In this game, [[Kirby]] has an opportunity to obtain bonuses, from simple points to helpful items such as [[Food]] and [[1-Up]]s. The nature of the game varies depending on the title it appears in, but the premise is usually the same, to have the player press the A button (or other button, as appropriate) at the right time to obtain the desired bonus. | ||

The Goal Game debuted in this title. Here, Kirby is dropped onto a spring, and must release at an appropriate time to jump as high as possible. There are seven different layers of clouds that Kirby can land on, with higher layers providing better bonuses. Layer 6 provides 100 points, layer 5 provides 300 points, layer 4 provides 800 points, layer 3 provides 2,000 points, layer 2 provides 5,000 points and the top layer provides [[1-Up]]s instead, delivered by another Kirby with the [[UFO]] ability. After landing on a platform, Kirby will do his signature dance, doing a longer one if he lands on the highest platform. | The Goal Game debuted in this title.

This Goal Game is practically identical to the one from ''Kirby's Adventure''. However, instead of points and 1-Ups, Kirby and his companions are awarded Point Stars instead. Up to four players can take part in this Goal Game simultaneously, on their own sections of platforms. | This Goal Game is practically identical to the one from ''Kirby's Adventure''.

The Goal Game in this title resembles the one from ''Kirby Super Star'', but functions more like the one in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land''. Kirby is placed into a cannon and is fired into the background, colliding with aerial enemies along the way. Landing on the far spots nets Kirby [[Keychain]]s in addition to the usual bonuses. | The Goal Game in this title resembles the one from ''Kirby Super Star'', but functions more like the one in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land''.

At the end of each non-boss stage is a roulette wheel of eight spinning orbs containing various items. Kirby has to collide with one of the orbs in order to obtain the bonus inside. Bonuses include [[Point Star]]s, [[1-Up]]s and entries for the [[Secret Diary]]. | At the end of each non-boss stage is a roulette wheel of eight spinning orbs containing various items.

The goal game in this title is very similar to the one in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'', albeit with a few changes. Firstly, instead of using a cloud trampoline, Kirby and his friends utilize a stone platform held up by a [[Popon]], which turns magenta if the timing is perfect. Second, only human-controlled friends get their own separate platforms, with [[CPU]] friends sharing with the human players. Third, reaching the top spot after the jump nets the participant a [[Picture Piece]]. | The goal game in this title is very similar to the one in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'', albeit with a few changes.
