Due to being an enhanced port of the [[Game Boy]] original, ''Kirby's Star Stacker'' plays largely the same way. The player is given a game board which fills up with various types of blocks that fall from above in a similar manner to ''[[wikipedia:Tetris|Tetris]]''. The main objective is to clear these blocks by lining them up in the correct ways. The main method of doing this is by placing two of the same type of "Friend Block" (resembling Kirby's [[Animal Friend]]s [[Rick]], [[Kine]], and [[Coo]]) in-between one or more [[Star Block]]s. The number of Star Blocks removed then determines how many "stars" Kirby has "stacked", which is the main scoring mechanic in the game. Blocks fall in pairs with random types inset, which can be steered using the Control Pad until they land on the blocks below, whereupon they break apart if one side is still hanging over an empty space. In addition to the above blocks, there are also two other types: Hard Blocks and Bomb Blocks. Hard Blocks can be turned into Star Blocks when sandwiched between two matching Friend Blocks, and placing a Bomb Block between two Friend Blocks will remove all blocks on the same row. | Due to being an enhanced port of the [[Game Boy]] original, ''Kirby's Star Stacker'' plays largely the same way.

*'''Challenge''' - An endless mode in which the objective is to gain as many stars as possible before the middle stack of blocks touches the top of the screen. The player can choose between four difficulties: Normal, Hard, Super Hard, and Insane. No matter which difficulty is selected, as the player progresses, blocks start to appear faster and the music changes. | *'''Challenge''' - An endless mode in which the objective is to gain as many stars as possible before the middle stack of blocks touches the top of the screen.
