Ravine Road is the third stage of Reddy Land in Kirby: Canvas Curse. The stage is presumably a path leading from Reddy Land to Arange Gorge. If the stages are played in their cardinal order, at the end of Ravine Road, Kirby will be given a choice of Bosses to challenge. The level's background is an amber, twilit sky overlooking a series of hills, cliffs, and waterfalls, rendered in a lineless "construction paper" style. The most noticeable features of the level are the floating cliff ledges. Kirby will need to do extensive air traveling along the "road".
Stage overview[edit]
Area / map | Description | Medal guide |
---|---|---|
The area steps up the difficulty with the sheer number of enemies, who often have a higher ground advantage. The open pits aren't at all hazardous, a gush of air blasts from them, preventing accidental death plunges. The area also alternates between tight space enemy confrontations and wide open spaces permitting enemy avoidance. The tight spaces are usually found in between high and low points of the underground sections. | The first medal can be found lodged in a small opening atop the ceiling as it opens off to the right. | |
Area 2 is as small as the others in Ravine Road. The open pits are larger, but still use a gush of air to push Kirby back up. From there, a path can be taken along the underside of a large landmass which has waterfalls and Gates which are opened using switches. Among the enemies in the area, the Missile ability can be obtained from a well hidden Bang-Bang. This area later appears as the Line Trial of Rainbow Run. | The second medal is located in a chamber in the ceiling of the region furthest right, where the waterfalls emanate from. To enter this chamber, the Missile ability is required. | |
This area starts off with a vertical descent by alternating between bomb-destructible blocks, and clear blocks that collapse or dissolve after contact. An optional bomb ledge housing a Wheelie can be opened to empower Kirby with the Wheel ability for the rest of his roadtrip. More collapsible blocks can be found closer to the goal doorway, the open pits beneath them have no in-rush of air and falling through will cost a life. This area also serves as the Time Trial of Rainbow Run. | The last medal can be found by taking the lower of two narrow tunnels along the middle of this area. It is nestled in a small pocket behind a Bomb Block barrier. |
