The Cake Thief's Parting Gift

The Cake Thief's Parting Gift is the first story mission of the Snow Kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey. The goal is to open the four barriers blocking the entrance to the Snowline Circuit.

Layout
The mission begins at the Odyssey in a snow storm, where Mario must go down to some thick snow and discover a hole. He will then drop down into Shiveria Town. At the end of the room, are four barriers with the symbol of Bowser on them; as well as four corridors with a room at the end of each one. Mario must collect the Power Moon to remove the barriers granting access to Snowline Circuit. The first sequence entitled Icicle Cavern has an icy path with Goombas and falling icicles. Some parts of the path are thin, which only Goombas are safe to cross with. A large icicle at the end must be dropped using four icicles to brake it free. The second sequence known as Hollow Crevasse contains a thin-layered snow path with Bitefrosts coming up from the ground. Mario must collect the five Moon Shards to collect the Power Moon. The third sequence, Wind-Chill Cavern, has a narrow snowy path, poison water with Ty-foos and Spinies. The Ty-foos can be captured to move blocks around. The fourth sequence, Snowy Mountain, has thick snow with a small mountain on which Mario must defeat Rango to receive the Moon.
