Where are the Planet Coins at Barrendale Mesa? You may ask… I’ll show you their locations one by one.
All the Planet Coins are rewards for a Quest, so let’s say, just do all the Side Quests you can find and you will get all the Planet Coins! See all Side Quests and how to complete them listed below!
After you’ve collected all the Planet Coins, you will get a Gold Prism as reward. Use this Gold Prism to unlock the Spark branch for any Hero’s Skill Tree.

A “FOWL” ATTRACTION
This is the Quest with the locked pipe. You’ll need all the available Sparks (30 Sparks) to do this.
The access point to this golden pipe is where you did the long bridge puzzle in the Story Quest to drop the ladder of the crane.
You can scan for a bridge across to the golden pipe.
Defeat the Giant Magnafowl.
A LOST ART
In the south east of the Barrendale Mesa Map is a statue with a missing head next to a clogged white pipe. You need to find the head.
Next to the quest giver is a big purple tile on the floor that you can use to stabilise the bridge. Do so and cross it.
Just after you’ve crossed, notice the rock with the yellow whirl on it. When you scan ist, it will point to the left. Scan this area to the left and you will discover a ladder.
Ignore the blue pyramid key for now and climb up the other ladder.
Next to the quest giver is a big purple tile on the floor that you can use to stabilise the bridge. Do so and cross it.
At the top of this ladder you can scan for a yellow bridge across. Cross this bridge and slide down.
Here you can drop a ladder and also destroy a big block with your WAVE ability (ZR). Destroy this block.
The item on the other side is just a distraction. You can actually scan for another yellow bridge and cross it.
On the other side is a bridge stabiliser tile on the floor. Use it.
Now you can go and pick up that pyramid key. Carry it over the nearby stable and purple bridge to put it inside the device. The pipe is now open.
Next to the now open pipe is the statue’s head. Pick it up, slide down the pipe and put it on the statue’s shoulders.
The Planet Coin container appears and you are one coin richer.
BARREN GATEWAY
Madame Bwhastrella has another Dimensional Drift for you. Defeat it and you get this Planet Coin.
BE A DEPLETER DEFEATER
In the west of the Barrendale Mesa Map is a lonely Defeater guarding a round treasure box with the Speedway Kaboomer Weapon Skin in it.
BLUE COIN CHALLENGE
South of the crane is the usual blue pipe. Slide it down and do the challenge. It’s all about building bridges with the ZR ability stabiliser. There is also a Techno Crab as reward with the GALACTIC ATLAS: BARRENDALE MESA as reward.
BUILD BRIDGES
South west of the Barrendale Mesa Map are a couple of barriers that need to be taken down to get a Planet Coin and here’s how to do it.
Take the pipe up. At the other end, jump down onto the purple bridge. Turn right and jump down on the ground floor. You’re now at the other side the of the Darkmess Barrier.
There is one WAVE block that you can use as an “elevator”. Send it down with your ZR purple WAVE ability and push the nearby box on top of it. Send the “elevator” WAVE block with the box on it back up!
Next, we have to drop the barrier. Walk underneath the big purple bridge. On the other side you’ll find the yellow cube key for the Barrier Device. Carry it to the device and place it inside.
Next to the barrier device is a big purple tile on the floor. It’s a bridge stabiliser. Use your ZR ability on it.
Then, go through where the barrier was and use the white pipe again. Jump down! You will fall through the first bridge onto the one below.
Cross the bridge and use the bridge stabiliser on the other side. Now you can push the box over to the blue pressure plate.
Use the bridge stabiliser again and cross over to where you can jump down on the ground floor.
At ground floor, use again the stabiliser. Then, go up the white pipe, jump down onto the bridge and go get the Planet Coin!
CANNON FRONT
To get to this area, you have to complete the TORTURED ARTIST Spark Quest.
Cross the bridge, dash and pick up the egg. Then, on the same ground level, go over to the Eye, as close as possible and throw the Egg. The Eye should be highlighted. Then you know it will work.
Now the ramp is free from Darkmess and you can go down. Move the WAVE block to the left with your purple ZR ability so you can access the white pipe above.
You can now climb up the ladder and use the pipe to the other side.
Here you can jump down to a movable box and a ladder you can drop down. Do so and climb down the ladder.
Next, we’re going to move this box onto the WAVE block. Move the WAVE block on ground floor to the right, go up the ladder to push the box onto the WAVE block. Go down again and move it, now with the box on top, to the left.
Pull the box along the yellow strip all the way to the other side.
Lower another WAVE block to push it onto the yellow pressure plate.
The barrier to the device is now dropped. We now need a blue pyramid key for it. Lower the WAVE block below the pyramid barrier. The Pyramid key is behind it. Raise the other WAVE block (the first one we lowered to pull the box to the pressure plate) so you can get to the device. Carry the pyramid and drop it onto the WAVE block close to the pressure plate. Then send it back up. Make sure you’re standing on the same side as the pressure plate.
Now you can go up the ladder, pick up the Pyramid and put it into the device to lower the barrier.
Go down and raise the WAVE block near the barrier, where the Pyramid was. Otherwise you will realise, like me below, you can’t get the Planet Coin, after you’re scanned for the bridge!
Open the propeller container near the cannon to get the Planet Coin.
COURAGEOUS DUO
North east of the crane is another Darkmess Puddle. It’s a special one, since you’re only allowed to fight with Mario and Edge.
As reward you’ll get the Steampunk Dual Slinger Weapon Skin and the Mario memory
DARKMESS, UNCONTAINED
Get rid of the Darkmess Puddle south of the crane. You can only reach this puddle when you move the container blocking this passage away with the crane.
DESERT HIGHWAY DARKMESS
Free the Highway in the centre from the Darkmess Puddle!
GATE TO THE ABANDONED SETTLEMENT
Free the Gate to the Abandoned Settlement from the Darkmess Puddle!
GENERATOR INVESTIGATOR
South of the Windmill is a green pressure plate, a green line where you normally could push or pull a box – but no box!
Go to the end of the green line and use your scanner (ZL). A box appears…
Push the box over the edge, onto the pressure plate. The nearby barrier opens. Behind it is a battery.
Enter the nearby white pipe with the battery in your hands and put it into the device at the other end (see second screenshot).
GREEN COIN CHALLENGE
Take the white pipe up from down below to be able to start this Green Coin Challenge.
LAUNCH SITE SECRETS
North east of the Barrendale Mesa Map is an area with a Darkmess Eye…
Climb up the ladder and enter the cannon to start.
First of all not essential for this quest but still useful: drop the ladder for easier access.
Then, scan the area! There are footsteps leading to a hidden ladder down. Climb down this ladder.
Use your WAVE ability (ZR) on the lowered WAVE block so it’s up and you have a bridge across to the yellow cube key.
Pick it up and drop it on the WAVE block.
Go back down, lower the WAVE block, pick up the cube and put it inside the nearby device. This will drop the barrier to the only spot where you can throw the egg at the Darkmess Eye. Now go back up but make sure you raise the WAVE block again so you can cross over on top.
Move this WAVE block too, so you can use it as bridge. Then, go up to the Darkmess Egg by climbing the ladder up. Dash and pick up the Egg.
With the egg, slide down the nearby ramp and go up where the barrier was. From here you can throw the egg onto the Darkmess Eye.
Don’t forget to pick up the Planet Coin in the propeller container.
MAGIKOOPA HUNT
Just north of the garage is a Rabbid who needs help hunting and defeating 3 Magikoopa’s.
They are the ones that look like magicians and you can find them all over the Barrendale Mesa Map.
If you are struggling to find all 3 of them, travelling off planet or to another map and come back resets them.
RED COIN CHALLENGE
The Red Coin Challenge is just behind the Gate to the Abandoned Settlement in the east of the Barrendale Mesa map.
For this challenge, you have to take the cannon right after you’ve gone through the red ring and then run around the settlement. The last two rings are behind the white pipe.
SPELLRAISER HUNT
In the centre south of the crane map, there is a Rabbid who wants you to hunt down three Spellraisers.
The Spellraisers are those floating Rabbids with the purple hair.
STUCK AT WORK
There is a Planet Coin inside the container that the crane moves. Use the crane controls to rotate the crane to the left.
Now you can Fast Travel to the BARRENDALE WINDMILL FLAG and go down with the green pipes. Use your ZR ability to open the container where the crack is at the back.
THE BRAWN AND THE BRAIN
The Brawn and the Brain is a Darkmess Puddle right next to the Secret Zone Door. Get rid of it!
This is a survival fight with Bowser and Luigi over 6 rounds.
You’ll get the Steampunk Bowzooka and the Bowser Memory.
THE RIDDLE OF BARRENDALE MESA
South of the crane is the Riddle of Barrendale Mesa:
This is how you need to rotate:

TOADETTE TROUBLE
Toadette is stuck inside a Darkmess Puddle. The access point is where the Side Quest A LOST ART is. Do this one first and you know how to get to Toadette. Fight the Darkmess to get the Planet Coin.
VICTOR’S BARRENDALE MESA INVITATIONAL
Here we go again. Catch the fish like you did before and you get a Planet Coin!
WORKSITE HAZARD
Clean the Darkmess Puddle north of the crane.
