Crane Fever is aSub-Game inKirby's Adventure. It can be accessed on certain levels by going through the appropriate doorways in theLevel hubs.
The objective of the game is to grabKirby plushies from a crane vendor. The player gets two chances to grab one by holding and releasing the button at the right location; if successful, the crane will drop the plush into the slot. There are two kinds of plushies that can be grabbed. Smaller ones are easy to grab, and worth a1-Up. Larger ones, which resemble Kirby afterinhaling an object, are somewhat harder to grab but worth two 1-Ups. When a plush is successfully dropped, another of the same kind will replace it. Along with Kirby plushies, the machine also holds dolls ofNoddy,Waddle Dee, andWaddle Doo, though these cannot be interacted with.
This Sub-Game has three levels of difficulty. Higher levels make the crane faster and harder to control precisely.
The music used in this game is an altered cover of theVegetable Valley theme when the crane is still, and theButter Building theme when it is in motion.
