Kirby Snack Tracks is one of the Sub-Games in Kirby Super Star Ultra, and is available from the start of the game. This Sub-Game is unlocked and available immediately for even new gamefiles. As with the other Sub-Games, Kirby Snack Tracks is played from the lower screen. Kirby Snack Tracks is playable in both single player and up to four players via a wireless connection.[1] The two player game can be done with even only one Game Card.[2] The one player mode offers three levels of difficulty at the start of the sub-game.
Gameplay
The game pits four colored Kirbys (pink, yellow, red, green) in a feeding game. The game is a speed/reaction and observation style game. The four Kirbys lie in front of a conveyor belt and for 60 seconds food, caterpillars, bombs,[3] rocks, or food with worms will approach Kirby. The objective is to eat as much food as possible[4] and tap the bugs, rocks, and bombs to send them away,[5] preferably to another competitor. The bugs are eliminated by tapping them once, but rocks need to be tapped twice.[6] If a bomb explodes on a track, all of the incoming food on-screen will be destroyed. After the first 30 seconds passes, the competitors' placement shuffles. The players compete to have the highest score.
Scoring
A combo of Food and Maxim Tomatoes add a variable bonus amount.
| Name | Points |
|---|---|
| Food | Adds 3 points |
| Maxim Tomato | Adds 6 points |
| Worm | Subtracts 2 points |
| Rocks | Subtracts 2 points |
| Bombs | Subtracts 10 points |
