Layout of the slide.

The mission's Power Star appears once the player exits from the door at the slide's end. When the player enters the level, a message pops up directing them to the nearby cottage, which can only be entered through its chimney. A sign at the cottage's entrance, written by the Cabin Proprietor, also invites the player to enter through the chimney. Once they enter, they are faced with a slide which they must ride to the bottom without slipping off. If they skid off, they fall into a bottomless pit and are kicked out of the level. The slide has a shortcut halfway through it, marked by a line of coins, which also contains a couple of 1-Up Mushrooms. After they make it to the end and exit the cottage, the Power Star flies out of the door and lands in front of the player.
