The 1-Up, also referred to as 1 Up, is a popular video game item made famous by the original Super Mario Bros. It rewards Kirby (or the playable character) with an extra life, or another chance to complete a level, stage, or game that they would not be able to after exhausting all previous lives. In the Kirby series especially, this item is a rare find, and it is in Kirby's best interest to obtain the 1-Up wherever it is found, regardless of the circumstances.
Unique to the Kirby franchise is in the collection of Stars towards achieving a 1-Up. The ratio of stars to 1-Up varies throughout Kirby's journeys, however, one of the largest amounts needed to garner the 1-Up are in Canvas Curse and Return to Dream Land, where a total of 100 standard yellow Stars is required like how in Super Mario Bros. you would need 100 coins for a free 1up. Kirby can also gain 1-Ups by playing various mini-games. For example, in Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, in the three Sub-Games Kirby can play during the regular storyline, when played in the storyline, give 3 1-Ups if Kirby got first, 2 if he got second, 1 if he got third, and none if he got last.
1-Ups may have different appearances, depending on what character is being controlled. For example, in the Meta Knightmare Sub-Game of Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, instead of Kirby being in the 1-Up, Meta Knight appears.
