Kirby's Dream Course is a mini-golf game featuring the pink blob Kirby. After his adventures in Dream Land, Kirby becomes the ball, and you must guide him around each hole using the sort of bar system that you see in most golf games. You need to eliminate all on-screen enemies before you can guide Kirby into the hole and complete it. As usual in golf games, the more strokes it takes you to complete the whole, the lower your score - so make sure you aim Kirby just right!
You'll find eight courses and a total of sixty-four holes in the game, not including the final showdown with King Dedede, as well as an action-packed two-player mode.

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
In this colorful 2D platformer, the peaceful country of Dream Land has fallen into deep sadness after its beautiful, star-lit sky suddenly went pitch black. Suspecting that the greedy King Dedede has stolen the stars for himself, the heroic Kirby sets off on a perilous adventure to the king's floating castle. Players must guide Kirby through a series of challenging traps and defeat Dedede's star-wielding servants to reclaim the stolen stars and restore happiness to the land.
Story
The Peace of Dream Land
Once upon a time, on a little star, there was a small, peaceful country called Dream Land. The Dream Spring incident was over and the inhabitants of Dream Land returned to their normal, peaceful lives. Every day, they would eat delicious meals and take wonderful afternoon naps.
There was no need to worry about anything since everything was so peaceful. At night, everyone slept soundly as thousands of stars lit the sky and quietly stood watch over Dream Land. The stars, known for their beauty, became the pride and joy of everyone in Dream Land.
The Disappearance
One night, the inhabitants said to one another, "Let's gaze at the star-lit sky and have wonderful dreams tonight." However, when they gazed up into the sky they noticed something was different. The sky was black, and there wasn't a single star in sight.
The next morning, everyone was very worried and upset. They asked each other what happened to the stars and if they would ever see them again. Someone tried to reassure them that the sky would be full of stars again, but the stars did not return that night, or the night after. Everyone in Dream Land became very sad.
A Gloomy Land
Many nights passed without the beautiful, star-lit sky. Every night, all they saw was the pitch black sky and no stars. Everyone was in a state of shock.
They were so worried that they gradually stopped eating their delicious meals and no longer enjoyed having dreams. Their spirits were sinking fast. Eventually, laughter ceased in Dream Land, and everyone stopped smiling.
The Rumors
Another dark, gloomy night loomed over Dream Land. All sorts of rumors had been spreading among the inhabitants.
People began saying:
•
"It looks like King Dedede is behind this."
•
"I bet he's hogging all those beautiful stars for himself!"
Could it be that King Dedede is indeed responsible for the missing stars?
A Hero Steps Up
If it's true, there's only one hero that can save the stars. Yes, that young hero is Kirby. He comes in with the spring breeze and saves Dream Land in times of crisis.
Kirby sets out for his long adventure to punish King Dedede once again and take back the stolen stars. Kirby heads for King Dedede's floating castle.
The king has set up many traps in his castle. His servants each have a star and they wait for Kirby's arrival at the castle. This adventure is full of new and amazing challenges. Good luck, Kirby!
