===Battlerock Barrage===
==Other appearances==
Mario begins on a small disc-shaped platform near four other similar platforms in space. His first task is to collect the five blue [[Star Chip]]s on these platforms. After the player collects the Star Chips will cause a set of [[Pull Star]]s to form a path that leads Mario to a [[Launch Star]]. Mario will land on another small platform and must bounce on an enemy to reach a higher platform. The player will have to [[Star Spin]] on a blue screw on this platform to make it move. Mario will have to dodge the cannon blasts and electric walls as the platform moves, and Mario could run on the underside if necessary. When the platform stops, Mario can jump onto the platform that contains a [[Power Star]] in a cage. He must lure one of the nearby heat-seeking [[Bullet Bill]]s into the cage and grab the Star.

Battlerock Galaxy appears in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'' as the location of the [[Dream Hurdles]]. The event takes place on a giant saucer and the actual planet is in the background. The location is also used for the rematch against [[Dry Bones]]. The galaxy theme is also arranged.
{{br}}


===Breaking into the Battlerock===
==Gallery==
Mario begins this level on the same set of small platforms. One platform contains a never ending supply of [[Bob-omb]]s, and another has a cage with a Launch Star, so Mario must throw a Bob-omb at the cage to free the Launch Star. Mario will launch onto a [[Chain Chomp]]-infested planet that contains a cage with a Luma, a cage with a [[Rainbow Star]], and a Bob-omb supply. The player will have to use the Bob-ombs to break open the Luma's cage, and the Luma will transform into a [[Sling Star]]. This will sling Mario into a Launch Star, which sends him into a Pull Star minefield. The player will have to carefully avoid the mines while using the Pull Stars to reach the Launch Star. The next room contains cannons encased in glass on both ends and a Luma encased in glass floating in the center. Mario will have to use a Bob-omb to free the cannon. Then the player should jump into the cannon, and Mario will have to aim for the moving glass chunk. The player will have to hit it two times, which will free the Luma, who will turn into a Launch Star. The Launch Star will send Mario to a place with a Bob-omb supply and a cannon in a case. The player will have to free the cannon and jump in. The Power Star is circled by moving platforms, so Mario will have to aim carefully and grab it.

===Topmaniac and the Topman Tribe===
==Names in other languages==
Mario lands a small platform once more, this time surrounded by only two others. One platform has a [[Rocky Wrench]] with a Pull Star near it. Mario will use the Pull Stars to reach another platform, then he shall use the Sling Star to reach a moving platform. This platform moves through a minefield, so the player will have to dodge all the mines and use the Launch Star at the end. The next platform contains a Luma trapped by an electrical barrier and a red [[Topman]]. Mario will have to Star Spin the Topman into the electricity to free the Luma, who turns into a Launch Star. This will launch Mario into some platforms, one of which has a [[Warp Pipe]]. The Pipe sends Mario into a 2D area. The player will have to Star Spin next to the arrow to reverse gravity and go right while dodging the firebars and carefully navigating the spinning platforms above the lava. Mario will have to Star Spin next to the the arrow to flip gravity again and start moving right. The player shouldn't jump or stand on top of the moving platforms, because if Mario enters the area of downwards gravity he will have to redo the previous section. Mario will have to fall upwards through the gap and run right while dodging the crushers. Next, the player needs to bounce on the trampoline to reach a Warp Pipe, and then bounce on another trampoline to reach a Sling Star. This sends Mario into an elevator, and he will end up in a room with an electrical barrier and two Topmen. Mario will have to Star Spin both Topmen into the electricity to deactivate it and reach a Launch Star. Mario will be launched into the underside of a large platform with many electrical fields and Topmen. The player will have to ignore the Topmen and Mario needs to walk to the topside of the platform where a Luma Shop and [[Topmaniac]] awaits. After defeating Topmaniac, the player will earn a Star.

This is a hidden Power Star found on "Breaking into Battlerock". Mario will have proceed as normal, but when Mario reaches the planet full of Chomps, the player shouldn't free the Luma in a cage. The player will have to talk to a nearby Hungry Luma. Mario will need to feed the Hungry Luma thirty Star Bits to transform him into a Launch Star that will send Mario to a platform full of garbage. The [[Gearmo]] on this planet will challenge Mario to use Bob-ombs to take out all the garbage in thirty seconds. The Bob-ombs take ten seconds to explode, so Mario will have to make sure they are placed well and that each one takes out three or four pieces of garbage. There are yellow circles on the ground which indicate the best positions for the bombs to be placed. The Gearmo will give Mario a Power Star for successfully completing this task.

Mario will have to lure a Bullet Bill over to this cage to free him, and he will give Mario a Green Power Star.

The Battlerock Galaxy is a galaxy in the Wii game Super Mario Galaxy. The galaxy contains many floating metallic UFOs and planet-sized rocks with Cannons. The Battlerock itself is a huge rock studded with cannons that fire at Mario, and the inside contains many technical contraptions. Many robots and Bob-ombs appear in the galaxy.

The galaxy also contains an area where three Lumas are being held. Topmaniac is fought here for the first time. This galaxy is tied with the Dusty Dune Galaxy for the highest number of Power Stars, being seven.

Planets/Areas[edit]

NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, all names are unofficial.

UFOs[edit]

Mario on one of the UFOs.

The starting point of the galaxy is a bunch of UFOs near each other. In the first mission, Battlerock Barrage, there are five Blue Star Chips that Mario must collect to create Pull Stars to lead to a Launch Star, which takes the player to the Moving UFO. There is a ? Coin that creates several coins here. In the second mission, Breaking into the Battlerock, there are barriers that must be destroyed by Bob-ombs that come out of the dispensers. One barrier contains a Launch Star that takes Mario to the Molecule Planet. In the third mission, Topmaniac and the Topman Tribe, Mario must ride some of these saucers to a Launch Star, which take him to the Metal Bowl Planet. However, these saucer groups are in different places on Battlerock in each mission.

Moving UFO[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

There are two huge UFOs here, each with some barriers that can only be broken by Bullet Bills, which are fired near the second big UFO. The Power Star is contained inside one of these barriers. On the Seventh mission, Luigi is trapped under one of these barriers, which have some poles next to the barrier, making it harder for the Bullet Bills to break the barrier. When Luigi is rescued, Mario gets a Green Power Star.

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Mario on the Molecule Planet.

This Planet is shaped like a molecule. It marks a checkpoint and has Chomps moving all around it. There are Bob-ombs here that destroy a barrier containing a Rainbow Star and a Luma. The Luma takes Mario to a spiky area, which plays the Space Fantasy music and has a Launch Star that goes to the Battlerock Planet. There is also a Hungry Luma that, when fed thirty Star Bits, creates a Launch Star to the Garbage Planet.

This Planet is a giant rock with metal inside. Inside, Mario must use a Bob-Omb to destroy the barrier to the cannon. The player should then enter the cannon and aim for the Luma to free it, which could take two or three times (one if the player is experienced). When the Luma is freed, Mario can access a Launch Star to the Blast Missile.

On this colorfully tiled missile, the Space Fantasy music plays. Mario has to bring a Bob-omb to the cannon on its tip, avoiding the electrical barriers. Then, the player must enter the cannon and aim carefully past the moving pieces of metal, so Mario can reach the Power Star. If the player misses, Mario falls back to the missile or might fly off into the distance and lose a life.

Apparently, this planet is actually supposed to be the ammo depot for the Battlerock Galaxy, which a lone Gearmo inhabiting the planet grudgingly tells Mario after he lands here[1]. If Mario successfully blows up all the trash on the planet with Bob-ombs within the allotted 30 seconds, the Gearmo rewards Mario with a Power Star. Mario does not lose a life if he fails to blow up the trash within the time limit.

This planet is a bowl made out of metal. Here, Mario must Spin a Spiky Topman in to an electrical barrier, thereby breaking the barrier, and freeing a trapped Luma. The Luma creates a Launch Star to the Gravity Planet.
