Walking
Walking is the 2nd Advanced floor in Monkey Ball, Super Monkey Ball, Super Monkey Ball Deluxe, and Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania, the 42nd Ultimate stage with continues in Super Monkey Ball Deluxe (62nd without continues), and the 14th Marathon stage of Super Monkey Ball in Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania.
In Story Mode, it appears as World 2-16 and is given a 1 out of 10 difficulty rating.
Description
The stage features a long path with various hazards for the player to encounter. The first section features hills, followed by a guard railed section with chicanes, then a round open section littered with bumpers, a new hazard introduced by this stage, and finally a narrower section with square gaps. Immediately after the chicanes is an optional side path down a gentle slope, leading to a banana bunch guarded by a bumper.
Strategy
The hills can be cleared by simply going straight, and the section with chicanes present little risk due to the guard rails. Care is required around the bumpers, as they deal a surprising amount of knockback, which may disorient the player or cause a fallout. The square gaps can be manoeuvred around using careful movement, or simply skipped over with a moderate amount of speed.
