TheLost Kingdom is the seventh kingdom visited inSuper Mario Odyssey. It is the greater location ofForgotten Isle, a large island surrounded bypoison. After defeatingBowser in theCloud Kingdom, he orders his airship to shoot cannonballs at Mario. Mario gets hit by one of these, causing both him and theOdyssey to crash-land in this kingdom. The Odyssey becomes damaged, forcing Mario andCappy to explore the island and collect at least 10 Power Moons. They can use these Power Moons to repair the Odyssey and continue their journey to the next kingdom—theMetro Kingdom.
The Lost Kingdom is located south-east of the Cloud Kingdom and south-west of the Metro Kingdom. It is the only one of the kingdoms to not involve any bosses at all (not counting theDarker Side). It is also the only one of the kingdoms to not involve any story missions at all (not counting theMushroom Kingdom), although the certain number of Power Moons are required to access the next kingdom. The kingdom resembles an archipelago of islands shaped like a palm tree.
According toThe Art of Super Mario Odyssey, the Lost Kingdom is based on the rainforests ofSoutheast Asia, likely the island ofBorneo and the nations ofIndonesia and thePhilippines. Due to the Lost Kingdom's large bodies of liquid, tall tree trunks, and dense foliage, it also bears a resemblance to the island nation ofMadagascar.
The music for Lost Kingdom is based ongamelan, traditional Indonesian ensemble music made up predominantly of percussive instruments. It is in the key of B♭ major, employing apentatonic scale {D, E♭, F, A, B♭} that approximates theselisir mode of thepelog tuning system. The theme has anodd time signature of11
16; withinSuper Mario music, it shares this allotment of 11 beats perbar with the high-placing results themes fromMario Kart 64 andMario Kart 7 (both11
8).
Brochure details[edit]
A Dense, Primeval Forest
Few visit these remote islands surrounded by poison, but they are dense with plants that have followed a unique evolutionary path. There is a strange unity between the vibrantly colored plants, the odd animals, and the sea of poison surrounding them.
Nature's Traffic Lights
TheTropical Wigglers found here are not aggressive and are mostly genial and pleasant creatures. You should, however, avoid touching them, for safety's sake. They stretch and contract their bodies constantly and have a habit of stretching across major pathways, so you may need to wait for the right moment to pass. This behavior has given them the nickname "traffic lights of the island." Be sure to look both ways before your cross.
Thief of the Skies
The undisputed ruler of the skies here is theKlepto. This large bird has keen eyesight that enables it to spot prey from far above before swooping down to snatch it up in an instant. Once ensnared in its sharp claws, escape is quite difficult, and many smaller visitors have been carried off in this way.
Ruins Steeped in Mystery
The purpose of the distinctive ruins scattered throughout the island remains unclear. The starburst pattern that appears on them MAY indicate a spot of capable of withstanding agreat impact. The builders clearly mastered stonework, as these structures still operate and move perhaps centuries after their creators had disappeared.
Watch Those Hands
TheTrapeetle is a local hazard. Its large hands capture prey, who are held tight as the creature explodes in a tragic display seen absolutely nowhere else in nature. Best to avoid.
A Symbol from Ancient Times
Now seen all over the world, this starburst symbol is thought to have originated on these islands. Butwhat does it communicate? The mystery may never be solved.
Three Keys to the Kingdom
- Enjoy the breathtaking scenery, but beware the death-dealing poison.
- Watch the Tropical Wiggler grow and shrink—it is simply mesmerizing.
- Puzzle over the odd mechanics of these strange ruins.

Power Moons[edit]
- Main article:List of Power Moons in the Lost Kingdom
There are a total of 35Power Moons in the Lost Kingdom. During the player's first visit to this kingdom, they can collect 20 Power Moons. After the player leaves the kingdom and comes back, 1 more Power Moon is available to collect. After the player defeats Bowser in theMoon Kingdom, 4 more Power Moons become available to collect. TheMoon Rock will also be available to destroy, causing 10 additional Power Moons to be accessible.
In order to repair the Odyssey and progress to the next kingdom, the player must collect at least 10 Power Moons. The player also needs access to Cappy, since throwing him onto the Odyssey's globe starts the repair cutscene. Since Mario and Cappy intended to go to theMetro Kingdom before the sequence of events that crashed them here, upon repairing the Odyssey they automatically go to the Metro Kingdom without accessing the map screen.
Regional coins[edit]
- Main article:List of regional coins in the Lost Kingdom
The Lost Kingdom contains 50regional coins. They take the form of striped leaves which closely resemble aSuper Leaf, but without the eyes or the missing piece on the upper left.
