Drablands Challenges are special challenges added onto regular Levels, making them significantly more difficult. They become available in a given Area once the Boss of that Area is defeated. With the exception of the Den of Trials, each Area features 12 Drablands Challenges; three for each Level, each with varying goals and difficulty. Drablands Challenges can range anywhere from decreasing the Links' Heart Containers, requiring that they clear a Level within a certain time limit, or even neglecting to provide them with items intended to solve certain puzzles, sometimes in favor of different items. In addition to simply providing the Links with new goals, Enemies that do not normally appear in the Levels may become present during these Challenges. The Material rewards that the Links can normally earn at the end of a Level differ with each Drablands Challenge.[1]
Completion List
The completed Drablands Challenge Completion List
The Drablands Challenge Completion List is a bulletin board that appears in every lobby of Hytopia Castle, with the exception of the Coliseum (Mode) lobby. It lists Link's progress in completing the Levels and their Drablands Challenges. For each Level or Challenge that Link completes, either over Multiplayer or with Doppels, a Triforce-shaped marker will be added to the Completion List to signify its completion. If, however, Link skips any Stages in a Level during single-player, then the Level will not be marked on the list after completing it even though it will still be marked in the Level Selection screen. Including the ordinary Levels and all of their Drablands Challenges, there are 128 markers to be filled.
While reading the Completion List, Link can also check his completion records cleared only through Multiplayer or only with Doppels by pressing either of two tabs on the bottom screen to show these individual records. Including both boards, there are a total of 256 Challenges to clear, however each Challenge is identical between both modes.
After Link completes all Drablands Challenges of an Area, King Tuft will reward him with a unique, gold-quality Material that can only otherwise be obtained through the Coliseum (Mode) (eg. clearing all WoodlandsLevels will award him the Supple Leaf). After Link clears all 128 Challenges on the Completion List, the King will reward him with a Gold Rupee worth 300 Rupees.

Description
Levels
Fewer Heart Containers!
The Link enter the Level with their amount of Heart Containers reduced to four.
The Link are given a limited amount of time to clear the Level. Hourglasses of varying sizes can be picked up to increase the remaining time: small Hourglasses restore five seconds, and big Hourglasses restore 20. If time runs out, the Link will receive an immediate Game Over. The initial time limit given is the same whether playing with other Links or with Doppels.
If the Link lose all of their Hearts and are KOed, they will reappear at the beginning of the Stage with the same amount of time they had when they fell. All Hourglasses in the Stage will reappear as well.
If Linebeck's Uniform is worn, an additional ten seconds is added to the initial time limit for every Link wearing it.
The Link must transport a glowing Orb that lights a circular area around it. This Orb will protect the Link from a red shade covering the Level, which will harm the Link should they step outside the Orb's radius for more than several seconds. At the beginning of each Stage, the Orb rests on a pedestal, and at the end, it must be thrown into another. The Triforce Gateway will not activate until the Orb is placed into the latter pedestal. If the Orb falls down a pit or into water, it will reappear nearby.
A number of red balloons appear in each of the Level's four Stages, including any BossStages. These balloons must all be popped in order to advance to the next Stage. Some of the balloons float at higher elevations, and require the Link to form a Totem to reach.
The Link must defeat all Enemies without the ability to use their Swords, and instead must rely on other items provided in the Level. All Enemies in a Stage must be defeated in order to activate the Triforce Gateway to the next Stage.
Similar to the "Guard the Orb!" challenge, except there is no damaging red light. The Link must transport an Orb through the Level within a certain amount of time. Varying Hourglasses can be picked up to increase the remaining time; small Hourglasses restore five seconds, and big Hourglasses restore 20. If time runs out, the Link will receive an immediate Game Over. At the beginning of each Stage, the Orb rests on a pedestal, and at the end, it must be thrown into another. The Triforce Gateway will not activate until the Orb is placed into the latter pedestal. If the Orb falls down a pit or into water, it will reappear nearby.
If the Link lose all of their Hearts and are KOed, they will reappear at the beginning of the Stage with the same amount of time they had when they fell. All Hourglasses in the Stage will reappear as well.
If Linebeck's Uniform is worn, an additional ten seconds is added to the initial time limit for every Link wearing it.
A Wallmaster will continuously follow the Link throughout the entire Level and must be avoided. If it slams onto one of the Link, it will instantly KO them. It can be defeated, but will soon respawn.
The Link have their attack power and defense halved, making their attacks do half damage and causing them to take double damage from Enemies. The amount of damage from falling into pits or Quicksand in unchanged.
A number of red balloons appear in each of the Level's four Stages, including any BossStages. If any of these balloons are popped, it results in instant KO. The balloons can also be popped by certain Enemy attacks.
The Link are unable to use their Swords, and instead must rely on the Level's items to attack and solve puzzles. The challenge is similar to the "Defeat all foes sans sword" challenge, except not all Enemies have to be defeated to proceed.
The Link are provided with a large Pot which must be safely transported through the entire Level. The Pot rests on a pedestal as the Level begins, and once it's picked up, it cannot be set back down. In order to solve puzzles and fight certain Enemies, the Pot will have to be passed between the Link . At the very end of the Level is a pedestal that the Pot must be dropped into to activate the Triforce Gateway.
During the Nintendo Treehouse Live event at E3 2015, the Drablands Challenges were known as Challenge Courses.[2]
Although the cancel button used to forego playing a Drablands Challenge simply reads "No", its internal text description is "Do that hero thing you do!".[citation needed]
The rim of the pedestal on which Link must place the Orb or Pot resembles King Tuft's collar and hair curls.
