Color coin
- Not to be confused withColored coin.
Acolor coin,[1] also known as aColored Coin[2] orChallenge Coin,[3] is a special type ofStar Coin that is found inSuper Mario Run. There are three types of color coins: thePink Coin, thePurple Coin, and theBlack Coin. Collecting a color coin is astylish move, so doing so creates blue stars that contribute to aCoin Rush in the Toad Rally mode.
Each course in the World Tour mode has five of each coin. (The tutorial,How to Play, only has Pink Coins). However, the colors of coins do not coexist. Each course has a layout for Pink Coins, a more difficult layout for Purple Coins, and a even more difficult layout for Black Coins. The layout is selected before entering the course, but at first they only have access to the Pink Coins. When the player gets all coins of a type in a course, the icon for that coin is displayed with a crown. The first time the player collects all the Pink Coins in a course in a single run, that course's Purple Coins are unlocked. The same is true for the collection of Purple Coins, unlocking Black Coins.
Each color coin is worth ten coins, which are only added to the coin counter during the results screen. After the first time the player collects all five of the same color coin in a single run, the player is rewarded with twoRally Tickets. Collecting all the Pink Coins in World Tour mode allows the player to purchase thePink Coin Pipe from the Shop in Kingdom Builder mode and place them in the Mushroom Kingdom. This pipe can be interacted with to access the Special CourseChase the Snaking Coins. The same is true for collecting all of the Purple Coins and Black Coins, which unlocks thePurple Coin Pipe andBlack Coin Pipe which unlocks the Special CoursesPiranha Plant Field andMake the Cut!, respectively. How to Play's Pink Coins are excluded from this total. Each Special Course only has the type of coin that was used to unlock the pipe, and these coins are also excluded from the total.
Courses inWorld ★ contain identical coins under different names: ★Pink Coins, ★Purple Coins, and ★Black Coins. These coins are tracked separately from their non-Star counterparts. For collecting every ★Black Coin, which requires collecting all of ★Pink and ★Purple Coins to unlock the ★Black Coins, the player is allowed to purchase theGold Star Pipe. This pipe can be interacted with to access the courseRed Block Run, which in turn has a set of ★Black Coins that are not tracked. (These coins may actually be regular Black Coins.)
Pink Coins are in Toad Rally courses, often in similar position that color coins of any type have in World Tour courses. Collecting a Pink Coin causes aToad to cheer for the player. Additionally, the Pink Coins each player collected are visible in the summary displayed for the round after its conclusion but before judging..
Color coins do not appear in Remix 10. However, the locations of that mode'sBonus Medals sometimes correlate to the locations of color coins.
