The Tilt Bowl serves as a simple puzzle-solving device. When Kirby jumps into the bowl, the player will gain control over how it tilts. The item is gyro-controlled -- tilting the Nintendo 3DS left or right will cause the bowl itself to tilt that direction, and therefore pour the water contained in it. Every puzzle the item is used for involves pouring out the bowl's water to put out a massive fire or grow huge flowers (which contain items such as keys or stars).
