'''World 2-3''' is the third course of [[World 2 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 2]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. The level takes place underground, and is filled with many moving platforms and pipes.
==Layout==
The level starts in a desert setting with a [[Pokey]] and a yellow [[Warp Pipe]] that takes [[Mario]] to an underground section with floating and rotating platforms, along with several more Pokeys. Past this section is the [[Checkpoint Flag]], a [[Roulette Block]], two [[Roulette Coin Block]]s (each with two [[Spike Top]]s), and a [[springboard]] used to bounce to the higher block. After the checkpoint are two platforms, a Pokey and a yellow Warp Pipe that warps Mario to the next area.

This second area contains Brick Blocks, ? Blocks and red [[POW Block]]s, followed by platforms that go in opposite directions (two sets move downwards and one set moves upwards), with two Pokeys and a [[Red Ring]]. After passing a few more [[Buzzy Beetle]]s and crossing quicksand, a green pipe blasts Mario out of the cave. Back on the surface, there are several stone platforms with Pokeys floating over a pool of quicksand. Crossing it leads to the [[Goal Pole]].

==Power-ups==

*[[1-Up Mushroom]]
*[[Super Leaf]]
*[[Super Star]]

==[[Star Coin]]s==
*'''Star Coin 1''': Just after the checkpoint, there are two Warp Pipes, with the lower one obstructed by Brick Blocks. A Buzzy Beetle can be found on the upper pipe; Mario has to pick it up and go to the lower moving platform (the one without the Pokey) and try to activate the outer POW Block. If successful, a path will open for him to reach and enter the pipe. After entering the room, Mario must go left and drop down the hole. There are many [[Piranha Plant]]s that pop out simultaneously every few seconds, with the Star Coin on the left.
*'''Star Coin 2''': At the beginning the second area, there is a gap in between the Brick Blocks. Mario needs to carry a Buzzy Beetle to a spot just before the gap, and throw the shell to activate all the red POW Blocks while avoiding the red pipe that spawns [[Goomba]]s, opening a path to the Star Coin.
*'''Star Coin 3''': Upon reaching the Red Ring, Mario has to climb up the third set of downward-moving platforms while moving towards the right to a platform made of Brick Blocks and POW Blocks. Navigating through the path by jumping from platform to platform will bring Mario to the Star Coin.
