Castle Dedede is the fourth stage ofDream Land inKirby's Epic Yarn andKirby's Extra Epic Yarn, unlocked by clearingCloud Palace and obtaining theBoxing Glove Patch. This stage takes place inside thecastle halls and chambers, mainly involving dodging and riding the bullets of large cannons. Completing this stage grants theBells of Joy Patch, used to unlock the battle withYin-Yarn.

This stage is the inspiration forStage 4 ofDedede Gogogo inKirby's Extra Epic Yarn.

Patch animation[edit]

Upon throwing the patch, the castle gains huge arms with boxing gloves on them, which it uses to punch the ground twice, causing stars to fly upward. After striking a pose, the arms on the castle disintegrate, then weave into stars to turn into a red drape under the castle. At this point, the door opens.

Overview[edit]

The stage begins inside the castle, in a lower chamber. Here,Kirby will encounter the first set of largecannons shooting huge bullets up into the air. Kirby will soon find out that he can ride these bullets in order to get where he needs to go. Many of the following chambers thus test Kirby's knowledge by giving him more cannon bullets to jump across, though there will be several places where he will need to do regular dodging of these bullets. Along the way, several enemies will need to be defeated, and severalRotating Cannons will need to be used. At the top of the castle, Kirby can find the throne room occupied by aBig Waddle Dee. Defeating this snoozing usurper will reveal the way forward behind a portrait, but will also reveal a statue ofYin-Yarn in the place where the throne originally was. TheBonus Bell can be found just above to clear this stage.

Trivia[edit]

• In the American English version of the games, the in-game description for this song's CD incorrectly states it as being fromKirby's Dream Land, when it is originally fromKirby Super Star, a mistake that persists with all arrangements from previousKirby games. The British English versions correctly state it's from theKirby series instead. This may be due to the Japanese name forKirby's Dream Land,Hoshi no Kirby, also being the name of the series as a whole.
