Grass Land - Stage 1 is the first stage of Grass Land in Kirby's Dream Land 3. This stage serves as an introduction to the game, and introduces Nago and Rick.

Overview

The stage begins on a lovely grassy field. To the right, Waddle Dees can be seen patrolling the area, but they are no match for Kirby's mouth. Further right, a Sir Kibble appears, which Kirby can swallow for the Cutter ability. This ability can be used to break blocks that bear the Cutter symbol on them to get bonus stars. Along the way, a door can be accessed in the middle of the path which leads to a side-chamber containing both Rick and Nago, ready to go. On the main path, the door to the next area can be found to the right, past more patrolling enemies and soft hills.

The next room contains Sasukes patrolling on parasol-weak blocks, the blocks being a hint to the ability these creatures will yield if swallowed. Further down, this ability can be used to gain access to a 1-Up. On the other side of the valley, a Sparky can be swallowed to gain access to another treat. The door to the next area can be found atop some cliffs further right.

In this area, Kirby traverses a plain filled with red flowers. It is in Kirby's best interest to leave these flowers alone as he proceeds. Near the end of the path, an Invincible Candy can be eaten to really speed things up.

In the last room, Kirby can meet up with another red flower character. If it is pleased, it will give Kirby a Heart Star. From there, the stage exit is just beyond.

Heart Star guide

Kirby and Nago need to avoid trampling the flowers if they want a Heart Star in this stage.

The first Heart Star is given out by a large red tulip with eyes. To get this piece, Kirby must venture through this stage without stepping on or otherwise harming any of the flower's buddies along the way.
