Egg Engines is the sixth level in Kirby's Return to Dream Land and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe.

General Information[]

Egg Engines is the first level of the game to take place on Halcandra, taking place after Kirby and company crash land in the Lor Starcutter on the planet. It a highly-mechanized and industrial area on one of the many plateaus of Halcandra, with most of the terrain covered in metal construction work, machines, and hazardous terrain and structures, reminiscent of planet Mekkai's surroundings. Its skyline is dominated by large buildings and steel girders from end to end, and behind that looms Halcandra's volcano in Dangerous Dinner. The parts Kirby ventures through appear to be a factory of some sort, as they are filled with conveyor belts and moving parts. From its ground sprouts what appears to be living mechanical flowers occasionally. There are no visible residents, and the city looks completely abandoned.

Halcandran equivalents of Planet Popstar's enemies are first introduced within stages in Egg Engines. Most of them are simply of different color, but there are a few curiously different ones, including the Halcandle Dee and Halcandle Armor Dee. Kirby can use Super Abilities to clear the way in some stages, revealing dimensional rifts.

Egg Engines contains six stages. The mid-boss of the first stage is Ice Sphere Doomer, the mid-boss of the second stage is Dubior, the mid-bosses of the third stage are King Doo, Moundo and Ice Sphere Doomer, and the mid-boss of the fourth stage is Kibble Blade. The boss of Egg Engines is Metal General.

Stage 5 contains the game's second hidden HAL room, which detracts from the tradition of a Broom Hatter sweeping the letter "L", and instead has a Halcandle Dee pacing on it. It contains the Whip, Water, Leaf, and Spear Copy Essences.
