Green Star #1
You’re given a lot of time in this level for a reason: The first Green Star is on a Mega Rabbit, and this guy is incredibly fast and difficult to catch. He leads you on a merry chase around and over obstacles and past dangerous Conkdors. Fortunately, you’ve got two things working in your favor.
First, there’s a Rabbit fairly close to where the Mega Rabbit starts off. He’s much easier to catch, and he gives up a Lucky Bell when you do reach him. This helps you dash faster.
Second, the field is dotted by many Dash Panels, and the Mega Rabbit’s run takes him close to these panels. Use them to build up speed quickly, and by no means should you do anything but run at him as fast as possible. Jumps only slow you down—even jumps over water hazards. Aim for Dash Panels, and focus on your run, and you should catch the Mega Rabbit fairly quickly.
You can touch the Rabbits and the Mega Rabbit with the touch screen, which stuns them momentarily and makes it easier to catch them.
Green Star #2
After all that running, the second Green Star is considerably easier, especially if you have the Lucky Cat Power-Up. You’ll see a Clear Pipe with a cloud platform above it. You can climb the pipe and leap up onto the platform to claim the star. You can also use a crouch jump to get on top of the pipe, and reach the star.
If you want to take a more scenic route to this Green Star, you can take the proper entrance to the Clear Pipe and use that to get to the cloud platform.It’s easy to spot this entrance: It’s right next to a Red Ring on a series of cloud platforms near the mountain.
Green Star #3
At the top of the mountain, two Conkdors protect a Character Switch. The third Green Star requires you to bring Toad to the summit to hit that Character Switch. This causes the star to appear over the precarious set of cloud platforms right in front of the Goal Pole. Remember, losing a life now will send you back to the start of the level, so be careful!
