'''Tostarena Ruins''' is a structure located in the center of the [[Sand Kingdom]] in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]].'' The entrance to the ruins is directly north of [[Tostarena Town]]. The ruins are filled with [[quicksand]] and [[Sand Geyser]]s. [[Bill Blaster]]s are stationed throughout the area, launching [[Bullet Bill]]s that home in on [[Mario]]. The Bullet Bills can be [[capture]]d, which is necessary to obtain some [[Power Moon]]s. The objective of the Sand Kingdom's first story mission, [[Atop the Highest Tower]], is to reach the top of the ruins.

In the [[Nintendo Switch]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] ports of ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', the first part of the level [[Secret of the Inverted Pyramid]] takes place in a condensed version of Tostarena Ruins.
==Layout==
At the start of the ruins, Mario will encounter [[Mini Goomba]]s (later replaced with ordinary [[Goomba]]s wearing sombreros). After going up the stairs and to the right, a Bill Blaster will start shooting Bullet Bills at Mario. Mario can capture the Bullet Bill and use it to travel through some [[coin ring]]s, or he can simply ride the moving platform. Either way, he will reach an area with cracked stone blocks and another Bill Blaster. The blocks are destroyed when hit by Bullet Bills. Destroying the glowing one reveals a Power Moon. On the next floor, Mario will find a [[Checkpoint Flag]]. After defeating [[Knucklotec]], [[Goombette]] will appear in this area. There is a staircase leading down to a hole in the quicksand that takes Mario to the [[Sand Kingdom#Bonus areas|Ice Cave]]. To the left of the hole is a secret room underneath the wall with a Power Moon inside.

To the left of the Checkpoint Flag is a trio of Sand Geysers leading across the quicksand. Near the Sand Geysers is a caged Power Moon which can be obtained by ramming a Bullet Bill into the cage. Crossing the Sand Geysers takes Mario to an area with some [[cactus]]es and an [[8-bit pipe]]. In the following 2D area, Mario must dodge some Bullet Bills. After exiting the 2D area, Mario will find another Bill Blaster and some [[crate]]s. One of the crates contains a Power Moon, while another contains [[binoculars]]. Mario can capture a Bullet Bill and use it to get on top of the front gate, where a Power Moon can be found. Three moving platforms are floating above a sand slide, which has a Power Moon on it. At the bottom of the sand slide is an alcove where Mario can find another Power Moon.

The three moving platforms lead to the base of a tower with another pipe leading to a 2D area with Bullet Bills. Two Power Moons can be found here, one by collecting [[note]]s, and another by discovering a hidden area near the top. At the top of the tower is a Checkpoint Flag and the first story moon. Collecting it spawns platforms leading to the [[Moe-Eye Habitat]] and begins [[Moon Shards in the Sand]], the second story mission.

After completing the third story mission, [[Showdown on the Inverted Pyramid]], a [[Tostarenan]] extends a power line from Tostarena Town to the tower, so Mario can use [[spark pylon]]s to zip between these areas. After the final story mission, [[The Hole in the Desert]], that same Tosteranian gets their power line to link the tower and the [[Inverted Pyramid]], though Mario has to walk between the spark pylons on the tower. [[Glydon]] also appears at the top of the tower after The Hole in the Desert.
