Lizard Charm Stone [Spoilers]
I'll preface by saying that the game is great, I finished my playthrough today and had a lot of fun with it.

However, the platforming challenge with the springs and breakable blocks is way too difficult. The other challenges are hard but surmountable with good gear, but requiring pixel-perfect mastery of the game's locomotion system for this one is ridiculous.

Being able to screw yourself over with a single mistake is too punishing, and a massive waste of time to the point where I'd would have preferred to grind for charm stones as in the original Master System game.

Yeah, I just finished that one then headed to the mouse-man one. I gotta say, the mouse-man one is WAY harder because one mistake almost takes you back to square one.

I personally didn't find the Lizard-Man Unkown stage that difficult and it was the first one I tried. After a few trial and error attempts I figured out the movement and position you have to be in for the blocks to not break. Like mentioned above though, that Mouse-Man stage is way more brutal in comparison.

just use magical saber and you can't break the blocks anymore

that's fiendishly clever, although jumping around for ages and finally managing to get to the door felt so damn good!.

Passed it by luck, but it is nothing compared to how annoying the mouse-man level is.
