This sub-game is similar to and unlocked by the [[Kracko]] Boss Fight. After [[Kirby]] defeats [[Kracko]] twice, the game will be available in the Sub-Games menu of the game file. Block Attack plays much like a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakout_game Breakout game]. Any one of three difficulty levels can be chosen prior to starting to play, and information on scoring can be accessed as well. Kirby behaves as though he has the [[ball]] ability and bounces freely throughout the stage, ricocheting off of anything he contacts. In order to progress further into the stage, Kirby must defeat all of the [[enemies]] on screen before time or health are depleted.<ref>{{cite manual|quote=Defeat all the enemies to move on to the next stage.|game=Kirby Canvas Curse|page=20}}</ref> Even the subgame climaxes in a Kracko battle. | ||

The paddle generates a visible red line which will bounce Kirby back towards the targeted area. Although enemies subtract no health when struck, several obstacles that do can be found such as electric blocks, spiked walls, and exploding blocks. Generally stages have hidden [[Energy Drink]]s or in rare cases [[Maxim Tomato|Maxim tomatoes]] to replenish lost health. | ||

Each stage completion will add time to the clock. The time added seems to vary from stage to stage depending upon the difficult (+30, +60, and +90 seconds are commonly seen). | ||
Controlling Kirby's exact path is difficult, given the chaotic movements. The paddle can be used to an extent to reign in the chaos. Since Kirby will bounce off of it, the paddle can be used to limit his field of travel to the targeted area. Another use, although trickier to do, is to draw the paddle then swing it to knock Kirby at a near 90 degree angle. | Controlling Kirby's exact path is difficult, given the chaotic movements.

Level 3 uses extremely large stages with several bumpers, hazards, enemies in tighter quarters, and the sheer number of blocks needing to be cleared to progress has exponently increased. Level 3 continues even after defeating both [[Kracko]] and [[Kracko Jr.]] until either time or health are depleted. Time will be added to the clock for each stage cleared. However, obtaining an '''"A" rank''' is difficult. | ||

The blue blocks then derank to green dual starred blocks, followed by single star green blocks, and cracked blocks. | ||

The ranking system is in a cascading alphabetical format with sub-names for each rank given. The higher the score, the lower the alphabet letter will be and thus the higher the rank. Each Sub-game will record the top three scores for each level. Other than for measuring personal progress, and the medal reward for Level 3, the ranking solely exists for bragging rights. | ||
