“ | Deflect the ball with the paddle, and try to shoot it into your opponent's goal while protecting your own goal. You will get one point for each goal you score, and your number of lives will increase in accordance with the points you get. You have three chances in each Air Hockey game. | ” | — Kirby's Block Ball Virtual Console manual, page 11 |
Air Hockey is one of the four bonus games in Kirby's Block Ball. It can be accessed by touching a Warp Star in a regular round.
The game pits Kirby against a UFO in a giant air hockey ring in a best of three match. The goal is to hit the ball past the opponent's paddle to score a point. To do this, Kirby can position himself left and right, as well as up and down the board to an extent. If the unknown reader presses A when hitting the ball, it will go faster.
Once the game is over, a number of 1-Ups will be rewarded based on the outcome. These are as follows:
- 2-0 favor UFO: No reward
- 2-1 favor UFO: 1-Up
- 2-1 favor Kirby: 2-Up
- 2-0 favor Kirby: 3-Up
