Champion's Road, or World Crown-Crown, is the final level in Super Mario 3D World. It is analogous to Special 8-Crown of Super Mario 3D Land. The level is relatively lengthy and contains no checkpoints or power-ups. To unlock it, players must collect everything prior to opening this level and need to obtain gold flagpoles for every level prior. Prior to entering the level, a heartbeat sound effect can be heard.
Layout
The first section of the level contains floating colorful blocks and Octoombas on top of maroon blocks that move from side to side. After that, a Clear Pipe takes players to an elevating section with three Fire Bros.. On top of it, players must traverse across blocks that are only one ? Block wide and must either defeat or dodge the several Chargin' Chucks. A Warp Box then transports players to the next section.
The next section requires players to run and time their jumps over Beat Blocks that alternate in double time. After traversing the Beat Blocks, players go into a Clear Pipe cannon that tosses them into an arena with crumbling blocks and three Magikoopas. Players must defeat all the Magikoopas in order for a Warp Box to appear.
After the area with the Magikoopas and the crumbling blocks, players must travel across grey platforms while also avoiding swinging spiky pillars and Fuzzies. The players can use a Potted Piranha Plant to help get rid of the Fuzzies. Then there is another Warp Box that takes players to the next section.
In this section, players must wall-jump upward, with the aid of a spring platform. They also must avoid the Horned Ant Troopers but also use them to move up the walls. Past the wall-jumping, players must then jump on the Piranha Creeper to go up. Then, players need to swim on a floating square of water that takes them through spiked walls, plus moving spiked walls. When players succeed, they go into the Clear Pipe, which shoots them into the last obstacle part of the level.
Players must use the dash panels to dash through this section, also while avoiding the shockwaves of the machines. The path takes them to a square area, where players must collect five Key Coins to open up a Warp Box. Then, past the Warp Box, players go through Clear Pipes that word "Thank You" in neon lights. Then, the players see most of the supporting cast waving at them, and thus, the flagpole in sight. The flagpole is that of the boss flagpoles.
