Special 5-3 is the third level of Special 5 in Super Mario 3D Land. It is based off of World 1-4.
Layout[]
The player starts off on a platform, with a Arrow Platform next to it. The Arrow Platform goes along some rails that lead to a Waterspout that propels the Arrow Platform onto another piece of track that leads to another Arrow Platform. If the player goes past the Waterspout, they land on another part of track that leads to a 1-Up Mushroom and a Warp Box that warps to another Switchboard.
The next Arrow Platform leads past several Paragoombas and Rocket Engines before reaching some Spikes with a ? Block that contains a Poison Mushroom in it. Next to this is another Arrow Platform that goes past a Waterspout that propels it onto the next bit of track that leads past several more Rocket Engines. The Switchboard then drops onto another piece of track that leads past several Brick Blocks, one of the Blocks in the final set is a Fake Block, and then leads past some Bullet Bills and Tail Bullet Bills before leading to a Waterspout that propels the Arrow Platform into the Goal Pole.
Star Medals[]
- Star Medal 1: After the first Waterspout, if the player gets the Arrow Platform onto the left rail it leads to the Star Medal.
- Star Medal 2: The second Star Medal is on the track after a set of Rocket Engines and Paragoombas.
- Star Medal 3: After dropping down on the Reversible Platform, there are some Donut Blocks that contain the third Star Medal.
