- “Pretty grandiose fortress for a bunch of little minions... Overcompensate much?”
- —Kersti,Paper Mario: Sticker Star
Goomba Fortress is level 1-6 in the gamePaper Mario: Sticker Star. This is where the firstRoyal Sticker is found, and where theMegasparkle Goomba is fought.
Layout[edit]
Mario comes here to look for a Royal Sticker. The start of thefortress, inside is ablock that will change the bridge's direction when hit. North exit, there is aSave Block andBowser Tape that can be pulled to cover half the spikes with carpet. The east exit leads to an area whereParabombs try and land on him until becomingBob-ombs; after that, Mario makes it to the second bridge room to the east. There will be somecoins and aShiny Jump sticker behind a fake wall to the right.
When Mario heads north, he will be blown off the bridge by two fans when trying to cross the bridge. The player can pass this by switching toPaperize and placing two unwanted stickers over the fans, the player will quickly have to cross the bridge again, for they will not last. Then Mario reaches another outside area with gates blocking the way and more Parabombs, tasking Mario to lure the Bob-ombs to clear the way.
The next bridge room seems to have a useless block, until Mario goes into Paperize and re-sticks the block the correct way. Heading south, Mario will pull off moreBowser Tape to cover the rest of the spikes. The last area is a winding staircase in a tower that leads to the fight with the boss.Luigi can be seen while Mario walks toward the staircase.
