Much like its predecessor, [[Kirby 3D Rumble]], the aim of ''Kirby's Blowout Blast'' is to reach the end of each stage while earning as high a score as possible. The stages are a linear progression along a 3-dimensional pathway which Kirby must traverse, collecting [[Score Coin|coins]] and defeating enemies along the way. Instead of relying on [[Copy Ability|Copy Abilities]], Kirby has only his [[Inhale]] and subsequent [[Star Bullet]]s or [[Air Bullet]]s to deal with enemies. | Much like its predecessor, [[Kirby 3D Rumble]], the aim of ''Kirby's Blowout Blast'' is to reach the end of each stage while earning as high a score as possible.

In this state (known officially as '''Full Belly Kirby''')m Kirby takes up more space, and is able to collect coins in a wider area around him. When he then releases his payload, the star bullet comes out as a giant rainbow-col{{o}}red '''Blaster Bullet''' which will take out enemies in a very wide path, wider than the bullet itself appears to be. | ||
At the end of each stage, Kirby must either deal with an entourage of enemies or fight a [[Boss]] on top of that. Once cleared, a score will be calculated based on how well Kirby did during the stage. Scoring factors include time remaining, the number of coins collected, the number of enemies defeated (bonus points are conveyed with larger bullet combos), and how many times Kirby was hit (with less naturally being better in this case). From there, a trophy is rewarded, with the worst being bronze, (awarded simply for completing the stage) up to platinum at best (a practically perfect run). Completing the stage is all that is necessary to advance in the level, but a Gold or better is needed to unlock the EX levels. | At the end of each stage, Kirby must either deal with an entourage of enemies or fight a [[Boss]] on top of that.

There are a number of [[Food]] items that can be collected to restore vitality, but these are not worth any points (and are useless if the player is aiming for Platinum rank). | ||
