Super Paper Mario Game Guide/Walkthrough
Chapter 5–2: Pixls, Tablets, and Crag
First Screen
Head to the right here, killing anything that gets in your way. The Pokeys are best dealt with with Bowser’s flames. You’ll come to a body of water with a platform running across it. Dive into the water and sink down to find the Water Tablet, then jump back up into the water to swim back up before heading through the red door.
Second Screen
First things first here. Head to the left and kill the Clubba near the stack of blocks, then blow them up with Boomer. That will reveal a blue block; hit it to build a path up to the red door here. Jump up and go through it to reach the third screen.
Third Screen
Head to the right here and phase into 3D. You’ll see a bunch of blocks here, feel free to hit them as you like. You’ll also see a star crack underneath the large TV; use Fleep on it to raise some stones up to the TV’s level. This doesn’t seem to really do much at the moment, though.
In 3D, you’ll notice some ramps leading to a level below this one. Go down there to find the Fire Tablet. You’ll need to use Bowser’s flame breath on it to nab it.
Second Screen
Return to the second screen now and head to the right. You’ll find a large stack of grey blocks in the middle of the area. You can jump up here and coast off to the left towards the green pipe with Peach; heading into the background here will net you a handy Ultra Shroom Shake.
Proceed to the right and go through the next red door here.
Fourth Screen
O’Chunks will attack you here, and Dimentio will shift you both off into another dimension. Use Boomer and set down bombs in front of him before he charges and detonate them as he charges, and he’ll go down fairly quickly. With that done, head to the right and flip into 3D to find a statue of Yoshi. Move around it in a clockwise manner for one rotation, and the Stone Tablet will appear on its nose. Grab it and return to the second screen.
Second Screen
Go back to the grey stones in the middle of this area and climb the small blocks that are stacked up at the top; it’s easiest to do it in 3D mode. At the top, jump straight up in 2D mode to hit a ladder block. Climb the ladder and you’ll find three stone pillars. Place the Tablets into the pillars and a Pixl will appear. Put in whatever long word you like as your motto, and Cudge will join your team. Use him on the yellow block at the bottom of this area to unveil the path to the Star Block.
Chapter 5–3: A Crag In The Dark
First Screen
You’ll come across Flint Cragley pretty early on here. He wants you to find his crew, who has the key that will take you further into the ruins.
Second Screen
Again, not much to see here; save your game and move to the last pipe on the right to move on. There’s a coin room obscured here by cracks in the floor; look for them and use Thudley on top of it to reveal the
Third Screen
There are a couple of hidden coin areas here. One can be found by smashing the upper levels of blocks until you reveal a ladder, and another is to be found a bit to the right in this screen. If you blow up the first flower-headed enemy you see with a bomb, a door will be revealed in the background. Go through to find your coins. There’s another door here that leads to a rail line, but don’t worry about it at the moment. Instead, head far to the right and smash a yellow block to find a doorway leading on.
Fourth Screen
A long tram ride here. Hop onto the rail cart and ride it until the end.
Fifth Screen
Start heading to the right here. Drop down the steps here, and when you reach a wall that you can’t climb, flip to 3D to find a Spania Card. Climb back up the steps and jump over to the orange blocks and smash them in 3D mode. You’ll find one of Flint’s crew here; talk to him to send him back to Flint’s location.
Return to Flint at this point, and you’ll be told to head back out to find another crewmember.
Sixth Screen
Return to the third screen here. The first wooden door to the right of the entrance will lead back to that rail line. Hop into the rail car and flip into 3D mode. When you see the rail flip off to the left, press left on your controller to move the rail car into the other track. After it flips underneath some rock protuberances, you’ll find…
Seventh Screen
The sound guy is located on this screen. Float across the first big gap with Peach, then drop down to him. You can return to the door via a ladder block.
Eighth Screen
When you return the cameraman and the sound guy to Cragley’s location, he’ll give you the key for the locked door in the second screen. A long rail car trip will ensue. Head through the door nearby and examine the stone blocks in 3D mode to find that you can destroy them with Cudge. One of them will conceal the door leading to the Star Block.
