Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn
He is the tenant in Apartment #301. Dom Woole will request Kirby to decorate it with the right furniture in order to invite him. Buster plays a game with Kirby in which he'll have to defeat a specific number of enemies in a given time while not taking hits. The player gets penalized five seconds each time Kirby is hit and also adds five seconds to the player's completion time, and if Kirby is hit with less than five seconds remaining, the player will fail instantly. Most of the time, Buster will give Kirby wallpaper with an enemy or boss on it.
