It has a total of 11 floors, with Boulder Quarry consisting of five floors, Deep Boulder Quarry of five floors and Boulder Quarry Clearing of one floor. There is a relay point between 5F in Boulder Quarry and 1F in Deep Boulder Quarry. The music is a remix of the music from Mt. Steel in the first game.

After going through Boulder Quarry, Team Charm comes to Illusion Stone Chamber (Japanese: げんえいのいわべや), where there are two paths to take.
