The goal of 120 star is collect every star and beat the game.
Category Rules
- Collect all 120 stars.
- Beat the game.
- No gameplay restrictions. In particular, all forms of BLJ and sequence breaks such as skipping door requirements is allowed.
Notes
Unlike with vanilla runs, it's not really necessary to learn 70 star before learning 120 as the majority of levels have significantly different routing between the two categories. Also, the Bowser stages, Bowser fights, and most of the Castle Secret stars are identical to vanilla strats. Any differences will be noted in the route list next to the links to the vanilla pages for those stars/stages.
Route
There are many routes for 120 star involving different stage order and castle movement. The route used in this guide is as up-to-date as possible with the latest strategies for world record contention. Beginner strats, where applicable, can be found in each stage's guide page.
