It’s worth noting that if Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury players end up collecting all of the green stars, along with some other tasks, they’ll have access to a special Crown World with extra challenges for the most hardcore of Mario fans.

Green Star 1: To get started, the first green star is a simple one. Once the level begins, players should immediately notice three Goomba statues made of sand. By destroying the third one, players will be rewarded with the first green star. It can be ground-pounded with any character or it can be destroyed with an item like a Boomerang. The other statues can be destroyed too for a few coins.

 

Green Star 2: The second green star in World 5-1 of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury is definitely the hardest one for players to locate. If gamers look in the large body of water that surrounds the stage, they’ll notice a big shadow in the water. Walk over to the hole and there will be a green pipe in there that will take players to a challenge room. Complete the room and the next green star will be the prize.

Green Star 3: And for the final green star in this stage, run all the way to the right side of the stage to find a large square hole in a wall. Inside, players can find Captain Toad being attacked by some enemies. Save his little Toad life and the explorer will reward players with the last star.

Stamp: And as for the stamp, it’s found in the next section of the stage after players collect all five keys scattered about the beach. The section takes players on a ride through a tunnel with Plessie. Right before the ride comes to an end, there will be some wooden structures on the right-hand side that will need to be jumped across. The stamp for World 5-1 will be at the end of the last platform.

Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury is now available exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.
