-----SPOILER ALERT! WORSE THAN LAST TIME!-----
YI is the best platformer on any consloe ever. The difference is that YI requires A LOT of ingenuity to beat completely. The other platforms are a bit more.... linear?
Of course, the irony behind that statement is that YI is about the only Mario platformer that requires you to play the levels in a certain order.
And here's the 5 flowers in Secret 5.
1: The easy one: in the ice room.
2: In the red room, there's a pipe. Go in it, and get the lower in the ice block.
*3: In the yellow room, there's a blue watermelon in an ice block. melt the ice, get this watermelon, and go to the area with the two Tap-Taps. Freeze them (Don't waste your ice) and bounce off them over the wall. Reach the end of this section, and freeze the Tap-Taps you see at the end for a Flower.
*4: In the green room, there's a pipe you can go in. Go in there, and climb the ice blocks carefully by getting a red watermelon, and melting just the right blocks to get the next watermelon and climb the tower. There is a flower on the top.
5: In the area in the beginning above the watermelon, there is a section with a hidden door on the right side. There are 5 Bandits inside; beat them all for a Flower.
* -- Denotes flowers I THINK you missed.
And 3 red coins. Ah well.
Tell me if you are still stuck.
Congratulations! You have just been blessed by the wisdom of Steve.
