2. Hi.
======
This is my first walkthrough for a Nintendo DS game. I fell in love with this
game almost instantly after seeing it, for three reasons:
1. Peach is the main character.
2. This game is all about Peach rocking faces.
3. Mario gets kidnapped... again.
Shazam. You can't get much better than that. As a die-hard Luigi fan, I'm
pretty happy that Mario gets captured. Too bad Luigi gets jacked as well.
I decided to write this walkthrough because the DS is great and I felt like
expanding from my widely-used Pokemon walkthroughs, also found at GameFAQs.
The following is taken from the Instruction Booklet. It should give you an idea
of just what's going on in Super Princess Peach:
"This is Vibe Island, located a short distance away from the Mushroom Kingdom.
Bowser got his hands on the Vibe Scepter hidden here and used its strange
powers to capture Mario and his friends. Princess Peach was out for a walk when
the raid happened, so you can imagine her surprise when she returned to the
castle. In order to help Mario and his friends, Peach, along with a magical
umbrella named Perry headed off for Vibe Island. Will Peach and Perry manage to
save everyone?"
We already know the answer to that. Of course they will. How else do you beat
the game?

============
If you want to complete the game, you'll have to master the controls. Shouldn't
be _too_ hard... right?
This is also taken from the Instruction Booklet.
L        - (Map Screen) Open the menu; L+D-pad left or right = walk slowly.
R        - (Map Screen) Go to the Shop; R+D-pad left or right = walk slowly.
Start    - Open the Pause menu
Select   - Hold in conjunction with Start, L, and R to soft reset.
D-pad    - Run/Pick up enemies you've stomped (left/right); squat (down). In
the menu, use to make a selection.
X        - Pick things up/Put things down
A        - Jump. In the menu, use to confirm.
B/Y      - Attack with Perry/Break blocks/Throw items you're carrying. In the
menu, use to cancel or go back to previous screen.
=========================
3. A Peachy Introduction!                                               [gamon]
=========================
Once your game is loaded, press Start (you can press A to skip watching Peach
fly downwards) to come to the file select screen. Here, you can start a new
game or continue a previous one. Up to three files can be saved. The game
automatically saves when you beat a level, so there is no function to save.
If you overwrite a file, there is no getting it back. Be cautious.
On the top screen, Perry will instruct you on how to select a file. I find it
easier to use the D-pad unless I already have the stylus in hand. Use whichever
you wish and select "New Game."
The game will then introduce you to Vibe Island and take you through the back
story of how Mario gets owned.
The game takes you to Bowser's summer villa on Vibe Island, where he awaits
word on the Vibe Scepter, a mysterious item he plans on using to defeat Mario.
A black-shelled Hammer Bro rushes in, knocking the Goomba and Koopa guards
silly. Vibe Scepter in hand, he eagerly makes the report that it has been
found. Well duh. Bowser tells him to pipe down. Bowser asks the idiot (also
known as you, the player) to shut the door. Take out the stylus and tap the
door and it will shut. If you take too long, the guards will come to their
senses and shut it for you.
Hammer Bro decides to test the Vibe Scepter's power. He gives it to the
Goomba guard and asks him to infiltrate the Mushroom Kingdom and wave the Vibe
Scepter around.
Cut to the Hammer Bro and two Koopas waiting behind a bush as the Goomba
walks into Peach's Castle. When you are prompted, say "all clear" into the
microphone. If you take too long, they will get the signal anyway. A flood of
Koopas rush Peach's Castle.
In the next scene, the Koopas congratulate themselves on their success. Mario,
Luigi, and a Toad are bound with rope. Luigi waits quietly to be taken away,
but Mario is constantly fighting, trying to free himself, but to no avail. At
least Luigi knows when not to fight. Sucker.
Hammer Bro reports to Bowser that guards now watch Mario's cell, along with
Luigi and Toad. Apparently, they were just in the wrong place at the wrong
time. Hammer Bro decides to test the Vibe Scepter's limits, and so he asks
the Goomba to return.
The Goomba staggers in with the Vibe Scepter, unable to walk straight. Out of
nowhere, he immediately stops and begins dancing, frantically waving the Vibe
Scepter, releasing its power. Everyone in the room enters a frenzy of random
emotions.
Enter Princess Peach Toadstool, back from her walk with another Toad and
Toadsworth. Naturally, they are surprised at the sight before them. Inside, all
the Toads have been afflicted with the same random emotion flurry seen before.
One Toad notices a note attached to a pillar, which states that Mario has been
kidnapped. Peach immediately recognizes it as Bowser's work. The Toads are
freaking out because there's no one to save Mario.
Notice how no one cares that Luigi's gone? Man.
Anyway, Peach is gonna have none of that. She offers to go get him herself and
walks off. Toadsworth panics, as usual, and runs after her. He comes back and
instructs one of the Toads to calm everyone down or you're going to get hurt.
Use the stylus to control the stationary Toad. Use him to push other Toads off-
screen. That's pretty much it. Meanwhile on the top screen, Toadsworth gives
Peach an bad guy-hating umbrella named Perry. After that, your mini-game ends
and you are taken to the map screen of the first area.
================
4. Ladida Plains                                                        [wrld1]
================
You can press R to go to the shop, but you have no coins right now. The shop is
where you can purchase new abilities and other neat stuff. You get three
abilities by default: Slide, Hill Slide, and Bowlbrella. Pause the game at any
time and choose Abilities to see what they do. Now to enter the level. It's a
bit hard to see, but there's a black circle underneath Peach. Tap it or press A
to enter the first level.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ 1-1 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Almost immediately, you will notice a large picture of Peach on the touch
screen, surrounded by four hearts of four colors. These represent Peach's
vibes. They are, from top left going clockwise:
Joy Vibe:   Peach is surrounded by wind. If you hold the A button, she will
float. Use it when you need to fly across something, or to
dissipate fog.
Rage Vibe:  Peach is smothered in flames. Use it to get heavy, burn bridges
made of wood or melt ice in your way.
Gloom Vibe: Peach cries. Use it to run faster, jump farther, make bean sprouts
grow, or to put out fires.
Calm Vibe:  "Peach will get happy and refill her HP." Its only use is to
restore health when you can't find hearts or if you need some HP in
a pinch.
To use these vibes, simply touch them with the stylus. While in effect, they
will drain your Vibe Gauge. The speed at which it drains depends on the vibe
used. Gloom drains the slowest, followed by Calm, then Joy, and Rage will burn
through it quickly (no pun intended). Vibes will remain in effect until you
either tap the vibe again, tap a different vibe (it will go into effect), or
your Vibe Gauge empties. To refill the Vibe Gauge, you will need to find
crystals found throughout the levels. Alternatively, if you scoop an enemy with
X and press down on the D-pad, Perry will eat the enemy, which gives you a
little boost in vibe.
Shortly after beginning, you'll see a block with Perry's face on it. These are
help blocks; strike the ones on the ground with B or Y and jump to hit the ones
in the air, and Perry will give you some tips.
Continue right. Bust the bricks in front of you for some coinage. Continue
right, collecting coins along the way. Ignore the ladder for now and keep going
to find a large coin. Break all the bricks here and grab it. These large coins
are worth 5 coins. Go up the ladder and jump on the pipe. Press down on the D-
pad to descend.
Did you see Peach's reaction change on the touch screen? She will do this every
time you enter an area with a Toad that hasn't been rescued or another item of
interest is in this room. Three Toads are in each stage, and it's your job to
get them all. Move towards the Goomba. Scoop the ball and toss it with Y at the
Goomba and he'll give you a coin. Toss the ball at the blue hovering thing and
it'll drop some coins.
After this is a box. Inside is a Toad. Attack it to smash open the pink prison
and free the first Toad.  Continue right and go down the pipe.
You will see two crystals in your path. One crystal will almost completely fill
your Vibe Gauge. Move back left and jump on the pipe. Activate Joy (the orange
one) and fly up to the platform. Run into the box with the note on it for Peach
Voice 1. More on that later. If you screw up, go down the pipe and return here
to have the crystals return. Use this method to refill your Vibe Gauge after
you get it. Drop down and continue. Go down the pipe for some coins. Return and
continue. Another pipe, more coins.
See the sprout in the ground? Activate Gloom (the blue one) and it'll grow. Run
across the blocks left, gathering coins. You will jump higher if you get a
running start, so do that to get those out-of-reach coins. Come back to the
vine, drop down, and continue.
When you get to the gap, drop down to find an enemy and another Toad. Jump up
the platforms and across the gap. Down the pipe you go.
Scoop the Goomba and toss him at the blue thing to get more coins. Free the
final Toad and move to the end of the first level. Jump and hit one of the
symbols in the ring to end your level. You get coins depending on what symbol
you get.
Star     = 50 coins (Sometimes when you get stars you randomly get 777 coins)
Flower   = 30 coins
Mushroom = 10 coins
Turnip   =  1 coin
You will be back on the map screen.
If you press L, you can go to the Music Room where you can listen to the Peach
Voice 1 you just got. Remember when you turned the game on, Peach said
"Nintendo?" That's pretty much it. You'll get more music scores like this
throughout your adventure. Most will need to be purchased in the shop, but in
my opinion it's a waste of coins until you've bought the essentials. And the
essentials get real expensive, real quick.
Also in the L menu is the Glossary. It's a list of every enemy you've
encountered in your adventure, otherwise known as a bestiary. Wahoo.
On to the second level!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ 1-2 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Tempting, isn't it? Jump on the Koopa. Swallow him, then scoop the shell. Toss
it into the Goomba line and get coins. Continue to follow the shell. Watch it
bounce of the wall, then jump over it and backtrack to get even more coins.
Jump on the pink brick and activate Joy. Ascend and free the first Toad. Get a
crystal, then activate Joy again. Follow the coin-and-crystal path, then shut
it off. Swallow enemies to refill the Vibe Gauge.
Continue right and go down the pipe. Activate Joy and go down the pipe to your
left. Break the bricks and go on. Run across the gaps to collect the coins,
then drop down through them. Free the second Toad. Jump up the platforms and
step on the blue things (henceforth referred to as donut bricks since I'm not
sure what they're _really_ called) and drop down. Collect Puzzle A Piece 5
(more on that later) and go up the platforms again. Continue right and go down
the pipe.
Moving along. Free the final Toad. Down the pipe.
Use the Koopa shells to knock the rest of their pals out to get some coins. End
of level.
This is when I bought Floatbrella. I suggest you buy it now, too, as it's one
of the best abilities Perry has. When you are prepared, enter level 3.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ 1-3 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Step on the bridge and activate Rage. The bridge will burn, allowing you to get
the coins and another piece for Puzzle A. Shut the vibe off as soon as you
activate it, as it eats your energy quickly. Jump back up and move on. Use the
platforms to get across.
A bunch of Goombas are partially covering a sprout. Activate Gloom and ascend
the stalk. Quickly run across the donut bricks. These brown ones don't fall as
fast as the blue ones do, so you'll have about a second to get off it or it
falls. Collect the coins, then drop down. The first Toad is here.
Go down the pipe. Move right and stand next to the blue donut bricks. Activate
Gloom and rush across them, then go up the pipe by jumping while holding up.
Activate Joy and free the second Toad. Use the Goombas for sustenance. Down the
pipe and go.
Drop down and continue right. Pick the Goomba up and toss it at the blue
hovering thing for some coins. Use the Red Paratroopa to get up to the top
platform. Go up the pipe. Follow the path (be sure to whack the Volcano Plant
in your way) and activate Joy once you get to the fluff. After it breaks, shut
Joy off and free the final Toad. Up the pipe, drop down, down the pipe.
Nothing else to do but complete the level.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ 1-4 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Whack the Piranha Plant in your way to kill it. Jump on the trampoline and hold
A before you jump to jump higher. Scoop the trampoline and carry it to the next
set of coins. Keep in mind that you can kill enemies using the trampoline, and
they will drop a coin every time. Continue right. Scoop the trampoline and set
it in front of the blue donut bricks. Jump to the top and collect the coins.
Come back to the trampoline and activate Gloom. Dash across the donut bricks
and free the first Toad. Drop down, go right, down the pipe at the end.
The Nipper Plant will jump if you try to jump over him, so just whack him and
be done with it. Move right and scoop the trampoline. Carry it left and drop it
underneath the platform with the crystal. Collect it, then move to the next one
and get the heart. Carry it to the dead end and jump over the wall. Scoop the
new trampoline and carry it with you to the end. Jump on the brown platform and
drop the trampoline. Jump up to the wall above and run right. Slide down the
hills and get a bunch of coins. Backtrack to the pipe and descend.
To your right is a large trampoline. See the gap? Hold A to power your jump,
then hug the wall to fall in the gap. The second Toad is here. Jump to the top
and go down the pipe.
Move to the bridge and activate Rage to burn it down. Scoop an enemy or the
ball and toss it at the blue hover thing for coins. To the left of the pipe at
the bottom is the final Toad. Get back up top and continue right. With a
running start, press down as soon as you get to the tiny space and you will
slide underneath it. Do the same to get back out. Scoop the trampoline and
manually jump left up the platforms. Set the trampoline down and collect all
the coins here, moving the trampoline along the way. If you bought the
Floatbrella ability, this is a bit easier. Rescoop the trampoline and carry it
to another dead-end. Jump the wall, drop down, and go down the pipe.
Power jump up and left. Jump up and collect another piece of Puzzle A. Go left
and maneuver your way up the platforms. Bob-ombs will explode shortly after
being stomped on - just eat them. Be quick, though, as they'll explode after
you pick them up, too! Nothing more to do but complete the level.
I bought Poundbrella at this point.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ 1-5 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Jump on the Koopa and ram his shell into the enemies. Drop down the hole to
your right and get a couple coins. When you see the coin arrow, activate Joy
and fly up to a platform where the first Toad is. Drop down and continue. Scoop
a Bob-omb and run to the end. Quickly toss it at the blue hover thing for
coins. Jump across the platforms and go down the pipe. Go right and you'll find
a puzzle piece. Go back and jump across the gap. Burn the bridge with Rage and
free the second Toad. Enter the pipe.
You'll notice there are mushrooms of 3 colors: red, blue, and purple. The
mushrooms are all jumping different heights, with red being the weakest jumper,
blue being next strongest, and purple being the best jumper. Jumping has
nothing to do with it; you only need to worry about the color. Go down the pipe
on the right.
Hit the flowers in the same order the mushrooms were in; red, blue, purple. You
are also timed; take too long and you'll have to start over. Go down the pipe
on the right. Now there are four mushrooms. Go down the pipe on the right.
Strike the flowers in the order red, purple, blue, red. Continue.
Five mushrooms this time: blue, purple, red, red, blue.
Strike the flower next to you. Drop down left and nail the purple one. Take the
green platform up to the top and jump to the next area. Jump up and fall down
to take out a red flower. Drop to where the first blue flower was and fall
right to get the other red flower. Then use the platform or Joy to reach the
top. Fall to hit the last flower. Eat the Bob-omb. Go down the newly-formed
pipe to end this little mini-game.
Hit the Piranha Plant and move along.
You'll need to use Bowlbrella here. You can't whack while in the water, but if
you jump and scoop, you can take out the Cheep Cheeps. If you have Floatbrella,
you can just float over it. The hole is bad this time, avoid falling down it.
Bowlbrella your way across the water and down the pipe you go.
Time to combine vibes! Go to the sprout and activate Gloom. Jump up the stalk
and fire up Joy. Free the final Toad. End the level.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* BOSS STAGE 1-6 BOSS STAGE *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
For every boss stage, you will need to do a mission using only the stylus
before progressing to the boss. For this area, you need to make Peach bounce up
to the goal ring using only the worm things you bounce on. The plateau is just
a background, don't try to land on it. If you fall, that's fine. I did it a
couple times trying to get the coins. I find if you aim a little lower than a
platform, you will catch it instead of falling to your doom. When you complete
it, you can skip it if you die at the boss.
Once at the top, go down the pipe to encounter the first boss: Petey Piranha.
The game calls him Boss P. Plant, but we all know who he is.
Petey has three attacks. The first is to emit sound waves from his mouth. These
don't damage you, but will push you away. The second of his attacks is to face
the screen and send two shockwaves on both sides of him. These will hurt, so
jump over them. The last attack he'll do is upchuck a Nipper Plant and a
crystal. Eat the Nipper Plant and collect the Crystal to restore the Vibe
Gauge.
When the battle starts, Petey will sit there like an idiot with his mouth open.
You can't do much about that until you can actually reach him. Use Gloom to
make the stalk in front of him grow. Dodge his attacks and restore your vibes.
When he opens his mouth again, jump to the top of the stalk and let loose with
Gloom. Make sure Peach's tears land in his mouth. He will fall over in pain
after downing enough of the liquid. This is your chance to strike. Simply jump
on his exposed (and flashing) belly button to damage him.
Now hit him twice more.
After three hits, Petey will fly, flash colors, and then stay red. He'll drop
to the ground again. After this happens, he will fire two shockwaves instead of
one and toss out two or three Nipper Plants (as well as a crystal) a time. If
your HP are getting low, stay off to the side and quickly use Calm to restore
health.
Strike him twice more in the normal fashion to defeat him.
After his defeat, Peach will rush to the now-saved Toad, toss Perry aside, and
twirl the Toad around.
Cut to a scene with Peach and Perry sitting by a fire under a starry night sky.
You get to bear witness to a dream Perry is having. Well, that was quick. His
comment afterwards reminds me of Ezlo in The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap.
Will Perry be the same way? Who knows? Perry is anxious to beat up some bad
guys, so let's go! Onward, to area 2!
=============
5. Hoo's Wood                                                           [wrld2]
=============
Before entering, check out the shop. You can buy more sounds, as well as Puzzle
A Piece 1. Also, be sure to buy Vibe Tea and Tough Coffee. They increase in
price with every purchase, but they will help you a lot. Vibe Tea increases
your Vibe Gauge slightly, and Tough Coffee increases your max HP by 1/2 heart.
I suggest buying each of them once before moving to area 2 so you are better
prepared.
Note that buying Puzzle A Piece 1 for 10 coins will allow you more pieces, up
to Piece 4. After that, you'll have to find the rest.
Don't waste your coins on Chargebrella just yet. You use it once in the main
game, and a few more times after you beat it. You will eventually have so many
coins you won't know what to do with them all. Save your coins.
And just who is Hoo, anyway? Maybe we'll find out. If you haven't already, buy
the Floatbrella ability, as it will be needed shortly.
You can also go back and defeat any boss you've already defeated for 50 coins
every time after the first time.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ 2-1 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The Red Paratroopa won't hit you, so don't worry. Just don't jump up. Go left.
See the bricks now have a green pattern on them? Bust 'em up and get your coin.
Ascend the tree closest to you. When you get to the top, jump left and go up
the pipe. The Sad Nipper Plants will lunge at you with a high jump if you get
close, so be careful. Use Joy to fly up and get the coins. Eat the plants for
energy, then Joy yourself up the other side to free the first Toad. If you run
out of Joy, bounce on the Red Paratroopa to land on the platform. You can also
hit the block on your way down if you miss.
A few coins are at the top of the second tree. Fall between the second and
third trees and strike the ! block once to make a platform appear. If you hit
it again, it will vanish, so hit it a third time to make it reappear. Head to
the right to find another ! block. Hit it to reveal a second platform. Ascend
the tree nearest you and utilize these platforms to move on.
In the next area, Bowlbrella yourself left to get some coins. Use the platforms
to continue right. Watch out for the Mad Paratroopa and keep going left. Go
down a pipe to enter a side area. Nothing special here, just get to the end.
You will emerge directly under the pipe you went down before. Free the second
Toad, then continue right. Go up the pipe. Continue left and you will get some
coins and the score for Ladida Plains 2. It's okay if you fall, as this area is
simply higher than the main area; just go back up the pipe when you get to it.
Move on when you're ready. Avoid falling in the water here, as you can't
progress while in it. Enter the pipe.
The final Toad lies in front of you, so bust through the bricks and free him.
You'll see an annoying Paragoomba that drops tiny Goombas that stick to you and
severely restrict your jumping. Jump repeatedly to shake them all off. Enter
the pipe on the top.
Bullet Bills will periodically fly at you from both directions, so don't get
hit. Move right. Scoop the ball and toss it at the blue hover thing for a
heart, a crystal, and a lot of coins. The end of the level is just ahead.

Your first automatically scrolling board! If you fall behind, you won't get
left behind and die. Rather, Peach will simply be pushed as if there were a
wall to your left.
It should be noted that you can't jump on the Spinies because of their spiny
shell. Eat them instead. They require two hits to defeat. When you get to the
end, go down the pipe.
Well, so much for scrolling boards. Continue right. An odd fruit will fall from
a tree... Puzzle A Piece 9 is in plain sight. Keep moving.
Use Floatbrella to collect the heart and crystal without enlisting the help of
the Red Paratroopa. Get the coins from above, then move right. Floatbrella
across the spikes and enter the pipe.
See the Toad? You need Floatbrella to save him. Jump off the cliff, but don't
hold A until you're below the overhanging ledge. Quickly float to the Toad and
release him. Jump back up and continue to the end of this area. Ravens will
walk the perimeter of the platforms they're on... they can be jumped on or
eaten.
You'll notice Lakitu as soon as you enter this area. Whack him and you will be
able to abuse his cloud for yourself for a short time. Leave him alone for now
and continue right, busting up the giant bricks as you go. You'll come across
two bricks in between two platforms relatively quickly. Kill Lakitu (if you
killed him before, he will eventually respawn, so just be patient) and board
his cloud by jumping on it. Use the D-pad to move straight up and a little to
the right to find a high up platform with lots of giant bricks. Break them all
for treasure. Go back and drop down, then continue. Go down the pipe.
You'll see a large water wheel in the water, but it's not moving. Use Gloom to
turn the wheel, and you'll unlock something. Go left and down the pipe. A new
pipe has emerged just to the left of this one, so go down it.
Rage the bridge and go right. Bust all the bricks for lots of coins. Fall left.
Free the second Toad, then use the giant trampoline to return to the pipe.
Enter and go back down the pipe you went down before.
Jump over the water and move along. Free the final Toad and complete the level.

Almost immediately you will see a Glad Piranha Plant. It's orange, floats up
and down, and spews the occasional fireball. Whack it to defeat it.
Continue all the way right, killing Piranha Plants and avoiding spikes along
the way. When you get to the end, backtrack to the pipe that is stuck in the
ground and use Joy to get to the platform above. Move across the moving
platforms and go up the pipe at the end.
Slide under the wall and work your way around to the first Toad. Slide under
the wall again and exit this area. Drop to your right and enter the pipe.
To get the coins in the little alcove, jump as you slide down the hill. Fall
down the hole and use Gloom on the water wheel. Go left and down the pipe to go
back to the beginning.
Remember the pipe that was stuck in the ground? It's not stuck anymore.
Backtrack to this spot and enter the pipe. In this area, wind will blow to the
left, hindering your running speed. You will see Banzai Bills flying around,
but they can be quickly defeated with a whack or jump. You can scoop them, too.
The second Toad lies at the end. Now you can progress again.
Back in the area with the water wheel, instead jump over the hole so you don't
fall down again. Go up the hill and jump up and right. Continue right and drop
down for Puzzle A Piece 10. Get back up, then go up and left for some coins.
Head right to exit this area.
Gee, more wind. Bust open the blue hovering thing. Work your way to the right.
A Volcano Plant spits fire from above, so be wary. the Mad Paratroopas aren't
affected by the wind, so keep that in mind. Continue on the path until you get
to the end. Go up the ladder and now go left across the upper path. Down the
pipe you go.
Use Joy on the windmill blades to spin them. Slide down the hill to enable you
to jump to the final Toad. Level exit dead ahead.

This level scrolls up! Climb the ladders to reach the end, avoiding the Sad
Paragoombas along the way. Claim the 11th piece to Puzzle A and get down the
pipe.
See the mini-game bubble in front of you? You can't miss it. Get it, then move
on. Jump to the brown platform and use the green moving platforms to get to the
other side. Gloom your way across the blue donut bricks and slash with Perry to
free the first Toad. Down the pipe.
Watch for the Piranha Plant here. Jump across the rolling logs and continue.
Use Gloom on the sprout and then scoop the Nipper Plant. Carry it to the top of
the stalk and use it to open one of the blue hover balls for _lots_ of coins.
Drop down and repeat on the other ball, then continue to the next area.
See those bats? They hate fire. Use Rage to make them scatter. Jump up the
pipe.
Break the bricks and slide under the walls. You'll need a small running start
to make it. Jump up to the top when you reach the end and use Joy to spin the
blades to open the path. Refill your Vibe Gauge by eating Goombas that pop out
of the enemy pipe. When you're ready, free the second Toad and backtrack to
where you came from.
Continue right. Sad Ravens will scream on occasion, which will damage you if
you are too close. Continue to the next area.
Wait until the Glad Ptooie tosses the spiked ball to the side before trying to
jump over it. Get down and whack the enemy to kill it. The ball will drop, so
wait for that to happen before moving on. Free the final Toad.
Break the bricks and scoop the trampoline. Carry it across the water until you
reach the end. Jump up to the moving platforms and work your way left, then
right using the upper platform. Fall to the right to end the level.

Head right until you get to the pipe. Go up it. Get the crystals, then Gloom
across the blue donut bricks, jumping over enemies. Rage the bats at the other
side and free the first Toad on the other side of the pipe.
Drop down to get coins and Puzzle A Piece 12, which will complete the puzzle.
Go back to the beginning and head down the pipe. Go right and down the pipe.
Now, you should see a yellow something swimming at the top of the waterfall,
back and forth. This is the star enemy Perry is going to refer to in a help
block just ahead of here. It's in three worlds in the game, and Hoo's Wood is
one of them. Jump on the star enemy, and he'll fly away. Then continue. If you
don't see it, continue to go down the pipes repeatedly until you do; you will
be able to see him when you emerge, so don't go jumping to the other side to
see if he's there. Once you nail him, head to the right. When you get to the
end, jump on the green platform and then up to the top of the wall. Run across
it to find the second Toad at the end. Come back and go down the pipe.
After you emerge, jump up the pipe that's above you. Slide, jump, and
Floatbrella to get the coins in mid-air here. Back at the beginning, use Joy to
spin the blades. Drop down and bust through the bricks to free the final Toad.
Go to the end and down the pipe.
Head left. When you get to the platforms, use them to get into the smaller area
with coins. Drop down and head to the right. Be careful of the Sad Goombas
rushing the lower area. Use the trampoline to jump over the wall. End of level.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Use the stylus to spin the log in a clockwise fashion to make Peach ascend. The
more you spin, the faster you'll go up. You can spin counterclockwise to make
Peach slow down or descend if you go too high. You can watch the top screen to
know when the brambles are going to come. The things they shoot from will
wiggle before extending, so judge accordingly.
If you want to learn exactly how to defeat the boss, hit the help block. Go
down the pipe to encounter the second boss. The Glossary says this is Hoo.
Hoo has two attacks. The first is to toss three pellets at you. You can
whack these to make crystals pop out to restore your Vibe Gauge. For the
second, the boss will swoop down low at you. This is your chance to strike.
Jump on him as he makes his descent to deal damage. Do this twice more.
After the third strike, Hoo will change colors and destroy the platform
you're on, leaving Peach in a state of free fall.
Although it may seem harder, it's really not. Calm your HP back if necessary,
as the only thing the boss will do now is send out pellets that rotate around
the field. If you hit them, crystals may pop out; gather them to restore the
Vibe Gauge.
When you're ready to strike, use Joy. Hoo will put up a shield at this time and
cease attacking. When you're above the boss, turn it off and you will fall on
his head. Do this once more and you will emerge victorious.
Cut to the campfire scene, where we get to witness another of Perry's dreams.
He starts reminiscing, but quickly stops himself and urges Peach to move on.
No problems there. Area 3 awaits.

=================
In the shop, you can buy the first four pieces of Puzzle B, as well as the
music "Hoo's Wood 1." Puzzle A is complete, so you can assemble it from the
menu. You get no rewards for doing it. The object is, obviously, to assemble
the puzzle as quick as you can. Once a piece is put in the right spot, it will
fade out and be locked in place. Double tap the pieces to spin them 90 degrees.
Go back to Ladida Plains and earn yourself enough coins to buy tea and coffee
again if you haven't already (each should cost 1000 coins after you do).
When you are ready to go, head to Shriek Mansion and enter the first level.

Your first enemy of area 3 is Dry Bones, and like every Dry Bones before him,
he can't be killed by normal means. You can't scoop him, and if you jump on
him, he will come back to life in a few seconds. The only way to destroy him is
to burn him up or toss something at him. The blocks in this area look like
stones; two large ones are at the far right as an example. Follow the path and
enter the open door by pressing up while standing in front of it.
Knock a Koopa down and kick his shell to obliterate the rest. Eat the remaining
shell and use Joy to hit the switch. Use Joy again to reach the platform that
is now accessible and free the first Toad. Exit through the door.
Continue left and enter another door you'll quickly come across. Use the ball
to take out the Dry Bones and open up the hovering ball. Enter the pipe on the
right.
You can jump through the wall on the far right for some coins. Go up the
ladder. When you get to the top, jump into the left wall to find the score for
Hoo's Wood 2. Continue upwards. When you get to the top, jump into the wall on
the right to find the second Toad. A crystal is in the left wall at the top.
Jump down and enter the pipe, then go left and through the door.
Use Joy and fly up and to the left. Enter the door. The final Toad is literally
right in front of you. Go all the way right and then use Joy to fly over the
left wall.
Boos can only be destroyed by Rage. Run and drop to your right and enter the
door there.
Collect the stuff above you, then continue right. Jump across the platforms and
go down the pipe.
In front of you is the Slidebrella ability, which you'll need in about two
seconds. Note there is no going backwards while on the ropes; only slow and
fast. There are no enemies here, so go as fast as you'd like. You will need to
jump, though, so don't just hold right. If you jump just as you reach the end,
blue sparks will fly out and you will jump higher and farther than normal.
In the next area, Sad Dry Bones will toss 3 bones in succession on occasion.
Slide under the wall to complete the level.

These Lakitu-like enemies are called Fishing Boo, and you can only destroy them
with Rage. When you get to the help block, use Joy to float straight up. The
first Toad awaits. Continue to the next area.
Run right and pick up the ball. Enter the right wall for a Puzzle B Piece 5 and
a floating ball. Ditch the ball and climb the ladder.
At the top, Rage the Boos if you need to, then run across the brown donut
bricks. Immediately jump through the "ceiling." The second Toad is hidden in
this secret room. Continue and run through the bottom left wall and enter the
pipe.
Collect the crystals and run left. In the bottom left corner is a lantern
you'll need to light with Rage. There are a four such lanterns. Rage quickly
depletes the Vibe Gauge, so be quick in using it. After lighting the two on the
left, go to the far right and light the two there. After all four are lit, the
door next to the pipe opens. Enter the door.
Use the trampolines to reach the top ! block. Simply hit the bottom one. Use
the newly formed platforms to continue.
In the next area, jump on the moving platform. Enter the middle of the three
pipes. You will need to use Joy to go upwards in order to continue, but you'll
also notice that while standing still, the wind surrounding Peach will
temporarily disperse the fog. It'll come back while Joy is off. It's not _too_
difficult to see through the fog, but if you're having trouble seeing, don't be
afraid to Joy it away. Crystals are not scarce in this area. The final Toad is
at the bottom near the end. Free him and go down the pipe to be brought to the
beginning of this area. Go down the pipe to be brought back to the main area.
Jump to the right. The three platforms here are very fragile, and will crumble
if you move too quickly. After jumping on them, hold L or R while running to
walk. I find it infinitely easier to just Floatbrella your way to each one. End
of the level is just after this.

Toss a Goomba at the hover ball. Use Joy to get the two big coins. Use the
Goombas that come from the pipe to fill the Vibe Gauge, then Joy up the middle.
Use Joy to get up the right side, then climb to the top to get Puzzle B Piece
6. Drop down and climb up the left side. The Lil' Sparkies can't be destroyed.
Enter the door at the top.
A Glad Fang will rush you quickly. Whack to dispose. Climb the ladder and run
across the ceiling for a heart and a crystal. Back on the ground, slide under
the two walls and continue right. Run up the stairs at the end and hit the
switch. Use Joy to reach the first Toad. Drop down and go down the pipe.
Another Fishing Boo pesters this area. Enter the first door you see.
Fall near the left wall and Rage the lantern. The next one to light is in the
middle, and the third is on the right. The door that opens is in the middle. If
you miss, fall to the bottom and enter the door there. You'll have to start
over, though. Enter the unlocked door and free the second Toad. After you're
back at the top, enter the door again to be brought back to the main area. Head
right into the next area.
If you hit the gray ! block, the caged Big Boo will be released. Lure it into
the light, where it will faint. Use it as a platform to reach the pipe above.
When you get control, move right as fast as you can. A horde of blindfolded
Boos will rush you, and you'll have to start over (as well as lose as 1/2
heart) if you are hit by them. You can't enter any of the pipes, so keep on the
move. The final Toad lies at the end of this area. The end lies a few steps
ahead.

A Koopa is walking towards you. See it?
You can use Rage to increase visibility, but that isn't recommended as your
Vibe Gauge will empty faster than you can say "Mario's a sucker and Luigi needs
to stop being treated like trash" 10 times fast. Tread carefully.
When you get to the stacked platforms, climb them and go left to find the first
Toad. Destroying the blue ball should be SOP by now. Enter the pipe when you
get to it for more Slidebrella-y fun! You'll have to actually jump over enemies
here, so be careful. At the end, free the second Toad and jump up to the main
area. Enter the door.
You will be given an option of three doors to enter. Enter the middle door.
Now enter the one on the right, and enter the door you emerge from. Again,
enter the door on the right. Enter the left door. Quickly kill the Glad Fang
and go left and down the pipe.
There is fog here that you can Joy away. On the bottom path, scoop a Paratroopa
or the ball and then go back and take the upper path. At the end, fall and bust
the ball, then go up the ladder and down the pipe.
The two Big Boos in this area mean nothing; dash your way to the end.
The first fragile platforms you'll find here you might have to walk on - there
isn't much space to jump. Continuing on you'll find Puzzle B Piece 7 in plain
view. To the right is the final Toad, but you have 3 fragile platforms to cross
first. I just Floatbrella'd over the first two and jumped off the third. Easy.
End of the level is just over a small gap.
I noticed Toad Jump Lv.2 was available at this point in the shop, but I just
might not have checked the shop thoroughly enough. You may need to beat Lv.1 to
have it available.

Use the giant trampolines to reach the top. Once there, jump off the right side
to find the first Toad. Down the pipe you saw before.
Unlike normal Boos, Mad Boos will chase you if you look at them. Follow the
path and go up the pipe. There are four lanterns to light again. You'll need to
use the blue donut bricks to reach two of them. Step quickly. Enter the door
that opens and free the second Toad. Back to the main area.
Use the moving platforms to reach the next section, where the blindfolded Boo
gang will rush you again, only in this level you get almost no free time. If
you keep moving, they aren't that hard to outrun. Scoop the ball and toss it at
the blue ball for lots and lots of coins. Slide under the platforms with the
Lil' Sparkies and jump over the one with the Hothead. Enter the door ahead.
Drop down immediately. Enter the door to the left of the heart (it's eight
doors from the left wall barring you from the Toad, Puzzle B Piece 8 is along
the way) and free the final Toad. Enter any other door to be brought to the
beginning. Jump over the donut bricks. When you get to the blue ones, you will
need to continuously keep jumping. Use Floatbrella if it helps.
In this darkened area, simply progress. I actually got nailed by a Bob-omb in
the darkness, so be careful. Run to the end.
Hit the turn block twice to flip the room upside-down. Drop in every gap to
reach the next area.
Do you see the sleeping Fishing Boo? If you run past him, he wakes up. Too bad
