It is the fifth main world in the original game, but is the seventh in the remake, placed afterSlippery Summit instead. This world is set in a forest at dusk, and it contains a number of gimmicks likeDirection Switches andBob-omb Blocks, in addition to new enemies likeBats andSpear Guys.

Bonus level[edit]
Exclusively in theNintendo Switch version ofMario vs. Donkey Kong is a bonus level that appears after completing enough levels in this world. The layout featuresHammers and severalrocks that block off the chest and some1-Up Mushrooms, requiring the player to use the Hammers to excavate the entire level for bonuses. Like in most bonus levels, the player needs to catch theflying key and bring it to the chest to successfully complete it, but must also clear the way for the chest first using the Hammers before doing so.
