A Deep Dive into Power Moon 45: Walking the Desert

This Power Moon isn’t just lying around waiting to be picked up. It requires a bit of skill and a keen eye. Once you find the Red Koopa, brace yourself for a challenge. You’ll need to navigate the desert, following a specific, often tricky path that the Koopa lays out.

The Koopa’s Challenge: A Test of Agility and Precision

The Red Koopa sets up a timed challenge. Your task is to traverse the desert, touching the markers he places along the route. Missing a marker or failing to complete the course within the time limit means starting over. The course typically involves jumps, careful maneuvering, and quick reactions.

Tips and Tricks for Mastering the Course

• Map it Out: Before starting, take a moment to visually scan the course. Try to anticipate the jumps and turns to plan your route effectively.
• Utilize Cappy: Cappy can be your best friend here. Use him for slight extra reach on jumps or to quickly adjust your direction mid-air.
• Practice Makes Perfect: Don’t get discouraged if you don’t succeed on your first attempt. The course can be challenging, but with a few tries, you’ll memorize the layout and nail the timing.
• Stay Calm: The timer can be stressful, but panicking will only lead to mistakes. Take deep breaths and focus on each jump and turn.
