The game received an official re-release on the Nintendo Switch Online service on June 5, 2023.

[1] The game begins with Kirby napping on a cloud, when he is awakened as a Waddle Dee walks by, carrying a round pinball-like bumper.

Suspicious of the King's intentions, Kirby hops on a warp star and follows him, determined to find out what he is up to.

This will unlock the bonus worlds, where they are slightly harder versions, and players start with less time.

When the timer drops below 50 seconds, an alarm sounds, warning the player to hurry up and finish the level, and the music that was previously playing changes to a more fast-paced version.

[5] It debuted at number four by the American market research company NPD TRSTS for the month of April 2001.

Originally planned for release in May 2002,[18] the game was retitled as Roll-O-Rama, replacing Kirby with a marble ball.
