'''Wind-Up Tower''', or '''{{world|Cake|tower}}''', is the tower of [[Layer-Cake Desert]] in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''. It is unlocked by completing [[Piranhas in the Dark]] or [[Underground Grrrols]], and its own completion unlocks the path to [[The Walls Have Eyes]].

==Layout==
[[Luigi]] begins the level near a screw that he must spin in order to access [[Screwtop Platform]]s. The Screwtop Platforms can be used as stairs to advance through the level. At the top of the Screwtop Platforms, five [[Dry Bones]] can be found, along with two [[? Block]]s, a [[Hidden Block]] on the right that contains a [[1-Up Mushroom]] and a second screw. The screw causes Screwtop Platforms to move along tracks, allowing Luigi to reach a platform with a third screw on it. Spinning on the screw causes Screwtop Platforms above it to move apart, allowing Luigi to reach the boss door. [[Boom Boom]], who is given the ability to spin jump by [[Kamek|Magikoopa]], must be fought in order to finish the level.
