8-Coin Puzzle with 15 Pieces is the third mission of Lethal Lava Land. To complete it, Mario must collect eight red coins on top of a set of 15 continuously moving platforms that resemble a 15-puzzle and are decorated with a picture of Bowser. The platforms move without care for Mario, and may move out from under him spontaneously.

This star is one of the fastest to collect in the game since the red coins are very close to one another and to the star marker.
