Template:Galaxybox Twisty Trials Galaxy is a galaxy appearing in the game Super Mario Galaxy 2. It is located in World S. The galaxy is a replica of Ricco Harbor's Episode 4 Secret Level from Super Mario Sunshine. The only major change is that there is now a single Cloud Flower in the level, the spinning logs are more massive, and the Shine Sprite is, of course, replaced with a Power Star. Also, note that one of the spinning wooden platforms is also missing. The background uses sprites from Super Mario Bros, just as they were from the original version of this course.

Planets

Twisting Blocks Area 1

The player will land on a platform right before the twisting blocks. The first area consists of four slow moving blocks in a linear fashion, with little increase or decrease in slope. There is a Cloud Flower located on the third spinning log right near the beginning of the course and can be used help the player through the rest of the mission.

Rotating Gears Area
