To mark a stage as cleared in Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania, all you need to do is pause the game and go to Mark as Cleared. However, doing this will cost you 2,000 points, meaning you will need to work a little more in other stages to gather the points to unlock characters, cosmetics, or special modes.

Before you run to mark a stage as cleared, we would recommend trying the Helper Function. That way, you won’t be paying points to advance, and you might learn what you are doing wrong. You won’t gain points from the Helper Function, but at least you won’t lose any, and you can always turn it off whenever you want. On some levels, it will help to have the game show you the best route to take to find the end goal.
