Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:33, August 11, 2021

Template:SMOlocation-infobox The Mushroom Kingdom is the fifteenth kingdom visited in Super Mario Odyssey. It is the greater location of Peach's Castle, which is based on its design from Super Mario 64, sharing a similar layout (including the castle grounds, first floor interior, and courtyard), with the music of the interior being rearranged as well. The kingdom itself contains multiple references to Super Mario 64, with many of them taking the form of Power Moon requirements. The Mushroom Kingdom can be first seen by traveling through a painting in the Luncheon Kingdom, which leads to Yoshi's House on a floating platform away from the main area. The rest of the area cannot be explored until after rescuing Princess Peach from Bowser in the Moon Kingdom, after which the Odyssey can fly to the kingdom. Power Moons have a much different appearance in this kingdom, resembling Power Stars. However, when they are loaded into the Odyssey, they appear as Power Moons.

Brochure details

You'll always know whose castle this is.

A Lovely Portrait in Glass

Because Princess Peach is so often absent from her kingdom, her citizens took it upon themselves to create a stained-glass portrait of her on the castle balcony. While a pale reflection of the genuine article, the portrait brings comfort to the citizenry when their princess can't be with them.

Less "art storage" and more "art prison."

Towering Mysteries

In older times, the towers dotting the landscape here were watchtowers. Now they hold and preserve a series of mysterious paintings. These incredibly detailed works are so real that admirers speak of being pulled into another world by the paintings.

However, it's extremely rare for tourists to be permitted to see them, due to some undescribed danger, and casual visits are discouraged.

An image of the national attitude.

Places to Relax

The Toads of the Mushroom Kingdom value their relaxation and have created several lovely spots on the castle grounds for that purpose. Neither too small nor too large, and with just the right amount of ornamentation, these plazas and courtyards exemplify the best traits of this kingdom.

A bit more dangerous than it looks. A bit.

Slightly Scary Woods

Even the serene Mushroom Kingdom has its more dangerous locales. This forest was originally planted for mushroom cultivation, but while the mushrooms have flourished, a large number of wild Goombas have also moved in. While it's come to be known as Goomba Woods, it's still a pleasant place for a stroll, so if you're not afraid of these fearsome beasts, why not treat yourself to a walk?

Not very deep, so a good place to swim.

A Castle's Water Feature

The only lake on the castle grounds features a small but lovely waterfall and is a popular spot to visit. The lake formed naturally, but some claim that its shape is familiar. Hmm...

Not Mushrooms

These fruit thrive in the warm climate here and are a favorite of many creatures that reside in the Mushroom Kingdom.

This area must first be accessed by eating the berry blocking the Warp Pipe as Yoshi, who is found on top of Peach's Castle.
Moving 2D Area	Well	West of Peach's Castle	An 8-bit area composed of moving walls and spinning platforms. Mario must remain within these walls at all times while avoiding the Bullet Bills and Fuzzies throughout the area.
