Kirby's Adventure/Hidden switches

There are some mini-games that can only be triggered through certain hidden switches that are scattered throughout the game. Some switches can be found easily, but for many, you will need a special ability in order to unlock these secrets. This chapter will guide you through step-by-step in order to unlock all the exclusive mini-games in Kirby's Adventure.

Note: You must complete this task in order to achieve 100% and unlock the Bonus Game.

Stage 1 - Unlocked: Arena
This is straightforward. When you enter the white corridor, go down until you see two blocks. Inhale both blocks, revealing a hidden door. Go in, and you will see room with a bomb icon, with a door on the other side of the ceiling. Dash into the icon, blasting the ceiling. Enter, and the switch is in the room.

Stage 6 - Unlocked: Warp Star Station
Again, very straightforward. When you are climbing the tower outside, you will see a balcony with blocks guarding a hidden door. Inhale the blocks, go inside, and you will go into a cavern with another bomb icon, and a secret door on the other side of the wall. Blast the wall, and quickly hover to the other side. Go into the door, and the hidden switch is waiting for you.

Stage 1 - Unlocked: Crane Fever
This switch will again be hidden behind blocks. In the dark part of the stage, inhale a Waddle Doo to get Beam. Use Beam to easily dig through the blocks until you see a cross-shaped group of blocks. After clearing those, hover inside and you'll find another hidden switch.

Stage 3 - Unlocked: Museum
No special ability is required. In the windy part of the stage, hover above all the blimps. Continue hovering until you cannot go any further. Hover down, until you see a blimp with a door. Go into the door, and trigger the switch.

Stage 6 - Unlocked: Warp Star Station
Special ability required: Light

In the pitch-black corridor, hop over a gap and go up the large stairs. There will be a Spook. Swallow it to get light and illuminate the path. Go back down the stairs. Watch out for enemies. Jump back over the gap and you will see a big white arch next to a pillar. To the left of the pillar there is a door. Enter inside, and the yellow switch for the Warp Star Station is there.

Stage 1 - Unlocked: Crane Fever
No special ability is required, but you will have to do some digging! In the part of the stage where you must fall, evading the falling enemies, you will land on some blocks where there is a door. Don't go through the door, but instead, dig through the blocks, until you reach another door below. Go inside, and the hidden switch is waiting for you.

Stage 4 - Unlocked: Arena
In the field containing waterfalls, go through one of them to enter a hidden cavern. Hover through the cavern until you see a door in the middle. Enter through there, trigger the switch, and the arena should now be accessible to you.

Stage 5 - Unlocked: Quick Draw
Special abilities required: Hi-jump, Fire

Getting this switch will take some work. You have to be quick on your arms and feet. As you're hovering through the forest, you will see a tree with a door. Enter through, and you will go to a field involving a Starman, a Hot Head, and a cannon. Unfortunately, the cannon is blocked by star blocks. This should be a breeze if you're a fast video gamer who knows puzzles involved in the getting the correct order. First inhale the Starman, then quickly clear the blockage. Hurry and inhale the Hot Head before he disappears from the screen (If you miss the Hot Head, you will have to repeat the process over again). Light the fuse, then quickly hover and fall into the cannon. Bull's Eye! You will land exactly on the switch.

Stage 6 - Unlocked: Warp Star Station
Special abilities required: Hammer

This is one of the toughest switches to get. You will need the Hammer ability for this switch. The quickest way to obtain the ability is to challenge Bonkers in the Arena you just unlocked. After defeating him, get the hammer. Hang on to that mallet! Dodge every Wheelie and Waddle Dee you encounter. When you get to the aquatic portion of the stage, go into a palm tree, revealing a room of bricks blocking a door. Using the hammer, smash the bricks, go through the door, and you will go into a cavern with the switch hidden inside.
