— In-game description ofSamurai Kirby 100 fromKirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe

Samurai Kirby 100 is a special variant ofSamurai Kirby that appears exclusively inKirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, accessible fromMerry Magoland after playingSamurai Kirby at least once. It pitsKirby against 99 other Kirbys based on the most recent reaction times in the game from players around the world. While it is not played live against these other players, it requires aNintendo Switch Online connection in order to obtain data for those reaction times. The game can be played if it is not connected to the internet, but it will only generate CPU "wandering adversaries" for the player to compete against.

Gameplay[edit]

Samurai Kirby 100 is the only subgame inKirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe that is not played with more than one player at a time. Instead, Player 1 takes Kirby into the game in order to compete with other players' times. A long line-up of these player Kirbys (which can be seen wearing differentDress-Up Masks) appear on the battlefield, stretching into the distance until they cannot be seen anymore. Before the round starts, all the names of the players whose times are represented will be shown. Once the signal to strike is given and followed, a scene will play out where the player's Kirby plows through every opponent that he was faster than until meeting the last opponent he can best. After this, the player is shown a stats board showing how many opponents they defeated, and where they place overall on the rankings for that particular group of 100. Notably, the player may only have their attempt recorded on the rankings once per day, but may replay as many times as they want afterward or practice rounds against CPU opponents otherwise.

Samurai Kirby 100 has its own place in the plaza for Merry Magoland, represented by a large spinning globe, rather than being tied to the mainSamurai Kirby mode at the castle. It is the only subgame inKirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe which cannot be accessed from inside theLor Starcutter.
