Continue through the postgame sequence

World Star follows the main campaign and introduces the route to Rosalina. Mushroom and Flower revisit course ideas before the final Crown challenges.
| World | Focus | Useful milestone |
|---|---|---|
| Star | New extra courses | Super Galaxy unlocks Rosalina. |
| Mushroom | Remixed course challenges | Relearn hazards and timers. |
| Flower | Harder remixes and boss rush | Complete missing collection records. |
| Crown | Final challenges | Champion’s Road and other advanced courses. |
Prepare for different challenge types
Captain Toad routes, Mystery House sequences and Champion’s Road test different skills. A power-up plan that helps one may not apply to another.
| Challenge | Skill emphasis | Habit |
|---|---|---|
| Champion’s Road | Precise platforming | Learn safe timing windows. |
| Mystery House Marathon | Rapid short objectives | Read each room immediately. |
| Captain Toad’s Fiery Finale | Route planning without jumps | Inspect camera angles. |
| Collection cleanup | Record checking | Target stars, stamps and gold flags separately. |
Check every required collection category
World Crown access depends on completing the earlier Green Star, stamp and gold-flag requirements. Character-clear stamps are a later completion concern, not a reason to confuse the initial gate.
Practice the section causing failure
On a difficult final run, identify whether timing, camera reading or movement is the recurring problem. Use a familiar hero and repeatable inputs instead of changing everything after each fall.
