Don’t stand too close to the edge of any of the swinging platforms. The closer they are to the edge, the deeper they dip into the lava! Stay near the center of the platforms as they swing, until you need to make your move.
Wait at Point 4 while many of the spiked balls that fall down from the ceiling roll away harmlessly. If you rush ahead, you’ll have to dodge several balls at once. Instead, let most of them fall into the lava, then resume your journey. There’s a Star in an Invisible Block over the ? Block with one coin in it. But be quick. The spiked balls can destroy the ? Block before you use it as a platform.
As you progress across the pendulums, stop again at Point 5 while the spiked balls crush the Big Dry Bones.
Boss Battle
The final showdown with Morton takes place in a room with a floor made of dangerous columns. As you battle him, Morton jumps up into the air and executes a Ground-Pound that raises the columns in front and behind him. If you’re on either of those two columns, it will lift you up and crush you against the ceiling! One blow from a column and you’re done!
Keep your distance from Morton while he stomps around the room and only attack him as he prepares to jump up. If you stay at least two column segments away from him, his column attack won’t hurt you. Pounce on his head three times and dodge his shell attacks to come out victorious.
