How to clear Star World 2 in Super Mario World for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Game Boy Advance.

How to Reach Star World 2

Star World 2 can be reached by finding the secret exit in Vanilla Secret 1, or by finding the secret exit in Star World 1.

How to Clear Star World 2

This is a very simple level where you swim to the right and encounter Blurps and Rip Van Fishes. Near the beginning of the level, swim near the Yoshi's Egg to make it hatch into a blue Mini-Yoshi. A Super Star will fall from above, but if you don't take it, the Mini-Yoshi will eat the Super Star and instantly grow into adult Yoshi. If you take the Super Star before Mini-Yoshi can eat it, you can hold X or Y to pick up the Mini-Yoshi, then make Mini-Yoshi eat five enemies by holding it in the path of the enemies.

When Blue Yoshi grows up, it will grow wings if it has any color of shell in its mouth, and can fly until you make Yoshi spit out the shell or until he eventually swallows the shell.

Partway through the level, there is a Prize Block that contains a coin.

There is a pipe on the right that leads to the normal exit, but if you want to go to the secret exit, you should go to the area below the pipe and swim to the right. There you will find the key and keyhole. If you have Yoshi, he can eat the key and stand in front of the keyhole to activate the Secret Exit.

After the Level

If you went through the normal exit, you will go back to the Star Road entrance nearby. If you went through the secret exit, a path opens to the northeast, leading to another Star Road exit. This also gives you access to Star World 3.
