World Bowser: Mystery House Claw Climb

This Mystery House is a test of you skill with the Cat Power-Up. If you want all 10 Green Stars, you’ll have to climb better than a real cat!

Green Star #1

It doesn’t get much easier than this! Grab a Super Bell from the nearby ? Blocks if you need it, then just climb straight up to the Green Star.

Green Star #2

Nothing too fancy here: climb up the wall lined with Coins, then jump and dash for the star.Green Star #3

Green Star #3

Now things get interesting! The Beep Blocks can send you spiraling to your doom if you time the climb wrong.

Green Star #4

Make another dash for the Green Star. Don’t get reckless and fall into the lava!

Green Star #5

It’s back to the tower you climbed in the first room, only now the Green Star is at the highest point. Remember, you can climb only so far before you slide back down to the ground, so make use of the ledges to reset your climb distance.

Green Star #6

You’re back to the second room, only now there are Crystal Blocks between you and the star. Smash through them with Claw or Pounce!

Green Star #7

The Beep Blocks in room three are now arranged differently, and you still have a short distance to climb even after you scale them. Don’t let yourself get dropped into the abyss!

Green Star #8

The Green Star has changed locations in this room; now it’s hanging dangerously over the lava. You have to scale the wall, get the star, and then Claw Drive to safety.

Green Star #9

You might be able to make it to the Green Star without using the Red POW Blocks, but there’s no good reason not to make this easier on yourself!

Green Star #10

Reaching the Green Star is actually very tough in this room. You must climb up a set of red and yellow platforms. The problem is, the moment you touch these platforms, they start to fall down into a pit. You can’t just leap up mid-climb to reach another platform and keep climbing, as you’ll run out of stamina and fall toward the ground.

You need to reach the top of a platform, stand on it to reset your stamina, and then make for the next platform and climb it. Of all the characters, Toad gives you the best chance to reach the Green Star well under the time limit. So long as you actually grab the star, the timer can read zero, but you’ll still pass the room! Good luck!
