Story
When Kirby wakes up one morning, he finds that his house has been lifted into the sky by a giant beanstalk. He rushes out of the sky, only to fall down onto Castle Dedede, which has also been lifted up. Storming the castle, he finds a mysterious, six-armed being named Taranza kidnapping King Dedede. Kirby chases Taranza up the Dreamstalk into the floating kingdom of Floralia to save Dedede and return Dream Land to normal. Along the way, Kirby would utilize the power of the Miracle Fruit to become Hypernova Kirby and inhale very massive objects with ease.
Eventually, Kirby reaches the top of Floralia, Royal Road, and catches up to Taranza. With Taranza explaining how he kidnapped the "hero of Dream Land" to prevent them from interfering with he and the queen's plans for world domination, he puppeteers King Dedede (as Masked Dedede) in an attempt to defeat Kirby. Masked Dedede is then defeated and broken from Taranza's control, making it clear that Kirby is the actual "hero of Dream Land". Taranza calls upon Queen Sectonia to save him from Kirby, but he is then knocked aside due to his failure earlier, and the queen begins to duel with Kirby.
With Queen Sectonia defeated, she uses her magic to merge herself with the Dreamstalk, and attempts to strangle the entirety of Floralia and Planet Popstar to siphon all their energies. King Dedede eventually wakes up and, accompanied by the People of the Sky, helps Kirby in reaching and battling Queen Sectonia in her flowered state. Kirby nearly wins the battle but Queen Sectonia catches him off-guard and attempts to squeeze him to exhaustion with one of her vines. King Dedede and Taranza come to the rescue and free Kirby, then give him a Miracle Fruit to transform him into Hypernova Kirby and finish off Queen Sectonia once and for all. With peace returned to Floralia and the Dreamstalk purified of the queen's influence, Kirby and King Dedede are ferried back home by the People of the Sky and Taranza as the story ends.
Gameplay
General gameplay is similar to Kirby's Return to Dream Land. One of the key differences with this game, however, is the interactivity with the background: certain enemies will attack from background areas, certain items allow Kirby to damage enemies and interact with objects in the background, and by using the 3D Warp Star Kirby fly between the background and foreground.
In addition to the new Copy Abilities, the player will occasionally find a special Miracle Fruit which gives Kirby the special Hypernova ability, allowing Kirby to inhale larger objects that he normally cannot. This ability is similar to the Super Abilities from Kirby's Return to Dream Land, in that it is required for solving various puzzles.
Kirby progresses through stages using a world map system. Within each stage are three Sun Stones, which must be collected to unlock the boss stage of each world. Also available in each stage are Keychains, collectibles which depict sprites of characters, items, or objects from past Kirby games.
In addition to the main game, various other modes are also available, some only unlocked after finishing the game. Among these are Kirby Fighters, a fighting game similar in style to Super Smash Bros.; Dedede's Drum Dash, a rhythm game featuring King Dedede; Dededetour!, a mode in which players play the main game as King Dedede; and The Arena and The True Arena, the boss rush modes.
