'''Crackity Hack''' is one of the [[Sub-Game]]s available for immediate play in ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]''. This sub-game at first seems a lot like [[Megaton Punch]]; however the powering up steps are rather different. Crackity Hack pits four [[Kirby]]s (pink, yellow, red, green) against one another in a rock breaking contest. The winner is determined by the depth of the crack through the ground.

Crackity Hack returns in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]'', where [[Bandana Waddle Dee]], [[King Dedede]], and [[Meta Knight]] can now be chosen as contestants, and Red Kirby is replaced with Blue. It is available to play in [[Merry Magoland]] or the [[Lor Starcutter]], though in the Lor, it needs to be unlocked by collecting 80 [[Energy Sphere]]s.

A series of four bar meters will rise, reach the top, then fall. The objective is to press the A button at (or as close as possible to) the top to power up Kirby's strength. The Kirbys will then jump up and come back down to strike the boulder. While downwards, a pair of crosshairs, one fixed and one falling, will line up momentarily. The objective of this step is to press the A button while the two are aligned.
A series of four bar meters will rise, reach the top, then fall. The objective is to press the A button at (or as close as possible to) the top to build up strength. The contestants will then jump up and prepare to punch. While in the air, a pair of crosshairs, one fixed and one falling, will line up momentarily. The objective of this step is to press the A button while the two are aligned. Once this step is complete, the contestants will fall and strike the boulder.


The following animation will seem like a race of the cracks. The weakest hit will travel the least and the strongest will go the furthest. If 999.00 is reached, the other side of the planet can be seen as the crack breaks through. (The ground appears at the top, while a night sky is on the lower portion of the screen.)
The following animation will seem like a race of the cracks. The weakest hit will travel the least and the strongest will go the furthest. If 999.00 (999.99 in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe'') is reached, the other side of the planet can be seen as the crack breaks through, viewed upside-down. In ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe'', this causes a flood of water to spout beneath a swimming [[Waddle Dee]], much to their surprise.
 
There are three levels of difficulty to this subgame. Higher difficulties cause the bars and crosshairs to move faster, and also adds more bars to fill in sequence. CPU opponents are also more precise on higher difficulties.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The game's official Japanese website has a [[Media:KatAM Japanese wallpaper 2.jpg|wallpaper]] based on Crackity Hack. This is also the case with the other two Sub-Games, [[Kirby Wave Ride]] and [[Speed Eaters]].

*The rocks to be broken in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]'' change depending on the level of difficulty, with Level 3 the rocks appearing to reference [[Popstar]] by having golden coloring and two sparkling rings orbiting them. Furthermore, this may also be a reference to [[Megaton Punch]], another game where Kirby is able to crack the ground by punching with great force.
*If the player refuses or misses the crosshair entirely in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe'', their character will flop onto the ground upon hitting the rock, with the rock being unscathed.
