? Hole
“ | Something strange may appear when Kirby enters one of these mysterious holes. | ” | — Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble Instruction Booklet (North American print), page 18. |
? Hole[1] is a floor-bound object which appears in Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble. It resembles a shallow bowl-shaped depression in the ground with a blue hue and a question mark inset. Kirby can roll into this to make various things happen, including the following:
- Displaying hints to the player, similar to Hint Boards.
- Making star pieces appear.
- Making a Balloon appear.
- Triggering a roulette of items, allowing Kirby to obtain one of them.
After activating a ? Hole, Kirby will be launched back out in a similar manner to a Jump Hole. Some ? Holes will also change to an orange hue after being used once to signify that they cannot be used again.
