This mini-game pits [[Kirby]] against three opponents in a challenge to strike the blocks the hardest. Strong punches will crack much more than the targeted blocks, with even [[Pop Star]] being cracked (nearly in half). Up to two players can play the sub-game. | ||

Three levels of difficulty are offered with the only difference being how high the opponents will score. A set of three meters will determine the strength of the players' punch.

A set of three meters will determine the strength of the players' punch. The first is a rising and falling bar meter that gives a harder hit when activated at the top. Secondly, a pair of cross-hairs will rotate and occasionally blend together. Activating while the {{center}}s are overlapping yields the hardest punch. Lastly, a pendulum will swing past a targeted circle, which rewards a harder strike for activating while dead-center. | ||
