Layout

This level's layout is similar to World 1-4's, though with additional Fire-Bars and Podoboos.

The player starts the level on an elevated area with stairs heading downwards, ending at a pit of lava. Afterward is a platform surrounded by Fire-Bars and Podoboos, and with a ? Block containing a power-up above it. After a corridor of Fire-Bars on the ceiling, there is a room with more Fire-Bars placed on both the ceiling and the floor. Next is a room containing several Hidden Blocks before the bridge with the fake Bowser, which has a Podoboo jumping up from below and a horizontally moving lift above. The fake Bowser also starts throwing hammers.
