''Kirby Mass Attack'' is - like the main ''Kirby'' series games - a side-scrolling 2D platformer that tasks Kirby to reach the end of stages filled with various enemies, obstacles, and occasionally boss fights. However, much like ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn]]'' before it, the core gameplay is very different from that of the main series. Due to having been split into ten weaker copies, the Kirbys are no longer able to [[hover]], [[inhale]], or use [[Copy Ability|Copy Abilities]]. Instead, their main means of attack is by latching onto enemies and pummeling them, or by being tossed at enemies and hazards to impact them, in a very similar manner to how [[pikipedia:Pikmin family|Pikmin]] fight. In another similarity to the ''Pikmin'' games, the player does not control the Kirbys directly, but instead plays the role of a leader in the form of [[Kirby's heroic heart]], which is a star-shaped object that acts as a cursor. This heart is controlled by means of the Nintendo DS stylus, and tapping places on the screen tells the Kirbys where to go. Other key actions include tapping and holding down to drag the Kirbys along a magical line to get them around hazards, or tapping and quickly flicking a Kirby to throw him in the direction indicated.

In another departure from the main ''Kirby'' series, ''Kirby Mass Attack'' does not have a traditional [[stamina|health meter]] for the Kirbys, but instead gives each one two hit points, and shows their state of health by their body color: Healthy Kirbys are pink, wounded Kirbys are blue, and KO'd Kirbys are gray. Wounded Kirbys can be restored to full health by tossing them through a Recovery Ring, which can be found at various points in stages. KO'd Kirbys will slowly flutter away on angel's wings and can be saved and returned to blue status if they are captured by a living Kirby before they are gone. However, some hazards such as [[Skully]]s and [[Gruegloom]]s may destroy Kirbys they manage to catch without any chance of rescue, while other hazards such as [[crusher]]s will KO Kirbys regardless of their health status. In the case that any Kirbys are lost, the player can replenish their numbers by having the remaining one(s) collect [[Fruit]]. Collecting 100 points worth of fruit will automatically add a new Kirby to the team, or give a score bonus if there are already ten. If all 10 Kirbys are lost during a stage, a [[Game Over]] occurs, and the stage has to be replayed from the beginning (there is no [[1-Up|extra life system]] in ''Kirby Mass Attack'').
