It is the first non-tutorial kingdom in the game, and the kingdom used in the demo. Tostarena is a desert village featuring a small town and a large ruins area. This kingdom's main landmark is the Inverted Pyramid, which is an upside-down pyramid located in the north-east section of the area. When Mario first visits here, the kingdom is covered with large pillars of ice and Bowser is found atop the Inverted Pyramid.

The '''Sand Kingdom''' is the third kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey, and the first that allows the player a large degree of freedom in how to approach it. Because none of the [[Story moon|story moons]] are required to exit the kingdom, the player can collect any moons they choose.


==Tricks==
== Main Story ==
After leaving the Cascade Kingdom, Mario and [[Cappy]] head to the Sand Kingdom. However, when they arrive, they find it covered in Sand. This is because the [[Broodals]] stole the Binding Band.


===Speedrun tricks===
=== Atop the Highest Tower ===
The first Story Moon is located at the top of the tower in the Sand Kingdom Ruins. Mario traverses through the Ruins, usually collecting Power Moons along the way, then reaches the top.


*[[Daylight Savings Time Abuse]]
=== Moon Shards in the Sand ===
*[[Dram Strat]]
After collecting the "Atop the Highest Tower" moon, a platform appears. When Mario steps on it, it begins to move. This is the intended way to get to the Moe-Eye Habitat, but it is also possible to use a [[Bullet Bills|Bullet Bill]] to get across.
*[[Jaxi Skip]]
*[[Reverse Jaxi Skip]]
*[[Sphynx Clip]]
*[[Inverted Pyramid Clip]]
*[[Inverted Pyramid Skip]]


=== Low% tricks ===
Once Mario reaches the Moe-Eye Habitat, he begins collecting Moon Shards. Bowser's footprints are shown on the island, and there is a frozen P-Switch. There's a few invisible things on the island as well. Once Mario collects all the Moon Shards and gets the Power Moon, a bridge appears that Mario can use to get to the mainland.


* [[Inverted Pyramid Skip]]
=== Inverted Pyramid Showdown ===
After obtaining "Atop the Highest Tower" and "Moon Shards in the Sand", the entrance to the Inverted Pyramid opens up, and Mario can enter. However, the is a glitch that All Moon speedrunners use called the Pyramid Clip to get in without the moons.


==Moons==
Once Mario gets in, he must traverse through the pyramid, half the time in 8-bit form, and reach the top.
There are 89 distinct [[Power Moon]]s in the Sand Kingdom. 69 are listed from the start, with an additional 20 becoming available after breaking the [[Moon Rock]]. Four of these are [[Story moon|story moons]], with two being [[Multi Moon|Multi Moons]].


In addition to the Power Moons listed below, the [[Desert Wanderer]] tourist quest must be started here by talking to the tourist near Tostarena Town, although this will not immediately award the player a Power Moon. The prerequisites for making the Desert Wanderer appear and begin the quest are to collect ''The Hole in the Desert'' and complete the game.
At the top of the Inverted Pyramid, Mario fights Hariet, one of the Broodals. Upon defeat, she drops a Multi Moon.

==References==
=== The Hole in the Desert ===
Mario gets back to the Odyssey at nightfall, and realizes that the Inverted Pyramid is rising. Since they have nothing better to do, the go investigate. When traveling to the hole that the Pyramid left, Mario is attacked by Chinchos.


<references />
Inside the hole, Mario traverses through the Underground Temple, to the

{{Level navbox|mw-collapsed}}
Deepest Underground. Mario then captures a Bullet Bill to go to the place where you fight Knuckletoc. Upon defeat, it drops a Multi Moon, and the Sand Kingdom becomes warm again.
[[Category:Kingdoms]]
 
=== Post-Story and Post-Game ===
After you complete the story, Sand Kingdom becomes warm, and Glydon goes to the top of the Round Tower. The taxi arrives, making one Tostaranean excited.
 
After you complete the game, the Binding Band is returned to the Inverted Pyramid.
 
== Geography ==
The Sand Kingdom is a large, expansive kingdom with plenty of space between things. Power Lines and the Jaxi make it easier to navigate.
 
=== Tostarana Town ===
Tostarana Town has short, flat, colorful buildings, and are connected to everywhere else with Power Lines. Most Tostaraneans live here.
 
=== Tostarana Ruins ===
The Tostarana Ruins are filled with enemies, quicksand, and Power Moons. Goombas and Bullet Bills are now the only things that live in the Ruins. After you complete the story, Glydon appears at the top of the Round Tower.
 
=== Jaxi Ruins ===
The Jaxi Ruins is surrounded by purple water that only the Jaxi can touch without getting hurt. There are some small islands within the purple water that have purple coins on them.
[[File:JaxiRuins.jpeg|thumb|220x220px|The top of the Jaxi Ruins.]]
At the top of the Jaxi Ruins, there is a chest full of coins, a chest with a power moon in it, and the Jaxi. Paying for the Jaxi here grants access to it early. If you don't, it will appear in front of Tostarana Town after you complete the story.
 
Inside the Jaxi Ruins is the "Jaxi Driver" subarea.
 
=== Oasis ===
There is a small oasis east of the Odyssey which Mario can explore. It has trees that he can climb, one has a Music Note Moon on top.
 
The Oasis is frozen if Mario has not completed the story yet. Lakitu is also frozen in the ice. After the story is completed, Lakitu will be fishing in the Oasis, and, after capturing him, Mario can collect a Fish Moon.
 
=== Inverted Pyramid ===
The Inverted Pyramid is filled with obstacles, from going across a gap using a Bullet Bill, to traversing in 2D upside
[[File:InsidePyramid.jpeg|left|thumb|220x220px|The inside of the Inverted Pyramid]]
-down. At the entrance to the top of the pyramid, there is a series of cacti.
 
The Inverted pyramid is hexagonal, with a statue of a Jaxi on every corner except one. Taking the Jaxi to that corner makes him reveal that he may once have been that statue.
 
The Battlefield, like the pyramid, is hexagonal. It is flat, and after the story is completed, a Mound appears on it.
 
=== Tostarana Northwest Reaches ===
The Tostarana Northwest Reaches is a small ruin, one building that contains the "Bullet Bill Maze" subarea. On top of the building is a Scarecrow, on the side of the building are many "Bowser & Peach Wedding" advertisement posters that a Tostaranean pays Mario a Power Moon to take off.
 
This is also the starting point for the Sand Kingdom Koopa Freerunning
 
=== Outside ===
Tostarana is surrounded by a large and deep ravine. On the other side, there is only sand.
