The Dimension Mirror^{[Japanese title]} is the tenth and final level in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror. It is unlocked when Kirby collects all of the Mirror Shards from defeating the Bosses in each level of the game. When all the shards have been collected, the Dimension Mirror is restored, allowing the four Kirbys to face Dark Meta Knight and vanquish Dark Mind.

Overview[edit]

The realm inside the Dimension Mirror is split up into nine areas. At the end of each platforming area is a mirror-shaped portal that teleports the Kirbys to the next area. The first area is where Dark Meta Knight makes his final appearance in the game. The area has circular purple clouds looming above everything which stretch across the entire length of the sky. There also seem to be the ruins of a coliseum in the background, which is similar to the intact coliseum of the Central Circle in Rainbow Route.

After defeating Dark Meta Knight, the Kirbys are sucked into an eerie portal, and Meta Knight tosses his sword in after them. In the next area, Kirby is prompted to pick up the sword, after which Dark Mind appears for a fight. Dark Mind must be battled four times in slightly varying environments. In between each battle is a room which contains a series of puzzles to solve, as well as enemies and items to utilize. The prompt to grab the sword will appear at the start of each phase if Kirby loses the sword in a previous room. After the fourth defeat, Dark Mind assumes his true form for one more much longer fight. As this fight begins, Shadow Kirby appears to give Kirby back Master if he lost it earlier.

Once Dark Mind is defeated in his true form, Kirby takes off after him on his Warp Star and has one last showdown against him, which transitions to the game's credits. Once these end, Dark Mind is finally defeated, and the game is complete.

Areas[edit]

The Mirror has nine areas inside, gone through in order:
