Little Woods[Japanese title] is an enemy in Kirby Mass Attack, appearing in Green Grounds - Stage 8. It is essentially a smaller version of Whispy Woods, and sits in place intent on blocking Kirby's path.
Little Woods has one of two methods for attacking. It can either blow air at the Kirbys to knock them back, or shoot its nose into a spike to try and hurt them. To defeat it, the Kirbys need to slam into Little Woods' trunk again and again to chip it away. The Kirbys can also dig into Little Woods' canopy to remove that, which may reveal a hidden object. Defeating Little Woods confers 100 points onto the player.
Little Woods also appears in Kirby Brawlball, defending Whispy Woods, and in Strato Patrol EOS, where it serves as a non-attacking obstacle.
Little Woods was not given a name outside of the Japanese version of the game, through Daroach does mention them where he generically refers to them as "trees".
Miscellaneous flavor text[edit]
- "Rough stuff, taking on tough trees. Did you know that you can give trees a good body slam to put them in their place? Good luck with that." --Daroach, in Kirby Mass Attack
- "In one of the darkest woods around here, the trees are very mean spirited. One of them has something useful on top of its head. I'm not saying that it's a medal... But it could help you find a medal. Be sure to search its leafy noggin before you take out its trunk, or else you won't find it." --Daroach, in Kirby Mass Attack
Trivia[edit]
- Daroach states that two Little Woods guarding a Skull Key in Green Grounds are "tight with the Skull Gang".[1]
