At the end of each level, Kirby battles a Boss, who drops one of the stars upon defeat. After besting King Dedede, Kirby is able to collect the last one, and he uses them to turn himself into a giant hot air balloon, and carry Dedede's castle along with the food inside back to Dream Land. From there, it can be presumed that the stars were returned to their rightful position.

Once again, King Dedede stole the five Sparkling Stars and hid them in his castle. After defeating King Dedede, Kirby collects the Sparkling Stars and uses them to break the castle down to uncover the fountain that it had been built over.

Kirby collects four of the Sparkling Stars in [[Spring Breeze]], which serve the same function that they did in ''Kirby's Dream Land''. The Sparkling Stars' role is notably deemphasized in Spring Breeze, to the extent that the game no longer directly mentions their presence.

The stars that Kirby collects in [[Milky Way Wishes]] are reminiscent of the Sparkling Stars, though it is not clear if they are the same objects or not.

In [[Revenge of the King]], Kirby collects three Sparkling Stars from the bosses in the first three stages. When he faces off against [[Kabula]] in Mt. Dedede Sky, she shoots down his [[Warp Star]]. At this point, the three stars Kirby collected coalesce into the [[Starship]], which Kirby can then use to battle the menacing blimp. After this, the Sparkling Stars are not seen in again in this mode.

Much like in ''Kirby's Dream Land'', the goal in this adventure is to retrieve the Sparkling Stars, which King Dedede has once again stolen. This time, there are eight to collect, one from each area.

===''Kirby's Blowout Blast''===
A Sparkling Star makes an appearance after [[King Dedede]] is defeated. It flies down toward where he landed, and causes him to grow giant, then start attacking Kirby again. The star's effect wears off when Dedede is defeated again. To distinguish it from a [[Warp Star]], the Sparkling Star in this game is rainbow-colored rather than pure yellow, though yellow and pink are its most predominant colors.

==Trivia==
*The Sparkling Star's use in ''Kirby's Blowout Blast'' is similar to the [[mariowiki:Grand Stars|Grand Stars]] from ''[[mariowiki:Super Mario Galaxy 2|Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', as both cause the villains who use them to grow large in size.
