- Main article: Kirby's Dream Land 3
The manual for Kirby's Dream Land 3 goes over many game aspects, such as game controls and mechanics. It also goes over information, such as the story behind the game, or the locations.
Story
At the beginning is the "Story" section. The English version of this section goes as follows:
Kirby, our hero, makes his home in Dream Land, which is located on PopStar. PopStar is a small, peaceful planet at the edge of the universe.
"One day, Kirby and Gooey went fishing. Birds were singing. The sun was shining. It was such a nice day that they felt more like napping than fishing.
As Kirby and Gooey relaxed, they noticed a black, cloud-like object appear in the PopStar sky!
The black object started to spit out small clouds. These clouds were scattered everywhere.
Just then, Coo appeared, looking panicked. "Hurry, Kirby!" he said. "PopStar's in BIG trouble!"
The small clouds took control of King Dedede and his minions. They started to do terrible things!
Now, Kirby and his friends have left to get rid of these strange clouds and save PopStar!
