Template:More images Template:SMOlocation-infobox The Dark Side of the Moon is a secret kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey, and is the greater location to Rabbit Ridge. It is reachable once the main game is completed and 250 Power Moons have been obtained.[1] Rabbit Ridge is the home of the Broodals, and is ruled over by Madame Broode. Due to her love of vegetables, many statues of vegetables can be found scattered around the kingdom, primarily turnips. The largest one, however, is a carrot statue known as Rabbit Ridge Tower. In Rabbit Ridge Tower, the Broodals challenge Mario to a rematch. Outside the tower, many generic rabbits wearing top hats can be found; they can be neither spoken with nor captured. Rabbit Ridge is, according to the brochure, "the last word in dedicated wedding planning".

Power Moons

There are a total of 24 Power Moons on the Dark Side.
(❸=Multi-Moon)

  • 01: Arrival at Rabbit Ridge: ❸ Obtained after defeating all Broodals and RoboBrood at Rabbit Ridge Tower. There is only one heart after defeating the Broodals and before confronting RoboBrood.
  • 02: Captain Toad on the Dark Side!: Received from Captain Toad after finding him near the top of Rabbit Ridge Tower.
  • 03: Breakdown Road: Hurry!: Same as Down and Back Breakdown Road from Wooded Kingdom, but without the assistance of Cappy (therefore cannot capture Banzai Bill to return to Power Moons).

In-game brochure descriptions

A Tasty-Looking Tower

This ostentatious stone tower was carved at the direction of the vegetable-loving Madame Broode, who lords over Rabbit Ridge.

Her underlings, the Broodals, live within and always have a warm "welcome" for visitors.

Topper, Client Relations

Responsible for client relations on behalf of the Broodals' wedding-planning firm, Topper is usually found on-site, troubleshooting.

You can tell how serious he is about a battle by the number of hats he has stacked on his head: he doesn't tap into his full hat reserves except for the most dangerous opponents. So if you square off with him and he seems to be mostly hat, you should feel honored...and afraid.

Rango, the Bouncer

He's not the most focused, but Rango is a valuable player on the Broodals team, always coming through in the end. A master of his boomeranging trampoline hat, he can throw it both straight and curved with almost unnatural control over the way it flies. On the other hand, he sometimes zones out a bit and looks confused. That's your chance to counterattack!

Hariet, Pyrotechnics

The least predictable of the Broodals, Hariet is most often found throwing bombs with her hair. When her homemade bombs explode, they leave a pool of fire on the ground, so try knocking them away before they explode. While it may seem reckless to have filled her hat with bombs, Hariet is devious and keeps a lot of spare explosives with her, so watch out!

Spewart, the Entertainer

Spinning around while spitting poison in a wide area, Spewart is the least subtle of the Broodals. But he also has an unexpectedly artistic side, as his poisonous ground-paintings show.

Three Keys to the Kingdom

  1. Watch out for the moon's light gravity; you can still die falling off a cliff.
  2. Investigate behind all those stone-carved vegetables.
  3. Greet all FOUR of the keys to this kingdom. You know who they are.

One Last Door

For those travelers who survive the "hospitality" of the Broodals, a new challenge may await...
