Saturn Valley (EarthBound)

Saturn Valley (Japanese: サターンバレー Saturn Valley) is a place in EarthBound and Mother 3. The Mr. Saturn race live here, and is a major location in both games.

In EarthBound
When first visited in the game, it serves little purpose in advancing the game's plot, other than obtaining the password for Master Belch's hideout. However, near the end of the game, the Mr. Saturns, Dr. Andonuts and the Apple Kid collaborate to create the Phase Distorter, a vital machine to travel to the past and defeat Giygas. It is also where Ness and his friends part ways.

The music for Saturn Valley in this game seems to resemble that of the Ruins of Desert of.

Hotel
The hotel in Saturn Valley is completely free to stay at.

Hospital
Similar to the hotel, Dr. Saturn will heal Ness's entire party free of charge, and removes any status effects they may have.

In Mother 3
Saturn Valley in Mother 3 can be accessed from the Highway system during Chapter 7. When Lucas and company arrive, they find that the Mr. Saturns are under attack by the Pig Army, who are attempting to torture them with Frightbots in order to find the location of the next needle. It is here that Duster is rescued and rejoins Lucas's party.

After they are freed, the Mr. Saturns inform the heroes that there is a Magypsy living to the north in Fire Mountain, guarding a needle there. The Mr. Saturns also help them ascend by forming a ladder until Duster reaches a portion of the wall on which he can use Wall Staples. At this point, the Saturn-ladder collapses, though they put up a proper metal ladder afterwards.

After the defeat of New Fassad and the pulling of Phrygia's needle, the Pigmasks bomb the entrance to Saturn Valley, forcing Lucas and company to depart by a flying birdcage, hooked on by Rope Snake. However, Rope Snake's jaw eventually gives way, causing the party to land on the beach near Tazmily Village.
