'''Drybake Desert''' is level 2-1 in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. It comprises of a vast desert filled with quicksand and an underground area.

[[File:PyramidPMSS.png|thumb|left|The pyramid.]]
The level starts in a grassy area where a [[Goomba]] can be found guarding the Sticker inside the block. This is not a requirement though. When the player continues on, a huge gate blocking the way to the desert. Using [[Paperize]], a Jump, Hammer, Mushroom, Poison Mushroom, Fire or Ice Flower and Spike Helmet stickers must be placed in the gate to open it. The gate opens to reveal a short cave area inhabited by Swoops and a single Buzzy Beetle that can make the [[First Strike]] if it sees Mario. The cave exits to the desert itself, where a [[Save Block]] and [[Heart Block]] can be found, along with a Sombrero Guy. Traversing over the hill will reveal the [[Traveling Toad]] being attacked by a gang of Paragoombas. Once saved, the grateful Toad will give a Shiny Mushroom sticker as a reward.

The next area is an area with a few quicksand flows and a hollow cave with coins. Pokeys are first found here. After that, there is a vast quicksand hill with Pokeys following the current. The Soda item is located
at the downhill section, and south of that is a sandfall with two striped cacti, which indicate the hidden cave area is nearby. Sinking into the quicksand between the cacti will take Mario to a cave area with one of three Tablet Piece scraps. Nearby is a sand geyser that will take Mario back up to the divide of the sand flow. The flow then descends to the pyramid, where an [[MAX UP Heart|HP-Up Heart]] can be found, along with the [[Comet Piece]].

=== Secret Door ===
The Secret Door is located behind the sole Sombrero Guy on the pyramid. It contains the Car Battery.

=== Sticker upgrade spots ===
# After the first slope in the third map.
# Above a Sombrero Guy behind rocks in the third map.
# After the quicksand hill in the fifth map are two brick blocks with a gap in the middle. The gap contains the upgrade spot.
# In the cave with the Tablet Piece, to the bottom right of the leftmost ? Block.
# On the pyramid near the area with a Green Pokey and a Worn-Out Jump Sticker.
