| '''Puzzle Plank Galaxy''' is the first galaxy of [[World 2 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)| World 2]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The galaxy features wooden planks floating in a blue sky, that [[Mario]] can stand on them as platforms. However, some sections of these platforms are cut by [[Grinder]]s that eventually remove a part of the plank that falls to the void. If the plumber stays on these platforms, he will fall into the void and lose a life. Some enemies such as [[Wiggler]]s and [[Mandibug]]s can be found here as well as the prominent appearance of the Grinders. A remix of the galaxy's music appears as an available track that can be played in events in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'' and ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games]]''. | | '''Puzzle Plank Galaxy''' is the first galaxy of [[World 2 (Super Mario Galaxy 2)| World 2]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.

| [[File:SMG2 Puzzle Plank Starting Planet.png|thumb|200px|Mario on the {{conjectural|Starting Planet|planet}}.]]
| | The starting planet doesn't have enemies on it. It only has a [[Tip Network]], a [[Question Block|? Block]], and a [[Spring]]. Mario has to ground pound the star mark in middle to fall into the next planet. |
| [[File:SMG2 Puzzle Plank Switch.png|thumb|left|200px|The other part of the {{conjectural|Starting Planet|planet}}.]] | |
| The planet is split up into two sections. The top section is made up of two large, wooden blocks connected by a wooden structure in the shape of an "H". Ground pounding the symbol on the "H" will take the player to the second portion of the planet. In this area, there are two [[Wiggler]]s walking in a circular fashion. There are also four red switches, one in each of the corners. The bottom left contains [[Star Bit]]s. The upper left activates [[note]]s that will go in an inwards spiral motion. The notes will play the [[bonus game (Super Mario World)|bonus game]] theme from ''[[Super Mario World]]''. The upper right has coins, and the bottom right switch reveals the [[Launch Star]].

| ===Pound Pillars Planet=== | | ===Four Switches Planet=== |
| [[File:SMG2 Puzzle Plank Pound Pillars Planet.png|thumb|left|200px|Mario on the {{conjectural|Pound Pillars Planet|planet}}.]]
| | This planet has four switches and two [[Wiggler]]s. If [[Mario]] activates the upper-left switch, several [[Music Note]]s will appear in the area, which play the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' bonus stage theme. If Mario collects all of them, he'll get three [[1-Up Mushroom]]s. If the upper-right switch is pounded, Mario can get some [[Coin]]s. If he pounds the bottom-left switch, he'll get [[Star Bit]]s. And finally, if he pounds the bottom-right switch, a [[Launch Star]] will appear. |
| [[File:SMG2 Ground Pound Towers.png|thumb|200px|The pillars on the other side.]]
| |
| This planet has three pillars on it, each pounded on the other side of the planet. The player has to ground pound them again so he can access the Launch Star by using them. There are also [[Grinder]]s along the sides and some [[Octoomba]]s scattered around the planet. There is also a [[Hungry Luma]] who wants 70 coins and a green [[Warp Pipe]] that leads into a room with a [[? Coin]], which will make many sets of 3 coins appear. Once the [[Hungry Luma]] is fed 70 [[coin]]s, it will transform into three planets rather than one: the [[#Wood Island Planets|Wood Island Planets]] as well as [[#Bugaboom's Wooden Planet|Bugaboom's Wooden Planet]]. If Mario collects all coins before time runs out, he will get a 1-Up. The player can also backflip and spin jump next to the [[Launch Star]] on the planet to activate it. This planet is also one of three planets that appear on the cover of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The launch star may be reached with Luigi by ground-pounding the red block once then back flipping up to the star. | |

| | This planet has three pillars on it, they're pounded to the other side of it. Mario has to ground pound them again so he can access the Launch Star by using them. There are also [[Grinder (obstacle)|Grinders]] along the sides and some [[Octogoomba]]s scattered around the planet. There is also a [[Hungry Luma]] who wants 70 coins and a green [[Warp Pipe]] that leads into a room with a [[? Coin]]. |
| This is not a planet, but rather a location only accessible during the [[Purple Coin Shadow Vault]] mission. It is located inside the [[Warp Pipe]] on the [[#Pound Pillars Planet|Pound Pillars Planet]]. The vault has a total of 100 [[Purple Coin]]s, split up into 25 separate groups of four coins. [[Cosmic Clone]]s are found in this area as well. In other missions, it has generic coins inside.

| | This long planet is made of wood, it is full of [[Grinder (obstacle)|Grinders]] that cut the platforms. The [[Comet Medal]] is located on a wood platform, Mario must hurry and get it before the Grinders cuts it and make it fall. After going up a green wall, Mario will have to travel different-colored sections of the planet, and then activate a ground pound switch and use a Launch Star before the planet falls. |
| This planet is split up into several "parts", the entirety of it being infested with [[Grinder]]s, [[Slurple]]s, [[Flipbug]]s, and [[Mandibug]]s. The Grinders will activate when the player is in close proximity to them. These will cut out pieces of the level, creating gaps and making traversing the planet harder. However, some of the Grinders are needed to proceed through as they cut out pieces of the level that open the way to continuing. The [[Comet Medal]] is located in the light brown section where the player first lands. | |
