}} Death Desert is a region in Mother 3, accessible only in Chapter 3. Salsa is first seen here where he is witnessing his girlfriend being captured by the Pigmask Army and forced to do Fassad's bidding.

Overview

The desert is not very large compared to other locations. The starting point is in the northernmost part of the desert near the oasis. Wan Sum Dung is located here, who upon being given dung will give EXP points to Salsa. From there there is a path leading south to another open area with several branching paths. One of the paths will lead up north to the northern section of the desert with a white dome, being the entrance to the Candrum Underpass.

History

The chapter begins with Fassad kicking Salsa out of the Mother Porkship. Salsa is forced to follow his commands and do tricks to add to their guise as a performance duo in return for his girlfriend, Samba's safety. Using the Punishizer to reinforce his dominance over Salsa, Fassad escorts him through the desert. At the ends of the desert, the two find the entrance to the Candrum Underpass, guarded by the Cactus Wolf. After defeating the Cactus Wolf, the two enter the Candrum Underpass, rendering the desert inaccessable for the remainder of the game.
