Flower Fruit Mountain

Rescue your friends and defeat the Celestial Fleet

To use the Power Rod, you'll have to double tap Square in mid-air. This will cause Kongo to spin around with the Power Rod in his hands for a few seconds, destroying anybody he touches. Unfortunately, he gets dizzy and is stunned for a few seconds afterwards. Now you can get out of the room at the start.

When you continue, you'll run into Fanya, who will tell you that Wowser, Redchimp and Sarge have been taken hostage by the Celestial soldiers along with all the children. From there, you'll have to go through four teleporters (not just one like I originally thought). I enter the one all the way to the left. Just walk up into a teleporter and you'll use it to go to another section.

From here, your skills with the four magic spells will be put to the test. Use Fire to get past the ice fields, Ice to freeze platforms in case they move too fast for your liking, and use the Triangle Button to flip switches like you did in the abandoned nuclear plant. Also, using the Power Rod will wipe out the Celestial soldiers in one hit, but still leaves you stunned for a few seconds, so be careful.

The purple spiked bombs are balls. If you touch just one, it's instant death. The spikes are also instant death, and they will be impossible to get out of if you jump into them.

To free Sarge, freeze the cage with the Ice spell, then hit switch #1 and wait for the cage to thaw out. Go right and flip switch #2. From here, you can freeze the platform above where switch #2 is, hit the nearby wooden lever, un-freeze the platform and then get the key where the cage was. From there, you can use Key #1.

If you need to, use the Ice spell to freeze the platforms afterwards, as they can be rather fast and hard to get to. I made those two platform look easier than they actually were.

You will see four switches: two on one layer and two on the other. You need to make sure the layer with the bombs is in the background. Hit a switch, then trap both bombs near one of the switches. From there, you can easily get to the other one in the background and flip it. This is a very simple puzzle, assuming you can get the timing down on trapping the bombs temporarily. Once you flip the two switches near the exit, you can get out of this part of the level. One down, three to go.
