Pumpkin Grand is the first of the three race courses inGourmet Race fromKirby Super Star andKirby Super Star Ultra. It is a relatively straightforward course with lots offood on the causeway, and a few foot trippers in the form of small gaps, cubes of water, andStar Block barriers.
Overview[edit]
As mentioned above, this course is a mostly flat and straight affair. AfterWaddle Dee gives the signal, King Dedede will automatically start moving, so Kirby will need to be quick to keep ahead. The path begins with no hazards and a line of food moving up a series of small hills. From there, a cube of water appears on the path which can slow Kirby down somewhat. After a few flights of stairs, another slightly larger cube of water appears. From there, a wall ofStar Blocks appears which needs to be busted through. If Kirby does not do it, King Dedede will bust them away with his hammer. After a second Star Block wall and the first Maxim Tomato, Kirby must contend with a series of taller bumps in the path which need to be jumped over. The second Maxim Tomato appears just before the finish line.
There are 39 normal food items and twoMaxim Tomatoes on the stage. Maxim Tomatoes are worth three points each. All the food together is worth 45 points.
