Princess Peach: Showtime! – How to Solve Detective Peach’s Second Case

Princess Peach’s latest game, Showtime!, offers her the opportunity to break free from the damsel role and take on the role of a world-saving hero in the Mushroom Kingdom. Although the game is primarily targeted towards younger audiences, there are still a few aspects that may spark curiosity, and we are here to provide answers.

Even though Princess Peach: Showtime! is mostly straightforward, the game’s Detective Peach levels are designed as classic adventure game mysteries. These sections may be challenging for younger players and may even require the assistance of their parents when they get stuck. To provide some support, we have prepared a guide on how to complete the second Detective Peach stage, titled “The Case of the Rainy-Day Plot” …

To begin, you will need to locate a member of the Sour Bunch Gang. Once he turns around, conceal yourself in the shadows behind one of the objects on the street, being aware that the sandwich boards may shift.

After following him for a while, the Sour Bunch goon will suddenly vanish. Where does the trail lead to now? Examine the puddle on the ground and then search through the junk in the nearby alley (press B while in front of an item and hold B again for a “Strike of Intuition”that will reveal it as a crucial point of interest, but be careful – accusing without evidence will result in losing life).

As a result, you will need to track our goon once again. You can either ask for clues or continue reading – the correct door to enter is the middle one with a single leaf above it.

First, you must determine the specific location within this room that the Sour Bunch Gang is targeting. Examine the Clock Tower model.

Alright, next up is the clock tower itself! To activate the elevator, you will require the correct key. The one that is partially hanging and resembles a “9”is the key you are looking for (even though it is actually a 6 flipped upside down).

On the next floor, you will need to locate three pieces of a gear. The first piece can be found on the left side of the room.

The middle of the room is where the next item is located.

The final one is concealed within this cardboard box bearing a handprint.

The final floor is ahead! In order to restart the elevator, a key is required. Can you locate it? Place the lighter gear from the back wall onto the right spoke. This action will unlock a new path. Proceed through and you will reach the minute-hand of the clock tower. The key can be found here. Retrieve it and utilize it to resume elevator operations.

Simply engage with the large bell to conclude this mystery in a captivating manner!
