The DS stylus has been magically
infused with the power to paint. Players draw paths and stun
enemies to guide Kirby™ through an adventure spanning seven
massive worlds.
Kirby has been turned into a ball, so rainbow paths are the only
way he can find power-ups and reach the gates of each world.
Draw loops to make him speed up, make ramps to jump danger and
draw walls to block laser beams and cannon blasts.
Touch enemies to stun them, then tap Kirby to dash into them and
copy their abilities. Turn into Wheel Kirby, Burning Kirby,
Stone Kirby and many more.
Try tough challenges in all seven worlds, take on bosses in
unique battles or play mini-games.
Game Storyline : An evil witch
turns Dream Land into a "picture" world, and when
Kirby confronts her, she uses her magic to turn him into a ball.
Luckily, he finds a magic paintbrush she left behind and uses it
to turn the DS stylus into a magic item capable of drawing
rainbow paths. Kirby then sets out to regain his shape and save
Dream Land .
Characters : Kirby, Meta Knight,
King Dedede, Kracko, Paint Roller, Waddle Dee, Waddle Doo and
more familiar enemies.
How to progress through the game
: Use the stylus to draw paths to guide Kirby through each level
or to tap enemies to stun them. Break blocks and draw walls to
avoid danger as Kirby heads for the gate of each stage. After
defeating all three stages in each of the seven worlds, players
must win a boss battle against King Dedede, Kracko or Paint
Roller to open up the next world.
Special
powers/weapons/moves/features : By dashing into enemies (or
running into them while they're stunned), Kirby will copy their
abilities. Every ability has a unique power – Burning Kirby
can blaze a horizontal trail at high speed, Stone Kirby can
plunge invincibly through the water and Wheel Kirby can cruise
at high speeds to launch to distant areas.
