Underneath the Dream Land characters is Compile's Puyo Puyo, adapted by Nintendo for Western players in 1995 much as Sega did with Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine. Kirby heads to the Dream Fountain to compete in an Avalanche tournament, facing creatures from his own games, with King Dedede as the final opponent. The pre-match chat between Kirby and his rivals is surprisingly cheeky.
The rules are classic Puyo: pairs of colored blobs fall into the well, and four or more of one color touching each other disappear. Chains, where one clear causes more blobs to fall and clear in turn, send clear garbage blobs to your opponent's side, and a large chain can bury them quickly. Strategy is about building chain setups instead of clearing pieces as they arrive. A two-player mode and different difficulty levels are included, and the game has kept a following among puzzle fans.
Tips for Kirby's Avalanche
Avoid clearing small groups right away; stack colors to set up chains.
Clear garbage blobs by making a color match next to them.
Watch the opponent's well and send a chain when they are close to the top.
