In Super Mario 3D World, I've noticed that my levels will show various flags upon completion of a level.

What confuses me, though, is that some levels have a Gold flag, while others seem to only have a Red flag.

What do these different colors mean?

The different colors are showing how "good" you finished the level.

  • You get a golden flag if you jump to the very top of the flagpole at the end of the level
  • Green star above the flag means that you have all green stars collected in that level (3 stars every level)
  • Red flag means Mario was first to the pole, pink mean Princess Peach got there first, green is Luigi, blue is Toad and light blue for Rosalina
  • The green star above the flag will turn golden if you finish the level with all five playable characters.

  • Ooh, so the red flag means I didn't get the very top of the flag pole?

  • @RayofCommand - Red flag means Mario was first to the pole, pink mean Princess Peach got there first, green is Luigi, blue is Toad and light blue for Rosalina.

  • Also note that, after most of the postgame, the green stars will turn gold if you've completed the level with all the characters.
