The '''Fountain of Dreams''', also known as the '''Dream Spring'''<ref>''"The Dream Spring, source of all dreams, has dried up, taking with it all the blissful dreams of Dream Land."'' (''Kirby's Adventure'' blurb)</ref> or the '''Dream Fountain''',<ref>''"Can you help guide Kirby through the competition so he arrives successfully at the Dream Fountain?"'' (''[[Kirby's Avalanche]]'' manual)</ref> is a location that has appeared in many ''[[Kirby (series)|Kirby]]'' games. It made its first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', as well as in its remake ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]''. The fountain is said to have been created by the [[Star Rod]], which gives the fountain power and radiates this energy out across [[Dream Land]] to give good dreams to all of its citizens.<ref>''"Legends told that the Dream Spring was created by a magical artifact known as the Star Rod. The sparkling star on the tip of this scepter was an actual fragment of a star that had landed in Dream Land in the distant past. The Star Rod now provided energy to the Dream Spring and served as the very symbol of Dream Land."'' <small>--''Kirby's Adventure'' Instruction Booklet (North American print), page 6</small></ref> Similar-looking fountains can be found on other planets, and collecting the power housed within all of them is the only way to summon the legendary [[Galactic Nova]].

==Game appearances==
===''Kirby's Adventure'' / ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land''===

[[File:KNiDL The Fountain Of Dreams opening screenshot.png|thumb|left|The Fountain of Dreams cutscene]]
In ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' and its remake, ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'', the Fountain of Dreams serves as the game's final level. [[King Dedede]] is fought in front of the fountain in [[Rainbow Resort]]'s [[Rainbow Resort - Stage 7|final stage]], and in the following level, [[Nightmare]] emerges from it after Kirby returns the Star Rod to its mount on the top of the fountain. From there, Kirby must use the Star Rod to chase down and destroy Nightmare once and for all.

===''Kirby's Avalanche''===
The Fountain of Dreams, referred to as the Dream Fountain, appears in the final stages of ''[[Kirby's Avalanche]]''{{'}}s Competition mode, starting with Stage 9. The manual of the game elaborates that an Avalanche tournament is being held at the Dream Fountain, and the winner will become the Avalanche champion and win the Dream Fountain Cup. The opponents faced at the Dream Fountain are [[Heavy Mole]], [[Mr. Shine & Mr. Bright]], [[Kracko]], [[Meta Knight]], and [[King Dedede]], the last of whom is the final boss. If Kirby successfully defeats King Dedede, he receives the Dream Fountain Cup to commemorate his victory.

In this game, the [[Star Rod]] does not appear at the top of the fountain, instead being replaced by a decoration resembling Nightmare's Power Orb.

===''Kirby Super Star'' / ''Kirby Super Star Ultra''===
[[File:KSS Fountain of Dreams.png|thumb|The Fountain of Dreams in Milky Way Wishes of ''Kirby Super Star'']]
In ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and its remake, ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', the Fountain of Dreams appears during the [[Milky Way Wishes]] sub-game. The fountain appears in the game's opening cutscene, where it emits a bright beacon into the sky before the narration reveals that the Sun and Moon of Kirby's home planet, Popstar, are fighting each other. Near the end of the cutscene, the fountain is shown creating a [[Warp Star]] for Kirby to use to travel through space. Each planet Kirby visits (with the exception of [[???]]) has its own Fountain of Dreams that holds one of the stars Kirby needs to summon Galactic Nova.

[[Marx]] asks Kirby to summon the great comet [[Nova]] in an attempt to restore peace to the sun and moon. To do this, Kirby had to awaken the power of each Fountain of Dreams of seven other nearby planets to gather the surrounding stars. Kirby would soon find out that this would be all for naught after Marx uses Nova for his own selfish desires. The fountains Kirby visits on his journey are all more or less identical to the Fountain of Dreams on Popstar.

[[Meta Knight]] would also carry out the same task later on in [[Meta Knightmare Ultra]], only this time to get Nova to summon the all-powerful warrior known as [[Galacta Knight]] for him to fight. Ironically, Meta Knight is not shown visiting each planet's Fountain of Dreams.

===''Kirby Fighters Deluxe'' & ''Kirby Fighters 2''===
{{main|Fountain of Dreams (Battle Stage)}}
Fountain of Dreams is a [[Battle Stage]] in ''[[Kirby Fighters Deluxe]]'' and ''[[Kirby Fighters 2]]''. It is completely flat with no hazards, and replaces [[Another Dimension (Battle Stage)|Another Dimension]] from the [[Kirby Fighters]] Sub-Game.

In ''Kirby Fighters Deluxe'' [[Team DDD]] are fought here in the final round of Single Player mode, using the ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'' 2D background on the Very Hard difficulty, and the default 3D background on the other difficulty levels.

The stage returns in ''Kirby Fighters 2'', though this time the stage does not have 3D form, instead always using the 2D background.

===''Kirby and the Rainbow Curse''===
In this game, the Fountain of Dreams appears as an icon in the [[Jukebox|Music Room]] that represents the ''Kirby's Adventure'' music tracks.

===''Kirby Star Allies''===
The Fountain of Dreams appears in the [[Celebration Picture]]: "Friends' Getaway".

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
[[File:SSBM Fountain of Dreams.png|thumb|250px|The Fountain of Dreams stage as seen in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.]]
{{SmashWiki}}
The Fountain of Dreams appears as a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. The stage is actually set in a large pool of water, with the fountain in the background. There are two floating platforms on the left and right side of the stage that are supported by a jet of water and move up and down, and one stationary floating platform in the middle of the stage. The default music that plays on this stage is a remix of the "[[Gourmet Race (theme)|Gourmet Race]]" theme from ''Kirby Super Star''. The design of the fountain and the music that plays on the stage was later re-used for the King Dedede battle in ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land''. It also appears that the design for the stage would later inspire the permanent design for the Fountain of Dreams in later ''Kirby'' games. The stage's music was also used in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' as an alternate track for the [[smashwiki: Green_Greens|Green Greens]] stage, and in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'' as an alternate track for the [[smashwiki: Dream_Land_(SSB)|Dream Land]] stage.

It returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' with a graphical upgrade and added details.

|''"This mystical fountain in Dream Land uses the power of the Star Rod to create a gush of pleasant dreams that flow like water. The dreams then become a fine mist and drift over the land, bringing peaceful rest to one and all. It's been confirmed that there are identical facilities on other planets near Pop Star."''

==Trivia==
[[File:Kid_Kirby_Fountain_Of_Dreams.png|thumb|right|200px|The Fountain of Dreams as seen in ''Kid Kirby'']]
*The Fountain of Dreams was going to be one of the main subjects of the storyline for the canceled SNES game, ''[[Kid Kirby]]''. In an assets reveal by ex-DMA developer "Mike Dailly", the Fountain of Dreams appears in what seems to be a boss arena.
*According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], the Fountain of Dreams was supposed to flash rather than shake in the ending cutscene of ''Kirby's Adventure'', but that does not happen due to an oversight. He has not forgotten the error years later.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPSFfqxpVJk <nowiki>You'll Forget the Hardship, But the Game Will Endure!
