Checklist

It has been requested that image(s) be uploaded and added to this article. Remove this notice once the image(s) have been uploaded and applied.

The Checklist is a table of 120 objectives, one for each of the three modes in Kirby Air Ride.

Air Ride, Top Ride, and City Trial each possess their own individual checklists, all arranged in a 12 x 10 fashion. The individual objectives are placed in random locations, but the bottom right "block" is always labeled "Complete 100 Checklist Blocks", and unlocks a bonus video for that mode. 5 will provide Free Checks, which can be used on any objective, except the 100 checklist blocks objective. Others will provide unlockables, such as BGM and different Kirby colors.

The boxes start off a dark Template:Gray hue, and change color as their attached objectives are completed. As they change color, boxes adjacent to them turn light Template:Gray, and the player can see the actual objective, and try to complete it. When the objectives are completed, the box turns either green or red. Red boxes unlock a certain feature, vehicle, music, etc., besides revealing the objectives in adjacent boxes. Green boxes do not unlock anything. The five red boxes that provide free checks will build up a tower of five purple squares at the left of the checklist. These can be used to turn most squares purple, and count it as checked.

After all 120 boxes are checked in, the entire matrix turns golden. However, doing it the easy way, and using up the free checks is still identifiable, as there will be fewer than five purple boxes still present at the left, and boxes filled in with the free checks remain purple.

Attributes

Air Ride

Objectives in Air Ride usually consist of racing over a certain distance, on a certain course, or to complete a certain number of laps in a set time. In addition to BGM and Kirby colors, certain objectives will unlock Air Ride machines. Racing 100 laps is completely unique, in that it unlocks the final course.

Top Ride

Objectives are similar to those of Air Ride, but several involve not using items. In addition to BGM and Kirby colors, certain objectives will unlock items, camera angles, and item-changing rules.

City Trial

City Trial's objectives are completely unique because of the game style. They involve completing Stadium events with a certain score or time. Also, the top right and top left objectives are always labeled "Unlock Dragoon Parts A,B,and C" and "Unlock Hydra Parts X,Y,and Z". These objectives will unlock said vehicles in Free Run, and cannot be completed with a free check (unless the player used them on the parts objectives). 2 other objectives will unlock Meta Knight and King Dedede in Free Run. Several boxes unlock music.
