Kirby and the Amazing Mirror

Here is everything you would want to know before starting your game and then some. I would HIGHLY recommend reading this if you have never played any Kirby games, and if this is your first time playing this game, I would still read it. If you are very familiar with the game, skip this section.

a. Story

The peaceful world of Dream Land is in great danger. In Dream Land, dreams had always flowed out from the wonderful Fountain of Dreams, which collected the hopes and dreams of all living things. It also provided all the good dreams and rest that come from deep sleep. But one day, everyone in Dream Land lost the ability to dream! Apparently, King DeDeDe had been bathing in the Fountain of Dreams! Not only that, but DeDeDe had taken the Star Rod - the source of power of the Fountain of Dreams - and broken it into pieces, giving one to each of his underlings. Now, Kirby must embark on an adventure to restore peaceful naptimes to all the residents of Dream Land...

b. Controls

Do I really need to explain this? When you push the button, stuff happens. Here's a basic list of what happens when you push buttons.

• Control Pad (+): Moves Kirby left and right (< and >), duck (v), and fly (^).
• Tap Control Pad: Makes Kirby run left or right.
• Start: Pauses game, goes to pause menu.
• Select: Releases current copy ability, switches between pause menus.
• A: Makes Kirby jump and fly, confirms menu selections.
• B: Uses your current copy ability, inhales, exhales, cancels menu selections.
• L: Uses the cell phone to call a Warp Star to bring you back to the Hub.
• R: Uses the cell phone to call the other Kirbys to assist you.
• v and B: Slides (breaks Star Blocks and does damage).
