Super Mario 64 Hints
How do I get the 3rd star (Get a Hand)?
1 of 7: The title for the star is "Get a Hand" and you're on a clock level.
2 of 7: Clocks have hands.
3 of 7: The star is on one of the hands.
4 of 7: Walk up the striped paths and past all the obstacles until you get near the large clock hands.
5 of 7: When it comes by, jump on it.
6 of 7: Stay on it until the clock hand points directly at a star, which hovers in a depression in the wall directly in front of you.
7 of 7: Run off the end of the hand and grab the star.
