Illusion Islands

Illusion Islands is Revenge of the King's response to Spring Breeze's Float Islands. It follows Purple Plants and comes before Crash Clouds.

General Information
Illusion Islands is a small chain of melancholy islands off the coast of purple Plants. It is a shady place that has a large structure not unlike Castle Lololo. It also has a large network of caverns to explore as well. Like all levels in Revenge of the King, the enemies and bosses are significantly harder than their Spring Breeze counterparts. The esteemed "HAL Room" also makes an appearance in this level (see corresponding section below).

The name "Illusion Islands" may be a reference to the Aleutian Islands, a chain of islands that extend from Alaska.

The HAL Room
The HAL Room is a secret area that appears exclusively in this level. To enter the HAL Room, Kirby must first have either the Stone or Hammer ability. After making it to the veranda of the castle, the player comes across a stake protruding from the ground. Pounding this down destroys a chain of bricks in the ground, leading to secret "door in the ground". Inside in this room is Mr. Tick Tock, some items, and a large congregation of Star Blocks spelling out the word "HAL".
