===Stages===
Prior to the release of the game, a contest called [[Wanted Kisekae]] was held where participants could send in illustrations of [[Stuff]] to [[Nintendo]] and have the chance to have their drawings featured in the credits or made into one of the 20 Special Stuff in the final game. There were six winning entrants.

==Story==
{{spoiler}}
The story of ''Densetsu no Starfy 4'' takes place some time after the events of ''[[Densetsu no Starfy 3]]''.
 
Back in [[Pufftop|Pufftop Palace]], times were once again peaceful. [[Starly]] was drawing pictures on the carpet, while [[Starfy]] and [[Papa Star]] were resting. It was finally all nice and quiet. Suddenly however, [[Moe]] ran through the doors of Pufftop Palace, saying there was serious trouble. Papa Star asked "what's the matter?" and wondered whether Moe had come to play. Moe said there was [[Mattel|a girl]] at the entrance of Pufftop. Starly thought Moe was teasing. Moe called Starly a 'fool'. The girl was then let into the throne room. The girl thanked Pufftop for their help and introduced herself as [[Mattel]] from the [[Amiy Kingdom]]. [[Mama Star]] wondered where the Amiy Kingdom was and noted that Mattel had come from quite far away. Mattel begged everyone to help save the Amiy Kingdom.
 
A scene shows the events of the Amiy Kingdom before the crisis. It reveals that there is a mystical stone known as the [[Mon Amour Stone]] that was passed down with care as a protector of the Amiy Kingdom. The residents of the Amiy Kingdom lived happily in peace, guarded by the Mon Amour Stone. One day however, the Mon Amour Stone was stolen by [[Degil|someone]]! The thief caused calamity across the Amiy Kingdom with the force of the Mon Amour Stone, transforming the [[Amiy Castle]] into a castle of her own and setting buildings on fire. The thief was surely plotting an evil plan against the kingdom of some sort. Mattel, who is a maid from the Amiy Kingdom had somehow escaped.
 
While Starfy was sleeping, Starly asked Mattel why she had come to Pufftop. Mattel replied that she had previously heard of the success of [[Starfy]] and that Prince Starfy was brave to have defeated huge evil. Mattel asks everyone in the area to please ask Starfy to save the Amiy Kingdom. Starly then wakes Starfy up and tells him to help Mattel. Moe then gets angry and argues that another adventure is unfavorable. Moe says from now on Starfy and him are going to play and Starfy brings out a [[Nintendo DS]]. Starly goes behind Moe's back and teases Moe saying he is stupid as usual. Starly starts to talk about [[Ruby]], so Moe reconsiders and starts to get excited about meeting her in the Amiy Kingdom. Moe says they should go and hear what the [[Old Man Lobber]] has to say first. Mama Star then tells Starfy, Starly and Moe that Old Man Lobber has a [[Lobber's Villa|villa]] in the Amiy Kingdom. Mama Star asks Starfy, Starly and Moe to be back by dinner.
 
Meanwhile, the thief is overlooking Starfy, Starly and Moe using the power of the Mon Amour Stone. She is revealed to be an evil serpent-like creature, who considers Starfy as her main enemy. Starfy, Starly and Moe jump off of Pufftop and land into [[Lobber's Villa]], straight into Old Man Lobber's bonsai, ruining it. This upsets Old Man Lobber who misses his "cute bonsai". Old Man Lobber mentions the Mon Amour Stone as a mystical stone in the Amiy Kingdom and starts thinking about it, so Starly wonders if someone had stolen it. Starfy has unfortunately forgot most of his abilities, so Old Man Lobber suggests that Starfy should relearn his basic abilities using the signboards in the first level. Old Man Lobber asks Starfy to find a [[Repair Kit]] to fix his bonsai.
 
Moe suggests that they should first meetup with people in the [[City]], so Starfy, Starly and Moe talk to the [[Mermaid]] who tells them about saving, a [[Warp Jizou]] and [[King Warp Jizou]] who tell them about the [[Warp Jizou (ability)|Warp Jizou]] and [[Return to the City]] abilities.
 
After Starfy, Starly and Moe find the Repair Kit, they use it to fix Old Man Lobber's bonsai. Old Man Lobber says that he does not know who stole the Mon Amour Stone yet, and advises that in order to track down the culprit they should go to a variety of Cities and listen to what everyone has to say. Old Man Lobber reminds Starfy about [[Stuff]] and tells him that various dress-up items can be viewed from the Pause Menu, and that they can be obtained by finishing favors from other characters. Old Man Lobber then gives Starfy, Starly and Moe the [[Densetsu no Starfy 4/Stuff#Clothes|Shimashima Swimsuit]].
 
Starfy, Starly and Moe must complete stages and solve the problems of various characters, including familiar characters who have visited the Amiy Kingdom and characters that they have never seen before. In the process they will collect Stuff, gather information about the thief, learn new abilities, including magical powers called "[[Spill]]", defeat bosses sent by the thief and visit a variety of stages. Their ultimate goal is to defeat the thief and bring peace back to the Amiy Kingdom.

Story

The story of Densetsu no Starfy 4 takes place some time after the events of Densetsu no Starfy 3.

Back in Pufftop Palace, times were once again peaceful. Starly was drawing pictures on the carpet, while Starfy and Papa Star were resting. It was finally all nice and quiet. Suddenly however, Moe ran through the doors of Pufftop Palace, saying there was serious trouble. Papa Star asked "what's the matter?" and wondered whether Moe had come to play. Moe said there was a girl at the entrance of Pufftop. Starly thought Moe was teasing. Moe called Starly a 'fool'. The girl was then let into the throne room. The girl thanked Pufftop for their help and introduced herself as Mattel from the Amiy Kingdom. Mama Star wondered where the Amiy Kingdom was and noted that Mattel had come from quite far away. Mattel begged everyone to help save the Amiy Kingdom.

A scene shows the events of the Amiy Kingdom before the crisis. It reveals that there is a mystical stone known as the Mon Amour Stone that was passed down with care as a protector of the Amiy Kingdom. The residents of the Amiy Kingdom lived happily in peace, guarded by the Mon Amour Stone. One day however, the Mon Amour Stone was stolen by someone! The thief caused calamity across the Amiy Kingdom with the force of the Mon Amour Stone, transforming the Amiy Castle into a castle of her own and setting buildings on fire. The thief was surely plotting an evil plan against the kingdom of some sort. Mattel, who is a maid from the Amiy Kingdom had somehow escaped.

While Starfy was sleeping, Starly asked Mattel why she had come to Pufftop. Mattel replied that she had previously heard of the success of Starfy and that Prince Starfy was brave to have defeated huge evil. Mattel asks everyone in the area to please ask Starfy to save the Amiy Kingdom. Starly then wakes Starfy up and tells him to help Mattel. Moe then gets angry and argues that another adventure is unfavorable. Moe says from now on Starfy and him are going to play and Starfy brings out a Nintendo DS. Starly goes behind Moe's back and teases Moe saying he is stupid as usual. Starly starts to talk about Ruby, so Moe reconsiders and starts to get excited about meeting her in the Amiy Kingdom. Moe says they should go and hear what the Old Man Lobber has to say first. Mama Star then tells Starfy, Starly and Moe that Old Man Lobber has a villa in the Amiy Kingdom. Mama Star asks Starfy, Starly and Moe to be back by dinner.

Meanwhile, the thief is overlooking Starfy, Starly and Moe using the power of the Mon Amour Stone. She is revealed to be an evil serpent-like creature, who considers Starfy as her main enemy. Starfy, Starly and Moe jump off of Pufftop and land into Lobber's Villa, straight into Old Man Lobber's bonsai, ruining it. This upsets Old Man Lobber who misses his "cute bonsai". Old Man Lobber mentions the Mon Amour Stone as a mystical stone in the Amiy Kingdom and starts thinking about it, so Starly wonders if someone had stolen it. Starfy has unfortunately forgot most of his abilities, so Old Man Lobber suggests that Starfy should relearn his basic abilities using the signboards in the first level. Old Man Lobber asks Starfy to find a Repair Kit to fix his bonsai.

Moe suggests that they should first meetup with people in the City, so Starfy, Starly and Moe talk to the Mermaid who tells them about saving, a Warp Jizou and King Warp Jizou who tell them about the Warp Jizou and Return to the City abilities.

After Starfy, Starly and Moe find the Repair Kit, they use it to fix Old Man Lobber's bonsai. Old Man Lobber says that he does not know who stole the Mon Amour Stone yet, and advises that in order to track down the culprit they should go to a variety of Cities and listen to what everyone has to say. Old Man Lobber reminds Starfy about Stuff and tells him that various dress-up items can be viewed from the Pause Menu, and that they can be obtained by finishing favors from other characters. Old Man Lobber then gives Starfy, Starly and Moe the Shimashima Swimsuit.

Starfy, Starly and Moe must complete stages and solve the problems of various characters, including familiar characters who have visited the Amiy Kingdom and characters that they have never seen before.
