'''Medal Swap''' is a feature of ''[[Kirby: Canvas Curse]]'', comparable to the [[Collection Room]] of previous titles. Medal Swap is accessible from the game mode menu and is available for browsing immediately. The rewards are not labeled prior to unlocking. [[Medal]]s are earned in the main game by simply coming into contact with one. Each stage of each level offers a single, sometimes hidden medal. [[Rainbow Run]] courses offer medals based on completion of trial challenges. And the [[Sub-Game]]s ([[Block Attack]], [[Cart Run]], and [[Paint Panic]]) only offer a single medal for "A Rankings" in Level 3 of the challenge. The medals are used in Medal Swap to pay towards the cost of unlocking new [[Rainbow Line]]s, Songs, [[Vitality Heart|Life Boosts]], [[Special Course]]s, and [[Character Ball]]s.<ref>{{cite|Use the medals you earned in the Main Game and in Rainbow Run to get prizes hidden inside blocks.|''Kirby: Canvas Curse'' manual|page 21}}</ref>

— caption from Kirby: Canvas Curse after obtaining the first Medal

Medal Swap is a feature of Kirby: Canvas Curse, comparable to the Collection Room of previous titles. Medal Swap is accessible from the game mode menu and is available for browsing immediately. The rewards are not labeled prior to unlocking. Medals unlocked elsewhere in the game are used in Medal Swap to buy new Rainbow 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.

Inventory[edit]

The basic breakdown of the rewards are as follows:

  • Songs - Music that can be played in the Sound Test of the Options menu.
  • Lines - New lines replacing the Rainbow Line, can be toggled at the Options Menu at any time.
  • Life Boost - Adds one more bar to Kirby's health.
  • Courses - Adds a new Special Course for play in Rainbow Run.
