As the name would suggest, the level takes place high in the sky and the majority of the level consists of navigating moving platforms while the screen auto scrolls. The Advance Coins mostly lie on low cloud platforms.

Notes

  • This card was included as a bundle with the Super Leaf card in the first releases of Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3. Later releases did not include these cards due to the e-Reader being discontinued, however, the game still had support for said device, and the card could be used if an e-Reader was connected to the Game Boy Advance.
