Here, he meets Cappy for the first time on the Glasses Bridge of Bonneton, and decides to join together to rescue Princess Peach and Tiara (Cappy's little sister). As the name Cap Kingdom implies, hat-shaped buildings and reliefs are everywhere in this land of tradition and formality.Īt the start of the game, Mario lands directly in this location after being knocked off of Bowser's airship. Geographically, the kingdom is a top hat-shaped island covered in black vegetation, soil and ground.
The Cap Kingdom island is located west of the Cascade Kingdom and northeast of the Mushroom Kingdom. Bonneton is possibly the joining of 'Bonnet' (a type of headgear) and the city-name suffix '-ton'. This kingdom also serves as the tutorial stage of the game, and is the greater location of Bonneton. The resident Bonneters excel at ship-building and can even attach sails to their homes to convert them into airships. It is a gloomy, monochromatic kingdom filled with thick fog inhabited by hat-like beings called Bonneters, including Cappy and his sister, Tiara. The Cap Kingdom is the first kingdom visited in Super Mario Odyssey.
