'''''Kirby: Squeak Squad''''', (known as '''''Kirby: Mouse Attack''''' in British English, and sometimes spelled without a colon) is a main-series [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' game]] for the [[Nintendo DS]] released in 2006, developed by Flagship and Natsume, and published by [[HAL Laboratory]] and [[Nintendo]]. The game uses the same base graphical style as its preceding games, ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'' and ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'', though several new [[sprite]]s for [[Kirby]] and other characters are present, and the game engine has been updated, providing smoother gameplay. Being on the Nintendo DS, a number of stylus-based features are included, mainly in the form of the [[Bubble (container)|bubbles]] and the [[Copy Palette]], which gives Kirby an inventory of sorts that he can use to store [[Treasure Chest]]s and other items. The game features a main story mode and four [[Sub-Game]]s, with [[Boss Endurance|one of them]] being hidden initially. Another feature is the [[Collection Room]], where the player can change Kirby's [[Colors|color]], listen to music, and view collected items.

''Kirby: Squeak Squad'' plays very similarly to other main-series titles, though it features a more traditional level and stage system, similar to that of [[Dyna Blade (main game)|Dyna Blade]] from ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'', though larger in scope. In this game, Kirby has his precious [[Strawberry Shortcake]] stolen by a band of interstellar thieving mice called the [[Squeaks]], and he chases them all over the world to get it back. In the process, Kirby gets tangled up first with [[King Dedede]] and then with [[Meta Knight]], and fights both of them over a misunderstanding. In the latter case, Kirby and the Squeaks' leader [[Daroach]] accidentally open up a treasure chest containing [[Dark Nebula|an ancient evil]], and Kirby has to battle and defeat it using Daroach's [[Triple Star]] cane. Only afterward, as thanks for saving him and as an apology for the trouble he caused, does Daroach return Kirby's cake to him, ending the conflict.
