Koopa Trooper Cave is a very surprising second level for Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury because it also includes the World 1-2 secret exit. You can find out where to find it below, along with all of the three stars and the stamp location to 100% the level.
If you need any visual cues for the World 1-2 stars, secret exit or stamp, see the video below to point you in the right direction for it all. It’s taken from Super Mario 3D World on the Nintendo Switch, so it’s the latest version of the game in HD. You can also see the Bowser’s Fury walkthrough if you need any help for the add-on game.
World 1-2 Stamp location
On the third section after you hit the two long invisible coin blocks leading up to the ledge with the Kooper Trooper patrolling, go through the clear pipe to get a stack of coins as well as the World 1-2 stamp.
World 1-2 Secret Exit
Above the stamp pipe, climb up using the cat suit and you’ll find the red warp pipe. It’s better to go through this after you’ve already completed everything else in Koopa Troopa Cave, otherwise, you’ll have to go over things again later. Once you’ve done that you can come back to the secret exit and go through it to skip ahead to World 2. Don’t worry though, you can easily come back to World 1 any time you want to using the wider menu map.
1-2 stars
- In between the cloud platforms you can jump to get the first star really easily
- After the halfway flag you’ll find a warp box to go through. On the other side you’ll need to beat the two Koopa Troopers to get the star
- Right at the end of the level you’ll find a stack of Goombas with the last of the stars in the middle of them. Either jump through, ground pound or cat claw them to pick it up
