Beads are items which can be collected in Kirby's Epic Yarn. They serve a similar function to Point Stars 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 Medals 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.

Certain enemies, such as Ooki, will drop beads without having been defeated first.

Scoring

The following beads are worth the following amount of bead points:

• Tiny beads - 1 point
• Small beads - 5 points
• Large beads - 10 points
• Star beads - 100 points

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 for bead streaks (largest amount of beads collected between getting hit) and 100 beads are awarded for each treasure collected.
