Find all crystal shards in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards Third Course (4), including the Needle power shard and Adeleine's painting puzzle.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    In the first section, use the Needle power (which you will find there along with the shard) to blow up the orange block and reveal a crystal shard.
  2. 2
    In the third section, Adeleine (an NPC (non-player character — anyone the game controls, not you), or non-player character) will paint a picture of either a hat, an umbrella, or a pizza. Proceed to the next section, which contains many star blocks. Use Kirby's air-shooting ability to remove blocks, aiming to replicate the shape of Adeleine's painting. The correct shapes are shown below:
          Hat                      Pizza                   Umbrella
       _ _ _ _ _                   _ _ _                       _
      |_|_|_|_|_|                _|_|_|_|_                   _|_|_ 
      |_|_|_|_|_|              _|_|_|_|_|_|_               _|_|_|_|_ 
      |_|_|_|_|_|             |_|_|_|_|_|_|_|            _|_|_|_|_|_|_ 
      |_|_|_|_|_|             |_|_|_|_|_|_|_|           |_|_|_|_|_|_|_| 
      |_|_|_|_|_|             |_|_|_|_|                       |_| 
     _|_|_|_|_|_|_              |_|_|_|                       |_| 
    |_|_|_|_|_|_|_|               |_|_|                       |_| 
    If you make a mistake, return to the section with Adeleine and re-enter the star block section to try again. A crystal shard will appear in the center of the correctly formed blocks.
  3. 3
    In the fifth section, after climbing the large mountain wall, carefully fall down the first pit to your right. You will likely land on a crystal shard. Quickly fly back up.
Tips
  • You can re-attempt Adeleine's painting puzzle as many times as needed by returning to the previous section.
  • Be careful when falling into the pit in the fifth section; landing directly on the shard is key.
