Moodymaze Marsh is the third world in Yooka-Laylee. It is mostly a water-themed world that consists of bridges, green fog, and small islands. The world has a large maze as its primary structure.
Expanding the world will unlock several more islands for the duo to explore.
Trapped Pagie: Near Trowzer there is a Pagie in a trap. Buddy Slam the switch, and jump over to it without touching the water.
Underwater Pagie: There is an underwater timed mission where the player must race towards a Pagie in a Cagie within a small amount of time. Located in the pond near the entrance to the world.
Complete Ollie the Trolley's maze mission: Talk to Ollie, and complete his maze mission. Located behind Trowzer.
Remove a fungus from Wally the Trolley's garden: Use the Sonar 'Splosion ability to take out multiple mushrooms at once. Located behind Trowzer.
Solve the Pumping Plant puzzle: Use the switches to guide the block through the puzzle. Located in the second area of the world, just out of the pond for the underwater timed Pagie.
Complete Jolly the Trolley's switch mission: Hit various switches within a time limit to earn a Pagie. Located directly after the floating logs. Needs Lizard Lash to begin.
Swampy Station: Enter via pipe (the one that doesn't have bubbles coming out of it) in same pond near Dr. Puzz. The player will need Reptile Rush.
Travel through the Murky Passage: Enter via pipe (the one that has bubbles coming out of it) in same pond near Dr. Puzz.
Barbed Vines: While in the Piranha Form, there will be a patch of barbed vines underwater. The duo can then collect the Pagie by swimming through the vines.
Rescue Dolly the Trolley: While in the Piranha Form, enter the Dusky Duct (small pipe with thorns in front of it). Navigate to the end to find Dolly the Trolley being crushed by bones. Free him to earn a Pagie.
Hanging Pagie: Use the Sonar 'Splosion ability on a nearby ice cube to access Scorchberries. Breathe fire into the furnace pipeline to free the Pagie. Located to the left immediately after crossing the floating logs.
Cage Match: A platform near the Moodymaze Bunker can be found with a hoard of Marsh Corplets on top of it. When the duo land on it, a cage will fall and Yooka and Laylee will be trapped until they defeat all of the Corplets. Sonar 'Splosion is recommended.
Lizard Lash, fire platform challenge: Around the lake that has an island in the middle, a small dock leading to a Lizard Lash hotspot can be found. Follow the platforms to come to a fire that the player can use Slurp State on. Back track a bit to find a switch that unlocks the Pagie in a Cagie.
Complete the timed platforming challenge: In one corner of the lake, there will be a ramp platform that sinks when rolled on. Go into the pipe and Buddy Slam the switch to start a platforming challenge, jumping through hoops and around air vents across many of the same sinking platforms until the duo reach the Pagie in a Cagie.
Get Clara's gem for her: Outside of a big pipe at the lake, the player will find Clara. She will have Yooka and Laylee collect a gem for her inside. The duo will go in and use Sonar 'Splosion to clear the fog and break ice cubes in their way, until the ice cube with gem is visible. It can be broken like the others, and the gem can now be returned to Clara.
Complete the Hoop challenge: Around the lake, you will see a platform that has a pumpkin on it. He will want the duo to complete the Lizard Lash hoop challenge to unlock the Pagie in a Cagie. While you can reach the Pagie by flying, Lizard Lash is required to start the challenge.
Hotswitch Hollow: There is a pipe in the lake that serves as the entrance to the Hotswitch Hollow. Inside, the duo will need to complete 4 rooms where they must step on all the switches quick enough so that none of them deactivate.
