Episode 1 — Uncork the Waterfall

As soon as you are informed about the situation, go straight up the stairs. Then jump on the pulley and spray water into the vase hanging across from it. If you now remove the goop at the top, a new platform appears and you continue to move up. After three liberated platforms, you are on the next pulley. Before you go upstairs with him, you should first remove the goop of a dolphin, otherwise you will not get any further. On the very high wall you have to use the wall jump to get further up. Once you arrive here, you can first fill up your water supply in the basin. Now there are two methods to reach Monty. For the first variant, use a combination of sideways jump and wall jump on the wall to storm the cliff. For the second method, you run back a bit and climb a little further up. There you will now find a trampoline, which will make the rest of the climb easier for you. Now that you’re at Monty, it’s the same game as in Mission 2 from Pinna Park. You have to spray the Bob-ombs with water and then throw on his cannon. After three hits he is defeated and the Shine Sprite yours.

Episode 2 — The Boss of Tricky Ruins

Follow the coins on the platforms and talk to Opsi (the old man). Once this is done, you can spray the wall with the FLUDD and try to hit the brown panels. Once you have made it, narrow corridors appear, which you can climb with several wall jumps. In the second section there is a small abbreviation. When you’re back up, you can drop out of the wall and skip the section that looks like a snail. Remember to float back into the wall in time. In the end, a fight against giant bloopers awaits you. The fighting tactics are clear. Free his face from the ink with water and stretch his nose. As a safety precaution, you can still leave the tentacles so that he does not kill you. If you defeated him, under him is a wooden platform that can be eliminated with a ground pound. There is also the Shine Sprite.

Episode 3 — Red Coins in a Bottle

Landed in the bottle, right under your nose is the first coin. If you now follow the yellow coins slowly downwards, you can catch three more Red Coins. On the bottom you will find the next Red Coin (5) before the arrow sign. Go one step further and you will be blown up. With a bit of luck, you get the sixth coin so on the first try. The seventh coin lies at the bottom of a stone and the last one is in a small bay in the stone structure. Once you have collected them all, you have earned the next Shine Sprite.

Episode 4 — Eely-Mouth's Dentist

The third mission was only a small exercise for the current one. With the diving suit you climb back up to where the cannon was earlier. Talk to Opsi and let her explain the situation. If this is done, you jump mortally into the waterfall. You end up in the home of the Paradiso, where the eel awaits his dental treatment at the bottom. So slowly slide up to the mouth, the eel. On the way, you can still gain air from the purple bubbles if you spray them with water. Once the eel has opened its mouth, it is cleaned. Spray carefully over each individual tooth with the Hover Nozzle until a melody sounds and the tooth is white again. Be careful not to be sucked in by the eel. If the air is scarce, you can find coins on the sides that give you new energy. Once you have cleaned all eight teeth (the four molars have to fall out), you will not only receive coins in the form of a heart, but also a Shine Sprite.

Episode 5 — Il Piantissimo's Surf Swim

It’s time for a race again, with the Il Piantissimo, to start the challenge. If you know the right way, a win is pretty easy. Once the race has started, you jump into the water and the best way to do so is to cover a long distance with the Hover Nozzle. Climb onto the platform and then jump from platform to platform towards the destination flag. So you can easily make a time under 00:30:00 seconds.

Episode 6 — The Shell's Secret

You will certainly notice the ropes that are stretched from shell to shell. Follow them and you will eventually end up at the top of the big shell. You can shorten the path a bit if you jump up on the ropes with enough momentum and reach the rope above you.

In the shell is again a bonus area. Spring back from platform to platform to get to the top. It will be a bit difficult even with the first block that goes out of the wall. The trick is to set a triple jump on the block with enough boot.Further up is a similar nasty spot (at the nail). To get up here, you need to use a combination of sideways jump and wall jump. This is the only way you can make some progress. The rest should not be a problem. With the platform screw that turns, it’s easier to jump sideways to reach the next platform instead of just jumping up. At the end, as always, a Shine Sprite is waiting.

Episode 7 — Hold It, Shadow Mario!

Shadow Mario is waiting for you below. Follow him and spray him with water. Your hunt leads to the top of the world and back again. Try to wet him on long straight stretches. If it is wiped out, you will get the next Shine Sprite.

Episode 8 — The Red Coin Fish

Go to the top where the waterfall springs. Opsi explains the situation to you and you can go back to the bay where the eel first lived. This time you don’t have to brush your teeth, but collect Red Coins. It is not easier than here in the whole game to bag all eight coins. They all swim in a coin crush as fish and can be reached by easy maneuvering with the Hover Nozzle. But beware, if you are not fast enough, they spread throughout the bay and you have to wait until they have found each other again as fish so that you can easily collect them.

Secret Shine 1 — The Shell's Secret

Start the 6. Mission again and climb into the shell. Activate the red switch in the shell so that eight coins appear. The first is not to be overlooked and can be reached using a side somersault. The second one is also on your way up. The third coin is on the platform where the arrows point upwards. From there you have to jump down to reach the fourth in the air floating. The remaining four coins are again directly on your way up and can all be grabbed by a side somersault. Once you have collected them all, the next Shine Sprite appears.

Secret Shine 2 — A Golden Bird

For the second secret Shine Sprite, either Mission 2 or 6 starts. Then follow the water platforms to the bay back left (where there is a small water source). Jump in the column in front of you with the wall jump up and follow the aisle left in the wall. Where you get out, you climb up two floors and drop into the hole in the wall. You end up on a trampoline that transports you directly to the top. A yellow bird flies up here. spray it with water until it becomes a Shine Sprite.
