World 3 (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)
- “This is how the forest SHOULD be: quiet, green, and fragrant.”
- —Kersti, Paper Mario: Sticker Star
World 3 is the third world Mario explores in Paper Mario: Sticker Star. It is the biggest world in the game, with 12 levels, and takes place in the forest. After the Sticker Star is split, the third Royal Sticker ends up on top of Gooper Blooper, the world's boss. He then started to create poison, which ended up affecting the nearby forest and its inhabitants, including Wiggler, who is split into segments by Kamek because of his ability to cross poisoned areas without taking damage. The goal in this world is not only to obtain the Royal Sticker, but also to find Wiggler's segments and restore Wiggler's body. Enemies like Ninjis, Poison Bloopers and Scuttlebugs are only found and fought here, while Shy Guys, Snifits and Piranha Plants are first encountered here. The forest's sticker shop is also where Secret Door stickers can be purchased. Gooper Blooper is fought near a rocky shore beyond the remains of a fishing boat Gooper Blooper destroys. After Gooper Blooper is defeated, the poison and the darkness which accompanies it are purged from the forest.
