Ripple Field is a level that Kirby visits in the Kirby's Dream Land trilogy. It is the third level of Kirby's Dream Land 2 and the second level of Kirby's Dream Land 3.

General Information

Ripple Field is part of the Rainbow Islands and is home to Kine the sunfish. It, just like any other islands and oceans based level, mostly involves swimming. It also has dark areas that can be lit up using Kine with the Spark ability. The level has underwater caverns with strong currents.

In Kirby's Dream Land 3, the level also comes complete with an iceberg and even a water temple. The boss battles here take place in a cave with water.

Kirby's Dream Land 2

Intro

Kirby is watching the fish from the seashore. Just then, Kine pokes his head out of the water, looking for food. Kirby throws him an apple, but then Kine jumps up and eats Kirby instead. It turns out that Kine was helping Kirby to inhale underwater.

Rainbow Drop

This Rainbow Drop is found in Stage 3. Go underwater to find a door. Enter the door. Use Spark (obtained in Stage 2) and Kine to light the dark room. Enter the hidden door. Inside is the Rainbow Drop. Stone is needed to break the Elemental Blocks. Exit the room and go through the stage. Nearby the end door is a Rocky. Inhale it and backtrack to the dark room. Re-enter the hidden door. Use Stone with Kine to destroy the barrier. This Rainbow Drop requires Kine in order to swim through currents. It does not, however, require Spark.
