A '''Treasure Chest''' is an object which has been featured in several games in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]]. The exact nature of a treasure chest varies between titles, but it always serves the base purpose of holding [[Treasure]] and other items of value. Treasure chests first appeared in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'', in [[The Great Cave Offensive]], and most games since then which use treasure chests have used the same concept.

Treasure chests appear as objects in [[The Great Cave Offensive]], with [[Kirby]]'s goal being to open as many of them as possible before leaving the area. There are 60 of them in total, each with a unique item. Treasure chests can be opened if Kirby is standing in front of one if the player presses up on the D-pad, which will play a small cutscene and display the item that was received. Treasure chests can be made to appear by pressing [[switch]]es, breaking [[Bomb Block]]s, or defeating certain enemies, and will fall if not supported by a platform. If a treasure chest is lost, Kirby will need to leave the area and then come back again to get another chance at it.

===''Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble''===
Treasure chests may be found at various points in stages in ''[[Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble]]''. They can be opened by bumping into them to obtain items, including [[food]] and [[key]]s.

When facing off against a boss for the first time in a stage, a special treasure chest will appear which contains various food items and/or [[Stopwatch]]es whose value depends on how much time was left before reaching the boss. Kirby can choose one of several items to eat from a roulette prior to facing the boss.

===''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror''===

Treasure chests can be found scattered all around the [[Mirror World]] in this title. Some are large, containing bonus items such as [[Vitality|Vitalities]] and maps, while most are small, containing minor items such as [[Food]] and [[Battery (Kirby & The Amazing Mirror)|Batteries]]. Opening every chest, regardless of value, is required for [[100% completion]] of this game.

===''Kirby: Squeak Squad''===
The central collectable in this title is the Treasure Chest, which Kirby stores in his [[Copy Palette]] once he has touched it. In order to open the chest, Kirby will then need to take it to the end of the stage while it is still in his possession. There are a total of 120 in the game, and many of them contain necessary items such as Star Seals, as well as useful items such as [[Ability Scroll]]s. If Kirby is hit by any member of the [[Squeaks]] while carrying chests, he will drop one, and will have to pick it up again before they do.

Like in ''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror'', treasure chests come in two different sizes. The larger chests have a more distinct blue design with a red gem, and will always cause Kirby to be pursued by the Squeaks when he picks them up, led by either [[Spinni]], [[Storo]], or [[Doc]].

===''Kirby's Epic Yarn'' / ''Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn''===
Treasure chests take the form of patches in this title. Kirby needs to use his [[Yarn Whip]] to pull them off and reveal the item behind, which could be anything from [[bead]]s to pieces of [[furniture]] for [[Kirby's Pad|his apartment room]].

There is also a piece of furniture that resembles a treasure chest.

===''Kirby Mass Attack''===
Treasure chests can be found at various points in some stages. To open them, the Kirbys will need to find a [[Key]] and take it to the chest. They typically contain [[Medal]]s. There is also a special variety of treasure chest that can be opened using the [[Skull Key]] which appears once the Kirbys have defeated the [[Skully]] ambush.

===''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'', ''Kirby: Planet Robobot'', ''Kirby Star Allies'', and ''Kirby and the Forgotten Land''===
[[File:KSA Treasure Chest.jpg|thumb|100px|A treasure chest in ''Kirby Star Allies''.]]
Treasure chests appear as common objects in these games, sharing the same attributes and basic look in each one. They can be found either out in the open or hidden behind objects such as [[container]]s, grass tufts, and breakable walls. Much like in ''Kirby Super Star'', they are affected by gravity, and will fall if left unsupported. Treasure chests can contain any item, including objects such as [[Key]]s and [[Battery (Kirby: Planet Robobot)|Batteries]], or important collectables such as [[Sun Stone]]s and [[Code Cube]]s, or may contain nothing at all.

Unlike previous games, opening every chest is not required for 100% completion, with only the important items inside being a consideration.

In ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', [[Daroach]] is able to summon a special blue treasure chest with his '''Smack-in-the-Box''' attack. This chest has same design as the one in ''Kirby: Squeak Squad'', and a toy of [[Dark Nebula]] will pop out after a few moments, referencing the events of that game. 

In ''[[Kirby and the Forgotten Land]]'', treasure chests can also take the form of presents delivered to [[Kirby's House]] in [[Waddle Dee Town]], upon entering the correct [[List of Present Codes in Kirby and the Forgotten Land|Present Code]]. These can hold multiple items.

== Other appearances ==
*In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', a [[Smashwiki:List of stickers (Kirby series)|sticker]] of a Treasure Chest can be collected. Equipping it grants +16 to [[trophy]] drops for any fighter (increasing the likelihood of trophies appearing).

==Profiles==
===''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror''===
*'''Instruction manual bio (page 26):''' "''There are large and small treasure chests. Both contain items. What you find inside depends on how big the chest is.''"

=== ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'' ===
*'''Instruction manual bio (page 24):''' "''Treasures come in chests like the one seen here. Stand near them and press up on + to open them.''"

==Trivia==
*Treasure chests are almost always depicted as red in color, but the larger ones in ''Kirby: Squeak Squad'' are blue.
