Top Ten Hardest Super Mario 3D World Levels

The Top Ten
1 Champions Road

Hey. If you're really good at Mario, you're gonna have to go through me! -Champion's Road, 2013

The one everyone talks about as being hard. Swimmingbird941 took a long time to beat it.

I have not even unlocked this world yet!

It's the last level. What do you expect?

2 Mystery House Marathon

Completing 30 levels with a 10 second limit each in a row is really hard.

Very frustrating level

3 Broken Blue Bully Belt

This level is actually called Broken *Boiling* Blue Bully Belt. Still, easier said than done, and it is REALLY hard to say, just to give you and idea of how hard this level is. If you don't have a tanooki suit, good luck beating this. The platforms rise and sink into the lava at such a pace that you have very little time to react. The part with the spikes are insanely hard as you have to time your jumps so precisely.

Frustrating

4 Cosmic Cannon Cluster

Not only is this level hard, it's also boring. You start off on a switchboard while dodging a few cannonballs and parabones. You also get hold of a cannon box for yourself too. However, the next part absolutely killed me. I had to precisely time my jumps off four cannonballs to get up a wall. It was so freaking hard, and I eventually had to resort to using a super bell so I could climb up the wall without having to bounce of those cannonballs.
This part is followed by an extremely slow underwater section filled with cannons, cannons and more cannons. It's not the hardest part of the level, but it is really boring, as it's an autoscroller.
After what seemed like an eternity I reached the checkpoint, but the next part is enough alone to make this level be one of my top ten hardest. You have to stand on a switchboard while shooting charged up cannons from your cannon box to hit these exclamation mark switches which open up the track so you can advance. If you ever lose your cannon ...more

I actually found it quite easy. It's difficult but I managed to beat it in a couple of tries

5 Captain Toads Fiery Final

This is like 10 times harder than champions road

True, quite a challenge

6 Piranha Creeper Creek After Dark

The level itself is hard enough, with very little light to guide you, but getting the green stars is absolute hell. The first and third are ok, but the second is so freaking annoying because your have to aim your fireballs almost perfectly while jumping, risking death.

Getting the green stars is a nightmare!

7 Shiftier Boo Mansion

This is like a troll level made by Nintendo. If you don't find the secret warp box then you will be travelling in this endless cycle trying to find out what the heck you have to do. I remember being stuck at the last section for a log time and I only noticed that teleportation cube thingy under the bridge when there was only about 30 or 40 seconds left on the clock.

The one in world Bowser

8 Red Hot Run
9 Rammerhead Reef

Not so hard if you have the gold leaf, but if you don't have it this level is a pain. I remember dying so many times because the rammerheads were all over the place!

10 Boss Blitz

The bosses aren't really too hard, maybe except Motley, but the reason why I find this level hard is the timer. You need to get near perfect boss wins in order to beat the level within the time limit.

I had 69 seconds on the clock after the first 5 bosses but then I realised that I still had one more to go.

Not hard, just takes a lot of time

The Contenders
11 Faster Fort Fire Bros

This is, in my opinion, one of the most stressful levels in the game. You start of with 30 seconds on the clock. Timers are sparse, and your under so much pressure to beat this level in time that the chances are you will fall in to the lava.

Collecting all those clocks can be a pain

12 Switch Shock Circus

The green stars kind of suck. The first one is easy, but for the second one you have hurry up the walls to get all eight green star coins and you have to be really accurate with throwing the baseball to get the final green star.

For some reason I found this one so hard!

13 Grumblump Inferno

The way many people play this level is by jumping from each side of the shapes while you're just meant to run or walk across them. Nevertheless, it's still a freakishly hard level.

14 Super Galaxy

I didn't really have a problem with it

I found it easy

15 Blast Block Skyway
16 Honeycomb Skyway
17 Beat Block Galaxy

This one was a nightmare! This is sooo hard! This one was the worst level ever! So hard. We need more levels like this one! Nowadays, Mario Games are too easy. I got past this one after only about five tries or so, even this hard one was too easy. It should have taken me at least fifteen tries.

Um that's Super Mario Galaxy 2

Took me forever to beat

18 Super Bell Hill

I hate this level! It is so hard I kept dying! I can’t catch the rabbit at all! Whenever I climb up walls with the cat suit I keep falling off and I also keep pounding into ditches and dying! THIS LEVEL IS A NIGHTMARE! I died in this level 23 times before beating it! Why would Nintendo even create a level as challenging as this?!?! THE MEGA MUSHROOM IS SO HARD TO CONTROL! The mega mushroom makes you walk so slow and it’s so easy to fall of because it makes you so FAT and you jump so HIGH with it! Also whenever I climb up trees I ALWAYS FALL OFF WHEN JUMPING OFF! Also the music keeps repeating and it’s so annoying when you have to repeat the level 23 TIMES! I can’t even climb walls at sometimes with the stupid CAT SUIT! Why is the name even super bell hill!? ITS NOT EVEN A HILL, It's A HARD LEVEL WITH GRASS AND CATS AND ANNOYING CLEAR PIPES! Don’t get me started on clear pipes. GEEZ, those stupid clear pipes, I always die in them because enemies go in at the same time! ALSO ...more

Ugh this level is stupid

19 Rolling Ride Run

This level is a joke, not as hard as others, but still stupid hard

20 Fuzzy Flood Mine
21 Floating Fuzzy Time Mine
22 Rainbow Run
23 Trick Trap Tower

It has taken me forever to beat this but I eventually beat it with a friend.

I kept dieing
