The Great Tower of Bowser Land (known as The Great Tower of Bowser World in the British English Wii U version), also known as World Bowser-Castle is the final standard course of World Bowser, and the final main course in Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch port Super Mario 3D World Deluxe. It is set in an amusement-park themed Bowser's Castle, with a very tall tower in the center. Unlocking this level requires 170 Green Stars, as well as the completion of both Motley Bossblob's Encore and Hisstocrat Returns.
Layout
The course begins near the remains of Bowser's Muscle Car, with a zipline lift right next to it; scratching the car while wearing a Cat Suit will cause it to light up while the horn blares. The zipline lift leads onto a rooftop with obstacles that include bottomless pits, debris from the volcano in the background, and spikes in the floor. Upon reaching the Ferris wheel-like platforms, Captain Toad greets the player(s) as he stands next to another zipline lift.
Once the player(s) reach the large tower in the center, Bowser appears and uses a Super Bell, causing him to turn into Meowser. The rest of the course involves climbing the tower while Meowser attacks them repeatedly; he shoots fireballs, climbs up walls and slides down them, and often breaks through them with his scratches. After hitting him with a POW Block, he is sent flying and the wall to the rest of the tower is revealed. When the player goes up the Clear Pipe Cannon to the top of the tower, Meowser returns and uses Double Cherries to double himself. These doubles can assist Meowser by destroying sections of the level. As the player heads up to the very tower, a giant Super POW Block is on the top as the real Meowser stands on top with the bottle containing all seven of the Sprixie Princesses. This POW Block must be hit four times to finally defeat Meowser, after which he is sent flying and the Sprixie Princesses are freed.
Upon defeating him, a Clear Pipe to the Goal Pole reveals itself, with the Goal Pole having a transparent base, and the course ends with all seven Sprixie Princesses rescued. From there, the game is finished, and the credits sequence follows.
During the credits, Cat Mario, Cat Luigi, Peach, and Cat Toad return to the Mushroom Kingdom, as do Captain Toad and the other Toads. The first part includes a Green Sprixie Princess. The Yellow Sprixie Princess, Blue Sprixie Princess and Plessie also give their new friends a fond farewell. Each part contains of only two Sprixie Princesses for orange and purple and gives a fond farewell. Each rabbit includes big and small. At the beginning of the moment, Mega Rabbit looks up and uses their hop to attack by running, while the smallest rabbit bumps and is upset, and Mega Rabbit tries to look at him. The next part includes three Sprixies and uses their dance to conquer a fond farewell. The next part includes a Binocular Sprixie and gives their new friends a fond farewell. Bowser is left trapped inside a bottle, while Boom Boom is upset and Pom Pom tries to comfort him. The next part includes an ice Sprixie Princess. The final part includes a red Sprixie Princess and waves goodbye for everyone. The credit ends with all seven Sprixie Princesses finished and finally returned to the Mushroom Kingdom.
