The image used for The Canyons world icon.

The Canyons is the fourth area in LittleBigPlanet based on the Aztec Empire and the Mexico in the 19th century.

Level Descriptions

Here you help Uncle Jalapeno, the Creator Curator of The Canyons, and defeat the evil Sheriff Zapata.

Story & Theme
The background is a Mexican canyon or desert with animal skulls and cacti littered around.

Upon arriving at The Canyons, Devante asks you for help to free Uncle Jalapeno from the evil Sheriff Zapata. Upon freeing Uncle Jalapeno, Sheriff Zapata retreats to the mines, so Sackboy and Uncle Jalapeno chase him until you find him at the Serpent's Shrine, a showdown occurs causing Zapata's death. Uncle Jalapeno, exhausted about the whole ordeal, decides to have a vacation in The Metropolis.

This theme reappears in LittleBigPlanet Karting and Run Sackboy! Run!. In LittleBigPlanet Karting, Sackboy is tested for his endurance amidst the dangerous tracks of the Canyons.

Creator Curator: Uncle Jalapeno

Notes[]

  • The Canyons and the Wedding are the only two themes in the original game to be set in the same country, Mexico. The Gardens would have shared England with the cut Seaside theme if the latter was included in the final release of LittleBigPlanet.
  • The entire town seems to enjoy explosives, seeing as even the buildings are made of them.
