava pillar, but go up the green pipe and reach the goal.

World 8 -- Lava / Magma a Plenty
There are some good, taken names to call World 8: Lethal Lava Land, Bowser in the Fire Sea, Melty Molten World. There is a lot of molten rock here, which is going to make my life difficult. Volcano music plays in the background. I can't see Bowser's Castle yet. Surprisingly, Kamek is the boss of 8-Fort. I thought Bowser Jr. would be.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii: 7- Castle -- Deadly Castle in the Sky
This castle brings back the spiked pillars. It also seems to be falling apart, because there is no lava, and the walls are broken up, letting in a view of the outside world.I got the 1st Star Coin and reached the midgate. After getting an Ice Flower, I killed the Sledge Bros. (sumo-sized Hammer Bros. that are too heavy to pick up) and got a 100-coin 1-up. I then lost all of my items and died on the spiked pillars.
Take 2- I got and lost a Super Shroom to a spiked pillar and died from a Sledge Bro.
Take 3- I got a Super Shroom, killed the Sledge Bros., but lose the Super Shroom to a spiked pillar. I got another one, which I lost to another spiked pillar. I reached the boss door. Kamek's magic brings up three platforms through the floor that carry Ludwig and Mario endlessly skyward. Ludwig can now shoor 4 flames at one time, and I die from the flames.
I needed items and lives. I tried to rescue Toad in World 1, but died from a Giant Goomba for a Game Over and Continue #15. I then got 1 Super Shroom, 2 Helishrooms, 3 Ice Flowers, 1 Fire Flower, 1 Starman, and 10 1-ups.
After the Game Over:
Take 1- I used a Super Shroom and got an Ice Flower, which I lose to a spiked pillar. I lost my Super Shroom to a Super Dry Bones (giant Dry Bones). I power up at the midgate and get 2 Ice Flowers, both of which I lose to spike pillars (I have to get the timing down better). I lost the Super Shroom to a Sledge Bro, and reach the boss door. It's safe to stand on the left platform to dodge the 4 flame attack. I get in 1 hit, but the platform is too small to dodge the shell cycle, so I died. I have to get off that platform immediately.
Take 2- I use a Super Shroom, which I lose to a spike pillar. I get another, but am stunned by a Sledge Bro, and I lose it. I die from a Sledge Bro.
Take 3- I use Super Shroom, get an Ice Flower, both of which I lose to spike pillars. I get a 100-coin 1-up and a Super Shroom, which I lose to a Sledge Bro. I hit Ludwig once, but fall in the void.
Take 4- I used a Helishroom, which is lost to a spike pillar. I got an Ice Flower and fell in the void.
Take 5- I used an Ice Flower, and lose it and the Super Shroom to a Sledge Bro. I die on a pillar.
Take 6- I use an Ice Flower. Super Guide appears again. I lose my items to spike pillars, get a Super Shroom, and fell in the void.
Take 7- I used a Helishroom and lose it to a Sledge Bro. I get an Ice Flower and reach the boss. I lost the Ice Flower to the flames. I got in 2 hits and immediately waited out the shell cycle on the middle platform. After the end of the 2nd shell cycle, Ludwig hovered over the middle platform where I was standing. I dodged to the left platform and got in the 3rd hit. I got the key and went to World 8.
Take 2- I got and lost a Super Shroom to a spiked pillar and died from a Sledge Bro.
Take 3- I got a Super Shroom, killed the Sledge Bros., but lose the Super Shroom to a spiked pillar. I got another one, which I lost to another spiked pillar. I reached the boss door.
