"Super Mario 64" Stages 1-3 Trivia Quiz

Answer: Three

In the very first level task of "Bob-omb Battlefield" called 'Big Bom-omb on the Summit', you need to go to the highest point of the level and fight the Bob-omb King. To throw him, you need to run around behind him and lift him with the B-button. If you throw him over the edge of the mountain, he'll jump right back up, so you need to throw him right onto the ground. If you remain in front of him, he'll end up picking you up and throwing you.

Answer: A flagpole

In this second stage of "Bob-omb Battlefield", you need to race Koopa the Quick up to where the Bob-omb King was fought. A quick way to beat Koopa is by going around the level and taking the warp in the cave on the side of the mountain. If you touch the flagpole first, you win the star.
Note: You must get the first star of this level before you can attempt this task.

Answer: #6

To free the Chain Chomp in task #6, you need to ground pound the wooden post that his chain is tied to. Once you ground pound it three times, he'll jump around and break open the cage guarding your star. You have to watch out that he doesn't lunge at you when you're trying to pound down the post, because he'll take a bit of your health away.
You can attempt the task, 'Behind Chain Chomp's Gate' at any time. You can even complete it before receiving star #1.

Answer: His back

You must defeat Whomp in the very first task of the level called 'Chip off Whomp's Block'. To beat him, walk in front of him, and run away when he attempts to squash you. When he's on the ground, ground pound his back. Once you've done this 3 times, he'll be defeated, and you can receive your star.

Answer: #1 and #2

You use Hoot the Owl in the task called 'Fall onto the Caged Island'. You can find Hoot the Owl in the tree near the start of the level, and he can pick you up and fly you around. You need to control him so that he can drop you into the floating cage to get star #5.

Answer: Three

When you begin in Peach's Castle, you must play the "Bob-omb Battlefield" stage because you don't need any stars to access it. You need one star to access "Whomp's Fortress" and three stars to enter "Jolly Roger Bay" and "Cool, Cool Mountain".

Answer: Four

In the first task, 'Plunder in the Sunken Ship', you need to lure Unagi the Eel out of the entrance of the ship, then swim inside to complete the challenge. Inside, you need to swim to the different chests and open them in the correct order to lower the water.

When you open the chests, an air bubble will float out and allow you to breathe a bit longer. If you hit the wrong chest, you'll take some damage and you'll have to start over again.

Answer: Three

The 'Red Coins on the Ship Afloat' requires star #1 in "Jolly Roger Bay" before it is completed because the ship needs to be raised. Much like all of the other Red Coin tasks, you have to collect all of the Red Coins in a level, then retrieve your star. In this case, the star will appear on the ship. Many of the coins are underwater, but four are above the water.

Answer: Yes

The Pink Bob-omb Cannon is required for star #5 in this level. In the task called 'Blast to the Stone Pillar', you need to aim yourself at one of the stone pillars, then climb it and jump to a ledge where the star is located. This is the only time that you will need this cannon in the stage.

Answer: Ten

To reach this area, Mario needs to look into the sunlight in the main lobby of Peach's Castle. Once he does this, he will be at the tower where he can collect the Red Coins to get a Secret Star and he can stomp down the Red Switch to activate the Wing Caps around the different levels.
