Chop Champs is aSub-Game inKirby Star Allies. It features fourKirbys competing to see who can chop the most wood from their tree in a 30-second time limit.
Tutorial[edit]
| “ | Chop your tree as much as you can before time runs out.Swing the Joy-Con to swing the axe! Watch out forcaterpillars andGordos! Use ←/→ tododge quickly! Gordos fly toother trees! Chop down your tree as much as possible to build alog house! | ” | — In-game tutorial |
Chop Champs can be played with up to four players, with non-human players being controlled by theCPU. Each contestant stands next to their tree with an axe, and lops off log sections one after the other. Each segment chopped is worth 50 points.
On the log segments,caterpillars andGordos can be found. If they make contact with Kirby, they will hurt him, slowing him down. To avoid them, Kirby can switch sides on the trunk. If Kirby hits a trunk section with a Gordo on it, that Gordo will be passed over to the trunk of a different contestant.
The higher a Kirby's rank is, the more accomplished their log house is in the results.
Levels[edit]
| “ | Easy does it! Chop away as much of your tree as you can. Avoid caterpillars! | ” | — Chop Amateur flavor text |
| “ | Chop faster, chief! Just watch out for the Gordos that come flying! | ” | — Chop Chief flavor text |
| “ | A challenge for champions, with lots of Gordos and caterpillars. Chop away! | ” | — Chop Champion flavor text |
There are three difficulty levels in Chop Champs, ranked from easy to difficult:
- Chop Amateur
- Chop Chief
- Chop Champion
In higher difficulty levels, the tree is taller and Kirby can chop faster. There are different set heights for the trees, which vary depending on difficulty level. As such, there is only so much wood that can be chopped before the tree is completely logged. To reach the perfect high score, the player must chopevery log as fast as possible.
Chop Chief and Chop Champion cannot be played until Chop Amateur is cleared. To complete this sub-game, the player must be ranked 3rd or higher in Chop Champion, which contributes 3% to100% completion. The first two levels don't count any percentage, i.e. Chop Chief is not required for 100% completion at all.
| Level | Unlock Requirement | 100% completion Percentage | Obstacles | Tree Height | Perfect High Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chop Amateur | Available at start | None | Caterpillars | 16 m / 64 segments | 3200 |
| Chop Chief | Clear Chop Amateur | None | Caterpillars &Gordos | 27.5 m / 110 segments | 5500 |
| Chop Champion | 3% | Caterpillars &Gordos | 45.75 m / 183 segments | 9150 |
Trivia[edit]
- The gameplay resembles the mobile phone gameTimberman.
- Each log is about 25 cm high, which is close toKirby's 20 cm (8 inches) height.
- If Kirby refuses to chop any logs, the results screen shows him in the last place pose with two piles of timber behind him, as opposed to the regular last-place house.
