Kirby: Canvas Curse worlds, hazards and Drawcia battle
Follow the painted worlds and prepare for the final encounter.
Edition covered
Original Nintendo DS release, called Kirby: Power Paintbrush in Europe. This is the 2D touch-controlled game, not Wii U’s Kirby and the Rainbow Curse.
Travel through seven three-stage worlds
The regular route moves through painted grasslands, volcanoes, water, mechanical areas and space. Each world changes how lines interact with the room’s hazards.

| 1 | Reddy Land | Plant Plain; Tiny Town; Ravine Road |
| 2 | Arange Gorge | Ghost Grounds; Growth Grasses; Mag Mount |
| 3 | Iello Adventure | Rift Ruin; Contrast Cave; Silver Submarine |
| 4 | Neo Greo | Machine Mansion; Dreamy Darkness; Paletto Polis |
| 5 | Bloo Hills | Cold Course; Dungeon Dome; Canvas Canyon |
| 6 | Omarine Zone | Collapse Castle; Volatile Volcano; Silent Seabed |
| 7 | Wonder Lilane | Frozen Fantasy; Mad Mechanism; Spectacle Space |
| 8 | The World of Drawcia | Final boss route |
Keep the map in the plan
The upper screen provides route information while the lower screen receives drawing input. Glance at the layout before Kirby rolls into a hidden turn or dead end.
| Check | Why it helps | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Ink meter | Long gaps consume the reserve | Refill before committing |
| Current power | Tap behavior may change | Test on safe ground |
| Enemy protection | Not every target is exposed | Stun or wait for an opening |
| Final boss phase | Patterns change during the fight | Reset your position between cycles |
Protect a safe recovery surface
Lava, spikes and moving machinery punish improvised drawing. Identify the next stable floor before spending ink on a long climb.
Learn Drawcia’s attack openings
The final world leads to Drawcia and then Drawcia Soul. Stun or counter the appropriate objects and attack during exposed windows instead of dashing into a protected target.
