|The first Heart Star is given out by a large red Tulip with eyes. To get this piece, Kirby must venture through this stage without stepping on or otherwise harming any of the flower's buddies along the way.

|This green creature named Muchimuchi can be found in a side-chamber in Room 2 of this stage. To make it happy, [[ChuChu]] needs to extend her tentacle at it, by using her default 'inhale' move. This done correctly, Muchimuchi will give out a Heart Star at the end of the stage.

|{{main|Which Gordo was thrown?}}

In Room 3, after ascending the cliff, Kirby finds this pitcherman aside two rocky screens. He tosses a metal ball behind the screens, which transforms into a [[Gordo]] with a specific face in-between them - visible for only a very brief moment as such. Kirby has to then guess what the face looked like. This procedure is repeated twice more. If Kirby gets all three faces right, he will be able to collect a Heart Star from the pitcherman at the end of the stage.

|In Room 2, in the hollow stump, there are three shapes scattered around the place: a triangle, a circle, and a square/rectangle. Kirby will need to collect all of these, then head to the stage exit with them. Done correctly, the clown at the end will be seen juggling them, and will give out a Heart Star.

|There are three side-chambers in the walkway past [[Pitch]] and [[Nago]]. Kirby needs to enter each of these with Pitch and the [[Cleaning|Clean]] ability, and use that ability to lob water at each of the stems in these rooms to make them grow into tulips. If all six tulips grow and are not subsequently damaged, Kirby can obtain a Heart Star from another tulip at the end of the stage.

|In Room 3, after leaving the water tunnel section, there is a small suspended island with a door on it. In this door is this parasol-headed creature named Bakasa. To please it, Kirby will need to bring [[Kine]] and the [[Parasol]] ability. If Kirby activates this move next to Bakasa, it will begin to burst out laughing, as Kine and Kirby doing this move resembles it greatly. This done, it will grant Kirby a Heart Star when he reaches the end of the stage.

|{{center|[[File:KDL3 Heart Star Character 9 Sprite.png]]}}

|After ascending the dark tower in an auto-scrolling section, Kirby needs to find a hidden doorway on the left. This will take him on a path to do battle with [[Captain Stitch]]. After defeating this Gordo, Kirby will need to gain the [[Needle]] ability from the fallen [[Mid-Boss]], then use it to free Kogamugaeru down a hallway. After the toad is obtained, Kirby just needs to reach the end of the stage to reunite it with its parent, named Gamugaeru, and get the Heart Star. Secret doors are not visible, so Kirby must guess where they are.

|[[Ripple Field - Stage 6]]

|{{center|[[File:KDL3 Heart Star Character 10 Sprite.png]]}}

|This creature can be found in a side-chamber in the hall after the [[Zebon]] challenge, in an underwater grotto. It is sitting next to a block formation in a squared diamond shape, similar to the shape of the creature itself. In an adjacent room is a 5x5 arrangement of [[Star Block]]s. Kirby needs to break off the corners of this arrangement so that it matches the shape of the creature and the block formation in the first room. Once this is done, Kirby will receive a Heart Star from HB-002 when they meet again at the end of the stage.

|[[Sand Canyon - Stage 1]]

|{{center|[[File:KDL3 Heart Star Character 11 Sprite.png]]}}

|In the very first area, Kirby will encounter both red tulips like the ones in Grass Land, and brown Poison Mushrooms. Unlike in that stage, Kirby is actually supposed to trample the tulips, but leave the mushrooms untouched. Done correctly, Kirby will receive a Heart Star from another mushroom at the end of the stage.

|-

|[[Sand Canyon - Stage 2]]

|{{center|[[File:KDL3 Heart Star Character 12 Sprite.png]]}}

|In the sandstone tower, past the guarding [[Bukiset]] a janitor named Auntie can be seen sweeping the floor. She has this room covered, but she'd be grateful if Kirby went and swept up the other two that have grown rather dusty. Naturally, the [[Cleaning|Clean]] ability is what Kirby will want for this task. Should he clean up both other floors, Auntie will give him a Heart Star as thanks at the end of the stage.

|[[Sand Canyon - Stage 3]]

|{{center|[[File:KDL3 Heart Star Character 13 Sprite.png]]}}

|{{Main|How many of the same face are there?}}

Kirby will bump into this egg-shaped creature in a separate chamber in this stage. It presents a game, where it blows a bubble, causing a horde of Gordos in the air to briefly show faces. Kirby has to then guess how many Gordos of a specified sort there were. This goes on for three rounds. If Kirby gets all three guesses right, he will be given a Heart Star by Caramelo at the end of the stage.

|{{center|[[File:KDL3 Heart Star Character 14 Sprite.png]]}}

|In the last area of this stage, a bunch of flowers resembling this one can be found, but are covered in soot. To clean them off, Kirby will need not only the [[Cleaning|Clean]] ability, but [[Coo]]'s or [[Rick]]'s help as well. Kirby will need to brush off all of the flowers, but should be careful not to trample them in the process. If successful, Kirby can receive the heart-star from the last flower at the end.

|In the very last area, Kirby will find this small chick named Piyo hanging from a large red balloon. The goal here is to pop the balloon, allowing the chick to get back down, but only a variant of the [[Needle]] ability will do the trick. This done, the chick will reunite with its mother (Keko) who will give Kirby a Heart Star at the end of the stage.

|{{Main|How many of the same color are there?}}

Kirby will bump into this strange tri-colored creature along his path up the cloud-tops. Here, they will play a short [[Sub-Game]]. This game consists of three rounds, and in each one, a number of [[Gordo]]s will appear briefly from behind a screen. These Gordos come in four different colors. Once they disappear, Kirby then has to guess how many of a particular color there were. Kirby has to get all three guesses right in order to receive a Heart Star at the end of the stage.

|[[Cloudy Park - Stage 4 (Kirby's Dream Land 3)|Cloudy Park - Stage 4]]

|{{center|[[File:KDL3 Heart Star Character 17 Sprite.png]]}}

|In the room directly following the fight with [[Jumper Shoot]], a small orange-looking creature called Mikarin can be seen sitting on a platform against a strong current of wind. In order to reach it, Kirby will need help from [[Coo]]. Once Mikarin is collected, Kirby then has to reach the end of the stage to reunite it with Kagami Mocchi. Once there, Mikarin will be sitting on top of Kagami Mocchi, and they will gift Kirby a Heart Star.

|In a side-chamber from the hall full of [[Mopoo]], HB-007 can be found. It is standing on its head. In the room adjacent is a 5x5 array of Star Blocks. Kirby has to shape this arrangement by removing select blocks from the grouping, but Kirby has to make sure the shape is the right way up. This done correctly, the creature, now right side up, will give Kirby a Heart Star at the end of the stage.

|In the third area of this stage, on a snowy hillside, several daisies can be found frozen solid. Kirby has to use the [[Burning]]  ability to thaw them out, but he has to be careful not to trample them afterward. Once all of them are thawed, he can pick up a Heart Star from another daisy at the end of the stage.

|[[Iceberg - Stage 4 (Kirby's Dream Land 3)|Iceberg - Stage 4]]

|{{center|[[File:KDL3 Heart Star Character 20 Sprite.png]]}}

|To get this Heart Star, Kirby has to recover the lost shell of a snail. It can be found by collecting the [[Burning]] ability and [[Coo]], then breaking through the ice block tunnel. Along this tunnel, a side-door can be found accessible only by means of these two elements together. From there, Kirby has to alternate between Coo and [[ChuChu]] to break through more ice barricades and reach an area where the shell can be found. From there, Kirby just needs to reach the end of the stage.

|For the last Heart Star, Kirby will need to progress through this stage, collecting eight feathers along the way. These turn out to make up an angel's wings. To do this, Kirby will need to use every [[Copy Ability]] to break through the appropriate [[Block]]s. The needed abilities are, in order:
