| “ | Use medals at the Medal Swap. Medals hide everywhere. Swap them for prizes! | ” | — caption fromKirby: Canvas Curse after obtaining the firstMedal |
Medal Swap is a feature ofKirby: Canvas Curse, comparable to theCollection Room ofKirby & The Amazing Mirror andKirby: Squeak Squad. Medal Swap is accessible from the game mode menu and is available for browsing immediately. The rewards are not labeled prior to unlocking.Medals obtained elsewhere in the game are used in Medal Swap to buy newRainbow Lines, Songs,Life Boosts,Special Courses, and character balls.
Menu[edit]
The interface of Medal Swap is structured as a long drop-down list. The gray areas denote a reward that has been unlocked for purchase. The field of it breaks up more as medals are spent to obtain the reward. Solid blue fields indicate rewards that require a certain condition to be met before becoming available for purchase. The smaller field with a double digit number and appearance of a coin slot is where medals are deposited to pay towards the desired reward. Each tap on the slot costs one medal. Once deposited, medals cannot be refunded.
