Line 7:
The game also features several minigames, which have [[The Cameo|cameo appearances]] of characters from previous Kirby titles.
 
The central plot revolves around [[Skull for Aa Head|Necrodeus]], the [[Big Bad]] of the game who splits Kirby into 10 smaller Kirbies while the original Kirby is sleeping. Necrodeus manages to kill all the Kirbies save one that escaped alive. The lone Kirby then goes off on an adventure to save Dreamland and fight Necrodeus to reunite himself once more. In the meantime, Kirby is joined by the returning Squeak Squad, and Daroach, their leader, helps Kirby by giving him hints and general tips along the way.
 
The game was released in America on September 19th, 2011, in Japan on August 4th, 2011 and in Europe on October 28th, 2011.
Line 24:
** The shoot'em up minigame has more of these enemies including meteoroids.
* [[Awesome McCoolname]]/[[Meaningful Name]]: Necrodeus literally means "Death God".
* [[Back From the Dead]]: Kirby can [[Ascend to Aa Higher Plane of Existence|save some of his clones from dying]] if he can grab them quickly enough. {{spoiler|Also there's a [[Boss Rush]] at the end of the fourth world that has several resurrected bosses, and the final world which has the four world bosses back for another battle. [[Fridge Brilliance|All of this makes perfect sense considering that the main enemy Necrodeus is a Death God.]]}}
* [[Badass Adorable]]: Kirby, especially now that he has ten [[Fun Size]] versions of himself to save the day. It's practically cuteness overload!
* [[Big Eater]]: Kirby, of course. It's actually mandatory to eat a lot of fruit to gain more Kirby clones.
Line 32:
* [[But Thou Must!]]: Daroach asks you if you'll collect the medals for him. If you say no, he simply comments on your sense of humor and reiterates his "request".
* [[The Cameo]]: In addition to the below mentioned Canon Immigrants, some characters not normally appearing in this game appear in sub-games, such as typical Kirby enemies, [[Early-Bird Cameo|HR-D3]] (which ended up as a proper Kirby platformer boss in ''[[Kirbys Return to Dream Land]]''), Meta Knight, Nightmare, and none other than Dark Matter, in his first appearance outside his trilogy of games (i.e. ''Dream Land 2'', ''Dream Land 3'', and ''[[Kirby 64 The Crystal Shards]]'').
** Dynablade makes an appearance as a special move in Kirby Quest, as does a colored-in Kirby Tank from [[KirbysKirby's Epic Yarn]].
* [[Canon Immigrant]]: A few characters from the ''[[Kirby of the Stars]]'' anime such as Escargo(o)n and Customer Service make cameos in the game.
* [[Chain -Reaction Destruction]]: Bosses, minibosses, larger enemies and some other objects are destroyed like so.
* [[Circling Birdies]]: This happens when Kirby is stunned.
* [[Clown Car Grave]]: As to be expected of some of the [[Big Boo's Haunt]] levels.
Line 43:
* [[Determinator]]:
** After losing in a fight to the [[Big Bad]], Kirby ''still'' goes off to fight him once again.
** When a Kirby takes a hit, he turns blue. When he takes another hit, the Kirby dies and [[Ascend to Aa Higher Plane of Existence|floats up to heaven]]... At least, [[Normally I Would Be Dead Now|he would]], if it weren't for another alive Kirby being able to launch himself towards the dead Kirby's soul, drag him down, [[Back From the Dead|and bring him back to life]].
* [[Divide and Conquer]]: Necrodeus utilizes a rather unique version of this in the intro: he splits up Kirby into ten clones, with each having only a small part of the complete Kirby's power. Without his special abilities, Kirby was helpless against Necrodeus, allowing the skull-faced fiend to destroy the Kirbys one by one. Necrodeus would have won then and there, if one Kirby hadn't escaped.
* [[The Dragon]]: Skullord, he's a greedy pig who Necrodeus granted some of his powers to. He rules over some of the Skullys.
Line 53:
* [[Expy]]:
** Necrodeus looks a ''lot'' like Nightmare from ''Kirby's Adventure''.
** World 2 has enemies which resemble Thwomps from the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' series.
** Big Birdee is very similar to [[Kirby Super Star|Dyna Blade]]. {{spoiler|With babies that need to be helped and [[Heel Face Turn]] as well.}}
* [[Fat Bastard]]: King Dedede.
Line 97:
* [[Sequential Boss]]: King Dedede and Necrodeus.
* [[Shifting Sand Land]]: The second world has a few levels taking place in the desert environment.
* [[Shout-Out]]: The sub-game Strato Patrol EOS plays a lot like a typical [[Cute'Em Up]], mostly ''[[Twinbee (Video Game)|Twinbee]]''.
* [[Shows Damage]]: Some of the stronger enemies, bosses, and blocks show damage. Some show cracks, and some change color palette when damaged.
* [[Soundtrack Dissonance]]: Stage 10 of Sandy Canyon has the Kirbys having to pass through by removing the plug in the sand. For the rest of the level, they have to outrun the rising sand. The first room has typical desert music, but you'd think that the larger areas after it, since they require outrunning sand they could sink in to their death, you'd think it would have intense music, right? Nope -- the music for the rest of the level is "Night Desert," a calm and peaceful song that plays in calmer desert areas, except for this exception to the "calmer desert areas" rule.
Line 110:
* [[Unexpected Shmup Level]]: Other than the subgame, 4-10's second half, kind of.
* [[Vile Villain Saccharine Show]]: In ''Kirby'' tradition, Necrodeus fills this role.
* [[Weakened Byby the Light]]: One of the shadowy monsters turns into a scared skull when exposed to the light.
* [[Wingding Eyes]]: The boxart for the game shows Kirby with blue star-shaped highlights in his eyes.
* [[Yellow Lightning, Blue Lightning]]: Lightning and electricity in this game is yellow.
