| {{quote|As you pick up beads, your Bead Gauge will fill up. As your beads accumulate, you will reach certain medal markers.

| | '''Beads''' are items which can be collected in ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn]]''. They serve a similar function to [[Point Star]]s in that they are the main collectable item in any given stage in the game. Beads can be found floating in the air, hidden behind objects, or from certain enemies and bosses when damaged/defeated. Each type of bead is worth a different number of points, which are needed to earn [[Medal]]s in the game, along with certain extra patches. Each stage has a specific bead score threshold for its medals and/or patches which Kirby needs to meet by collecting enough beads. If Kirby is hit or falls into a hazard such as a [[void]], he will lose beads, and may or may not be able to collect them up again afterward depending on circumstances. |

| Typically, to gain beads from common enemies, Kirby will need to toss something into them, as a regular [[Yarn Whip]] is typically ineffective (with the exception of [[Sneak Sack]]s). Additional beads will drop if more [[Enemy|enemies]]/objects (such as [[Bow Waddle Dee]]'s bow) are defeated with a single strike. Enemies which continually spawn will not yield beads regardless of how they are defeated, presumably to prevent potentially infinite bead scores. Certain enemies, such as [[Ooki]], will drop beads without having been defeated first. Beads that are dropped from enemies (or Kirby and [[Prince Fluff]]) will eventually disappear if not picked up.

| Additionally, Kirby will gain additional bead points every time he collects 50 individual beads equal to the number he has collected since last getting hit (or starting the stage). | | Additionally, Kirby will gain additional bead points if he collects a large amount of individual beads. The amount needed and the bonus incurred varies per stage. |

| At the end of a stage, Kirby can play the [[Goal Game]] to potentially earn more beads, equal to the number of stars on the panel highlighted times 100. On the results screen, additional beads are also awarded equal to the bead streak (largest amount of beads collected between getting hit) and 100 beads are awarded for each piece of treasure collected. | | At the end of a stage, Kirby can play the [[Goal Game]] to potentially earn more beads, equal to the number of stars on the panel highlighted times 100.

| ===In Dedede Gogogo & Slash & Bead=== | | ==Trivia== |
| Special variants of beads exist in the ''[[Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn]]''-exclusive [[Sub-Game]]s [[Dedede Gogogo]] and [[Slash & Bead]]. Regular beads in these stages are referred to as '''Fuse Beads''' and differ from regular beads in that they have holes in the middle. Fuse Beads come in eight different colors, those being red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, white, and black. These colors are tracked separately, as specific types are needed to fill the [[Fuse Bead Mat]]s earned from completing the stages. There are also special beads called '''Luminas''' which are worth 50 Fuse Beads when collected, and also tracked separately.

| Once a stage is cleared, the bead score which Kirby earned will be added to his total, which can be seen while traversing the stage select areas and [[Quilty Square]]. Kirby can spend points to buy [[furniture]] and [[fabric]] from the shops once they open up in the previously mentioned region. In order to buy everything, Kirby will need to revisit several stages.

| [[Dom Woole]] can add floors to [[Quilty Court]] if Kirby gives him enough beads. The second floor costs 10,000 beads and the third floor costs 25,000.
