Locandra Dimension is the fourth level of Magolor Epilogue: The Interdimensional Traveler in Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, proceeding Poseiblu Dimension and preceding Ethereal Altar. It consists of five stages, three Ordeal Doors, and an extra stage.

General Information[]

Locandra Dimension takes inspiration from Nutty Noon's cool color motif with purple skies and terrain. Towering ruined structures and random gears with mysterious purple ooze on them can be seen in the background and foreground.

Magolor can access this fourth area by using a Black Hole on some Black Hole- Blocks above the stages of Poseiblu Dimension. These special blocks become fairly rare in the remaining stages of this level. The stages in Locandra Dimension are packed with enemies and is an accumulation of all the skills Magolor has relearned and upgraded in his journey thus far.

Stages[]

Stage 4-1[]

This stage consists of two areas. The first area consists of a lot of breakable blocks and falling mechanical hammers. A Depper makes its first appearance here which splits into four projectiles when defeated as in the main game. The second area has Magolor climb to the top of four rooms to retrieve a key to open a gate leading to the next room. The fourth room has a respawning Special Skill Flask where Magolor can pick it up to use Black Hole to retrieve the key above him. The final room is an enemy gauntlet. 1150 magic points are required to achieve a platinum medal and the first time clear bonus is 800.

Stage 4-2[]

This stage also consists of two areas with walls and ceilings. In the first area, chunks of land will rapidly emerge from the floor and ceiling as Magolor advances. One puzzle requires Magolor to hit a pink switch at the top of a hill and enter a pocket of magic points before the switch deactivates and the gate to the pocket closes. The final section will lure Magolor to a bottom platform to destroy some bomb blocks only for two walls to rise from the ground with an enemy barrage.

The second area will have giant structured pieces of land that will move toward the left as Magolor advances to the right. The enemy gauntlet will have multiple pieces of land move toward the right as the camera is fixed forcing Magolor to make his away through the moving land as he fights the enemies on them. A final chunk of land will rest on the main platform serving as the new battle terrain. 1200 magic points are required to achieve the platinum goal and the first time clear bonus is 750.

Stage 4-3[]

This stage is a Mid-Boss Tower reminiscent of Stage 5 of Nutty Noon. Magolor can enter the at the base of the tower or through a hidden window by levitating above the base door. The secret route will mirror the layout of the original path, however each magic point is replaced with one of a higher value. The mid-bosses and number of mid-bosses Magolor has to fight also changes. At the end of the tower is a gauntlet against a few enemies and one or two mid-bosses depending on the route where Magolor must also protect a Magic Bulb. The layout of the gauntlet room also changes depending on the route.

Boss Room Normal Route Secret Route
1 Moundo Dubior EX
2 Gigant Edge King Doo EX

3 Bonkers Water Galboros EX

4 Kibble Blade Bonkers EX

The second break section requires Magolor to upgrade Upward Revolution Orb to Level 4 so he can use Upward Revolution Flame to destroy the ice blocks so that Magolor can use the cannon to get to a food item. 850 magic points are required to achieve the platinum goal and the first time clear bonus is 600.

Stage 4-4[]

This stage consists of four areas: the first, second, and third areas are reversed maps of Stages 5, 3, and 1 of Egg Engines respectively. A dimension wall closes in from the right. The fourth area is dedicated to an enemy gauntlet which ends in a mid-boss battle with Dubior. 1250 magic points are required to achieve the platinum goal and the first time clear bonus is 850.

Stage 4-BOSS[]

KRtDLDX Maxim Tomato Main article: Rampaging Doomers

The boss of Locandra Dimension are the Rampaging Doomers who are a corrupted version of a group of Sphere Doomers. When these Doomers are defeated, they will drop a Fruit Fragment which will increase the max number of boosts for all of Magolor's Magical Skills. 1850 magic points are required to achieve the platinum goal and the first time clear bonus is 1000.

Extra Stage[]

This stage is only unlocked when Magolor has earned a gold or platinum medal in every stage. It is an 11-room long gauntlet featuring revamped dimensional rift stages found in the main game. Dimensional Vanish is required to bypass the transparent purple blocks and Magolor Cannon is recommended to clear long hallways. In order, these stages are:

At the end of a gauntlet is a free falling section that ends with a bunch of Star Blocks spelling out Magolor's name. A Special Skill Flask is generously placed on the "L" for Magolor to use Magolor Cannon and earn an easy 86 count combo. 4500 magic points are required to achieve the platinum goal and the first time clear bonus is 2000.

Ordeal Doors[]

The Trickery Ordeal Door is located on the very left of the area; it is accessed by levitating above a thin path. The rest of the Ordeal Doors are out in the open. The first time clear bonuses for each Ordeal Door is 400 magic points.

Magolor Cannon[]

Opens when Magolor Cannon is at Level 2. This ordeal has a large rising platform that will crush Magolor as he advances upwards. Magolor must grab the Special Skill Flasks to replenish his Magic Energy so that he can use Magolor Cannon to hit far away switches so he can tread upward and destroy many blocks at once to clear long hallways.

Black Hole[]

Opens when Black Hole is at Level 2. This ordeal sections Magolor into rooms where the floor begins to rise. Magolor must collect the Special Skill Flasks and use multiple Black Holes to destroy the Black Hole Blocks to make a hole for him to escape in before the floor reaches the ceiling.

Trickery[]

Opens when Trickery is at Level 6. This ordeal is a combination of every skill Magolor has learned. It is recommended that Levitation is at Level 3 or above to clear this challenge as the entire floor is coated with spikes. At the end of the challenge, a series of cannons will launch Magolor through a long hallway. For every mini challenge Magolor completes and activates the various switches and/or destroy the bomb blocks, a Key Dee holding a rainbow magic point will be available for Magolor to ram into when using the cannons.

Trivia[]

  • The music for the first three stages is titled "Onward To a Pain My Heart Knows Well" which is a medley of various leitmotifs from the game, including "Judgement of the Malus Pumila", "Sky Tower", and "Magolor, the Far-Flung Traveler".
    • The music that plays during the first five rooms of the Extra Stage is "Interdimensional Traveler," and the music that plays during the other five rooms is "Drum Dash Deluxe: C-R-O-W-N-E-D," reused straight from their respective stages in their respective games. The final area reuses "Magolor, the Far-Flung Traveler."
  • The Extra Stage room based on Dangerous Dinner Stage 3's dimensional rift room notably removes all the water that was in the original, replacing it with platforms instead.
