Kirby's Adventure Part 21 walkthrough: Beat the hammer mini-boss, find secret doors, and master the Bomb Rally sub-game.
- 1Engage the large mini-boss wielding a hammer. He attacks with a downward hammer slam that leaves stars on the ground for 1.5 seconds, and throws coconuts. Inhale the coconuts to spit them back at him. Collect the stars he leaves after his hammer slam to use as projectiles. The Sword ability is also effective if used quickly.
- 2After defeating the mini-boss, inhale and swallow him to obtain the Hammer ability.
- 3Climb the ladder to the right and smash the silver block.
- 4Go down and to the far left to smash the bomb, which causes water to appear in the lower area.
- 5Go up and defeat the Cutter enemy to obtain its Peppy Tonic.
- 6Return to where the bomb was and push up to reveal a secret door.
- 7Collect the falling 1-Up inside.
- 8Go through the door on the right to find a Maxim Tomato and a Laser enemy.
- 9Enter the left room and defeat the Fire enemy.
- 10Position yourself on the middle platform and shoot the right corner of the first floor level so the projectile bounces and hits the fuse.
- 11Quickly jump into the cannon.
- 12Step on the giant switch to activate a secret Bomb Rally sub-game.
- 13Proceed through the door that appears and continue upwards past normal enemies.
- 14At the end, defeat the normal brooming enemy and board the Warp Star.
- 15Travel past normal enemies and platforms to reach the final door.
- The hammer mini-boss is less powerful than he appears. Use the stars he leaves after his hammer slam as projectiles.
- If you have the Sword ability, it can be very effective against the mini-boss if used swiftly.
SUB-GAME - BOMB RALLY:
This sub-game is slightly more challenging than previous difficulties. Be aware that bombs can be knocked back towards you if you aren't paying attention. If the speed becomes too high, you can slow it down by not hitting the bomb as quickly or as hard, though it will likely speed up again later.
IV. FOURTH LEVEL:
- 1From the start, you can go down or straight ahead to reach the bottom. Going down from the beginning is quicker.
- 2At the bottom, destroy the bomb to enter a new room.
- 3Destroy the first block you see.
- 4Acquire the Beam ability from a Beam enemy.
- 5Go up and defeat the Cutter enemy, then swim under spikes to get a Peppy Tonic.
- 6Head left, descend the brown platforms, and collect three 1-Ups.
- 7Return to the near beginning, go down, and destroy the enemy with the bomb underneath it, then destroy the bomb.
- 8Go back to where you first got the Beam ability and continue further down.
- 9Keep going left, defeating Cutter and Sword enemies.
- 10Destroy the next bomb.
- 11Continue left underwater, following small platforms upwards.

- 22Jump at the end and enter the door.

SUB-GAME - KIRBY'S AIR GRIND:
