Super Mario 64 Hints

How do I get the 6th star (Stop Time for Red Coins)?

  • 1 of 4: Before you enter this level, enter the clock face with the big hand directly on the 12 to have the gears stopped.
  • 2 of 4: Go right after you enter the level.
  • 3 of 4: Since you entered when the hand was on 12, the paddles won't move and you can jump on them to get all eight of the red coins.
  • 4 of 4: The star will appear at the end of the paddles after you retrieve all the coins.
