- “Bleep! Jump on board to ride the exciting Saucer of Peril! Bleep!”
- —Saucer of Peril, Banjo-Tooie
The Saucer of Peril is a recurring object in the Banjo-Kazooie series.
Location and uses[edit]
Banjo-Tooie[edit]
In Banjo-Tooie, its first appearance, the Saucer of Peril is a sentient flying saucer, also having its own ride in the Space Zone of Witchyworld. It is initially found inside a crate on the Fuel Depot of Glitter Gulch Mine, where a boulder is blocking the tunnel. Detonator Banjo needs to destroy it, allowing the saucer to proceed and encounter a door that leads to the Witchyworld but needs to be opened from the other side.
Once the path is opened, the Saucer of Peril frees itself from the box and stays on his platform, stating it needs power to work. Once Mumbo Jumbo provides it with a spell, the Saucer of Peril allows Banjo and Kazooie to ride it. During its mini-game, Kazooie needs to shoot targets with Golden Eggs to score points and win the prizes. Red, green and blue targets are worth 1, 2 and 3 points respectively. Scoring 400 points awards the duo with a Cheato Page, while 500 points win a Jiggy.
During the end of the game, Captain Blubber can be seen riding the Saucer of Peril after having bought it with the 1,000 Doubloons he won at a quiz night hosted at Jolly's.
Banjo-Pilot[edit]
In Banjo-Pilot, the Saucer of Peril appears as an item that can be used during races. When activated, it flies and hits the racer in first place (similarly to the Spiny Shell from the Mario Kart series). The Saucer of Peril is stronger than regular Fire Eggs, and can be dodged with aileron rolls.
Nuts & Bolts[edit]
In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, the Saucer of Peril can be found crashed next to the Uptown district of Showdown Town, where Captain Blubber explains to have landed.
In Act 2 of the Terrarium of Terror, Boggy hosts a challenge called "The Saucer of Peril Returns" where Banjo rides the L.O.G. Saucer of Peril and shoots targets around the Game World, similarly to the original mini-game in Banjo-Tooie.
In the description of the Humba U.F.O., Humba Wumba states that the vehicle will allow Banjo to "relive" the Saucer of Peril ride.
Other appearances[edit]
In Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise, the Saucer of Peril can be placed on the garden. It's base value is 800 chocolate coins.
Flavor text[edit]
Banjo-Pilot[edit]
- Manual profile: "Takes down the race leader!"
Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise[edit]
- Item description: "You have not seen this vehicle. It is absolutely not from outer space. There are no other life forms in the universe. You have not seen me, go about your business."
