'''Crescent Moon Village''' is the first [[level]] of the [[Sapphire Passage]] in ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. It is a small village set in the middle of the night with a large, crescent moon in the background and lots of lamp posts. It includes zombie and ghostly enemies, such as the [[Ghost (Wario Land 4)|ghost]], who steals the [[Coin (Wario Land 4)|coin]]s that either [[Wario]] or defeated [[:Category:Wario Land 4 enemies|enemies]] drop. The ghost also kidnaps [[Keyzer]] - the creature that unlocks the next level. It will then lock all doors in the area, forcing the player to rescue Keyzer in order to leave. Dividing the alleys where the ghost lurks are large, empty, buildings filled with [[Men'ono]], [[Minicula]], and [[Skeleton Bird]]s, the latter of which make progression difficult by forcing the player to fall through platforms. The level focuses on two transformations; [[Zombie Wario]], inflicted by the Skeleton Birds' projectile attacks, and [[Bat Wario]], given by Minicula. While the Bat form is required to reach a door and Keyzer, the Zombie form is merely used for a few secrets, and the plentiful lamps and spotlights allow Wario to return to normal. This level's [[CD]] is called [[Yesterday's Words]].

The time given to escape the level after hitting the [[Switch (Wario Land 4)|switch]] varies between [[Wario Land 4#Game mode|game modes]], including 3:30 in Normal mode, 2:45 in Hard, and 2:00 in S-Hard.

==Trivia==
* This level's music is briefly played in the ending cutscene in ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!]]'', during the section when Mona gets annoyed with Wario and chases him. Sound effects from ''Wario Land 4'' are also played during this time.
