a recurring trend also seen in Kirby & the Amazing Mirror. A new concept to Kirby games introduced in this game are the Copy Scrolls, which power-up any power that Kirby has when chosen. Examples include Hammer growing to nearly double its normal size if charged up, Tornado and Wheel taking the elemental properties of the terrain they pass over, and Spark building up energy that can be released in a similar fashion to the way the Plasma ability from Kirby Super Star worked. Each level contains one or more treasure chests (usually each level contains two small red chests and a large blue chest, although boss levels only contain one big blue chest), with the ultimate goal of the game to collect all the chests; the chests include keys needed to unlock secret levels and worlds, the ability to change Kirby's color, portions of a jigsaw puzzle picture, and more additional game content; these are awarded when the player successfully completes the level with that chest. The player will need to make sure they have enough space in Kirby's stomach to store the chests, removing unneeded items or combining similar items to make space.

If the player fails to obtain any chests, they are free to go back to any previously completed level to try to retrieve the chest again. Chests already recovered can be collected again, but will contain an item in a bubble. Only five items can be stored at a time. The game supports multi-card multiplayer and single-card download play for three special mini-games based on the Squeak Squad.

Kirby immediately suspects King Dedede of committing the same crime again, so he leaves to go confront him. Finding Dedede at the end of World 1, Kirby defeats him in battle, but soon discovers Dedede was not responsible. Immediately after, a group of treasure-thieving mice known as the
