'''Crooked Cavern''', or '''Acorn Plains-2''', is the second course of [[Acorn Plains]], and subsequently, the second course of ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''. It is unlocked by completing [[Waddlewing Warning!]], and its own completion unlocks [[Flame-Gear Tower]] and the first [[Toad House]]. Completing the secret exit in this level unlocks [[Cheep Chomp Chase]].

==Layout==
[[File:NSLU Crooked Caven Start.png|thumb|left|200px|The beginning area of the level]]
The first area is a small above-ground field where three [[Warp Pipe]]s are found. The left and right ones are red and contain [[Piranha Plant]]s, while the middle one is green and leads to an underground section. The second area begins on a moving crystal platform, along with Warp Pipes containing Piranha Plants. More crystal platforms are found, along with more Piranha Plants. Some crystal platforms with [[Koopa Troopa]]s on them are also found. More crystal platforms follow, with [[Brick Block]] platforms on the edges of them. Another crystal platform is found, and has more Koopa Troopas and Piranha Plants on it. A Warp Pipe is found above a platform near a large pit. The Warp Pipe leads above ground, where the [[Goal Pole]] is located.
