"Welcome to Dream Land, a small and peaceful country situated on a far away
little star. In Dream Land the local pastime is a puzzle game called
"Avalanche." Kirby decided that since every Dream Lander plays the game, it
would be a great idea to have a countrywide competition to determine who is
the best player of all.

After months of organizing, the First Annual Dream Lander's Avalanche
Competition was finally announced. To be held at the Dream Fountain, this
would be the biggest event in the history of Dream Land!

All the Dream Landers have been practicing, and all plan to attend and
compete. Like Kirby, they have been dreaming sweet dreams of becoming the
Avalanche Champion and claiming the highly sought after "Dream Fountain Cup."

The rules for the competition are quite simple: Everyone will travel by foot
to the Dream Fountain. If, while on their journey, two Dream Landers happen
to meet, they must challenge each other to an Avalanche match. Only the
winner of the match may continue onward towards the Dream Fountain. In this
way, the number of competitors will be whittled down to a manageable size
before the final action at the Dream Fountain.

Can you help guide Kirby through the competition so he arrives successfully
at the Dream Fountain? Can he rise above the grizzled veterans and achieve
his dream of becoming the reigning champion? His fate is in your hands!"
