Reflected Laughter is the third stage in Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe. It is a mild-tempo stage set to the song Reflected Laughter which introduces number coins and breakable drums.

OverviewEdit

This stage spans a total of 50 drums from beginning to end. The stage begins normally enough with lines of Melody Coins leading past Scarfies, but soon enough, a new hazard in the form of breakable drums appears on the stage, which King Dedede will need to be mindful to to bounce on too many times. Further in, the first set of number coins appear which need to be collected in order; first a set of three, then another of five. After passing the Recovery Ring, one more set of five number coins can be collected just before the goal drum.

Secret versionEdit

Breakable drums everywhere! Be careful, or you're going down. And try not to miss any number coins!

The secret version of Reflected Laughter completely overhauls the stage design compared to the original stage. It now spans a total of 47 drums, though several of these are widely spaced apart. Many more of the drums than before are breakable ones, with number coins often spaced in a way that requires carefully-planned movement to collect the coins before the drums break. There are also several places where the gaps get so wide that only a super jump can clear them.
