{{Quote|One night, {{Explain|(of Dream Land)|the inhabitants}} said to one another, "Let's gaze at the star-lit sky and have wonderful dreams tonight." However, when they gazed up into the sky they noticed something was different. The sky was black.

The story of ''Kirby's Dream Course'' is conveyed in different ways depending on the region. The Japanese version features an in-game cutscene setting up the premise, while the international release, which uses an 8 megabit cartridge instead of a 10 megabit one, conveys it entirely in the instruction booklet.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Kirby%27s_Dream_Course#Regional_Differences ''Kirby's Dream Course'']. The Cutting Room Floor. Retrieved May 8, 2024.</ref><br>Some time after the events of ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' (referred to as the "[[Fountain of Dreams|Dream Spring]] incident" in the booklet), the inhabitants of [[Dream Land]] decide to gaze up into the night sky to admire the stars that decorate it. However, they soon realize that all of the stars have gone missing. Night after night, they look again in hopes the stars will return, but they do not, causing the Dream Landers to sink into a deep depression. Soon, suspicions are raised that [[King Dedede]] is once again responsible for stealing all of Dream Land's stars and hoarding them in his floating castle. [[Kirby]], once more "arriving with the spring breeze," comes in to save Dream Land by retrieving its stolen stars from King Dedede.
