Super Mario 64 Hints
How do I get the 5th star (Tricky Triangles!)?
1 of 9: At the crossroads, while riding the carpet, go West.
2 of 9: Continue on the path until you reach the pole.
3 of 9: At the top is a teeter-totter.
4 of 9: Use it to continue on the path to a large swinging platform.
5 of 9: Proceed from the platform to the collapsing steps all the way to the wooden ramp with the Goomba at the bottom.
6 of 9: Go to the right until you find a big "!" switch.
7 of 9: When you press the switch, all the pyramids in your path will become flat, so you can run on them.
8 of 9: Hurry, you don't have that much time.
9 of 9: At the end of the new path, the star is floating atop a stone surface.
