![]() Players roll dice to determine the starting order then select handicaps before starting the 2P Game. The only way to gain more lives is to score a hole-in-one on a course or reach a new course with less than two extra lives (at which the lives will be reset to two). Running out of lives results in a Game Over, and the course will have to be replayed from the first hole. His meter is represented by up to four "Energy Tomatoes", and if he runs out during a course, he will lose a life. Instead of there being a specific par for each course, Kirby operates on an energy meter which depletes every time he makes a shot and replenishes whenever he defeats an enemy or makes it into a cup. To complicate this task, most of the courses are littered with various hazards and other obstacles which can be overcome with deft use of Kirby's controls and/or the ten Copy Abilities which can be obtained from certain enemies. ![]() As such, Kirby must defeat all but one standard enemy on the hole before he can finish, which is done by bumping into them during shots. Unlike in traditional golf, the cup is not initially on the field, as it only appears in place of the last enemy remaining once all the others have been defeated, adding an extra level of strategy to each hole. Kirby serves as the ball, and the goal of the game is to get him into the cup at the end of each hole in as few strokes as possible. Kirby's Dream Course is a miniature golf-like game set in an isometric 2.5-dimensional environment. Kirby's Dream Course revolves around guiding Kirby through hazardous golf-like stages to defeat enemies, using Copy Abilities to help traverse the terrain. Kirby, once more arriving with the spring breeze, comes in to save Dream Land by retrieving its stolen stars from King Dedede. Soon, suspicions are raised that King Dedede is once again responsible for stealing all of Dream Land's stars and hoarding them in his floating castle. Night after night, they look again in hopes the stars will return, but they do not, causing the Dream Landers to sink into a deep depression. However, they soon realize that all of the stars have gone missing. Some time after the events of Kirby's Adventure (referred to as the " Dream Spring incident" in the booklet), the inhabitants of Dream Land decide to gaze up into the night sky to admire the stars that decorate it. This is not the case in the Japanese version, where the plot is described in-game. The story of Kirby's Dream Course is contained entirely within the instruction booklet, where the premise is set for Kirby to go on his latest journey.
