Puddle

Puddles are stage obstacles in Luigi Circuit in Mario Kart: Super Circuit and Mario Kart DS, and in Neo Bowser City in Mario Kart 7 (specifically in the course's final stretch before the Glide Ramp). Similar to Oil Slicks, they slow down any player that tries to move through it. The Mario Kart 7 Prima guide incorrectly states that touching a puddle spins out the player.

Despite Neo Bowser City returning as a retro course in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, puddles do not return as obstacles.
