“If we could move these blocks we could visit this hostile, unforgiving wasteland anytime we wanted.”

—Beep-0, before World 2

Sherbet Desert is the second world inMario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, and the first world in which enemies start using Super Effects and Techniques. It is a desert and snow area located to the west ofAncient Gardens and to the east ofSpooky Trails, consisting of many canyons, snowdrifts, frozenBloopers, and an icy summit. Hallmarks of this world include gigantic Rabbid underwear entangled into the scenery, as well as the remains of a dilapidated mine. An ancient Rabbid-themed temple is located in Sherbet Desert as well, hosting a site with sarcophaguses, vases, and hieroglyphs, which curiously depict the main story of the game. Another thematic element of this world are groups of strange, Rabbid balls that bounce on cactus-like drums. These can occasionally be spotted in the nearby scenery, and approaching them adds a rattling percussion to the music.

History[edit]

Mario and co. first land in Sherbet Desert while pursuingBowser Jr. andSpawny. After a brief run-in with Bowser Jr., Mario and co. happen to meet up withToad, whom they escort toToadette. Mario and co. then fightsBlizzy andSandy, andRabbid Mario joins shortly thereafter. Venturing into the summit, they encounter a refridgerator, which Spawny uses theSupaMerge on to form theIcicle Golem.Princess Peach joins immediately thereafter. After defeating Icicle Golem,Beep-0 reports that Bowser Jr. had fled to Spooky Trails, thus revealing their next destination.

Overview[edit]

In Sherbet Desert, the heroes traverse landscapes that are both snowy and sandy. After defeating the Icicle Golem, the player can re-enter this world from one of five starting points, named in-game after the areas they are found in. Below is an overview of Sherbet Desert from each starting point onward.

Hot N' Cold Commons[edit]

Hot N' Cold Commons

The heroes start out Sherbet Desert inHot N' Cold Commons, an expansive area with both snow and sand. There are several paths that converge into this area, but two of them are initially blocked by snow blocks, prompting the heroes to take the sandy path in front of their starting positions. Two consecutive battlefields are found on this path, whereSherbet Ziggies are introduced inChapter 2-1, and the road becomes increasingly more snowy, ending with an icy field where the heroes need to bring aRabbid Mario pinball onto an icy slant. The slant causes the pinball to roll through and smash the snow blocks from earlier, opening a path back to the starting area and a sandy pass straight ahead. This path weaves around a gulch with giant undergarments on wires, and leads onto a battlefield whereSherbet Smashers first appear.

Lazy River[edit]

Lazy River

The second starting point is located in a desert oasis around theLazy River. The oasis is preceded by a sandy passageway after the battlefield in the undergarment gulch. At the area's entrance, there is a switch-enabled mechanism consisting of two wooden platforms that can be rotated around a small outcrop in the river, forming a bridge between islands.

When the heroes first arrive at the Lazy River, they must use these platforms to bring a block onto a red pressure plate. Doing so unlocks a nearby opening which leads to a battlefield whereSherbet Supporters are introduced duringChapter 2-3.

Further on, there is a small ice-covered area where a frozenRabbid Mario must be brought to Toad. The heroes have to slide the ice cube containing Rabbid Mario down an icy maze; pushing the cube once causes it to slide all the way to the closest non-icy surface. At the end of the maze, the cube is passed to Toad, opening up the access to the next area. Another battlefield follows, past which there are two blocks that can be pushed away to open a path back to the start of this area.

Plateau Point[edit]

Plateau Point

The third starting point is inPlateau Point, a canyon area with mines and timber scaffolds. The area is also characterized by a mild but constant sandstorm. The scaffolds traverse a giantGobblegut-like fossil that sticks out of a wall and lead onto a plateau where the heroes briefly escape the sandstorm; the area continues with another scaffold that runs under a gigantic statue of a Tutanbwaaahmon and directly crosses over to a battlefield on another plateau. Past this point, the weather becomes stormy again and the heroes enter the Tomb of Tutanbwaaahmon.

Tomb of Tutanbwaaahmon[edit]

Tomb of Tutanbwaaahmon

The fourth starting point is located near theTomb of Tutanbwaaahmon. This area is composed of many stone structures that pertain to the tomb itself, common decorations in this area being Rabbid-motific paintings, jars and sarcophagi reminiscent of ancient Egyptian art. The heroes travel on sandy platforms layered on top of these structures and use pipes to move between them. A battlefield is also established at the tomb and is followed by a Cannon that launches the heroes to the next area, the Sherbet Mountain.

Sherbet Mountain Summit[edit]

Sherbet Mountain Summit

The fifth starting point is located on theSherbet Mountain Summit, an entirely frigid part of the Sherbet Desert. The heroes start out in an area withBloopers frozen within ice crystals, followed shortly by a battlefield. This area is succeeded by a long mountain pass, where the heroes encounter a number of puzzles and Cannons used to fly across chasms. A battlefield is also found midway through the pass. At the end, there is a large battlefield where theIcicle Golem is fought inChapter 2-BOSS.

• Certain parts of the music of Sherbet Desert have a nearly-identical melody to that of Jinjo Village inBanjo-Tooie. GivenGrant Kirkhope's involvement with the game, this is likely intentional.
