There are two main types of cards: Kirby cards and Enemy cards. Kirby cards feature Kirby either in his [[Normal]] state or with a [[Copy Ability]], while Enemy cards feature various [[enemy|enemies]] and [[boss]]es of the series. Each card comes in one of five colors (white, red, blue, yellow, or green), and features a number ranging from 1 to 8 in the top left corner. For Kirby cards, this is their "power", while for Enemy cards, this is their "life". Copy Ability cards have unique abilities, while Enemy cards also have a point value. | There are two main types of cards: Kirby cards and Enemy cards.

There are three modes to play, and in each mode, the goal is to collect Enemy cards by attacking them with Kirby cards. In Easy Battle, Enemy cards are attacked by matching Kirby cards of the same color, and power equal to or higher than the Enemy's life. In Copy Ability Battle and Solo Battle, turns are split into an "action phase" and a "get phase"; color does not matter when attacking in the "action phase", but collecting an Enemy card allows the player to draw a Copy Ability card of the same color in the "get phase". In Easy Battle and Copy Ability Battle, the winner is the player with the most Enemy card points at the end of the game. In Solo Battle, there is also an "enemy attack phase", and the player wins by collecting a certain amount of Enemy card points before taking too much damage from Enemy cards. | There are three modes to play, and in each mode, the goal is to collect Enemy cards by attacking them with Kirby cards.

==''Kirby no Copy-toru! Mini''== | |||
In addition to the main version of the game, a downsized version called ''Kirby no Copy-toru! Mini'' was included with issue 1 of ''Kirby Fan'' magazine. The differences from the retail version are as follows: | |||
*Only Easy Battle can be played. The Copy Ability cards do not have descriptions of their abilities for Copy Ability Battle and Solo Battle. | |||
*Enemy cards do not have a point value. Their life value is used as their score. | |||
*There are only 25 Kirby cards and 25 Enemy cards included (five suits of Kirby cards and five suits of Enemy cards; five cards in each suit, with no duplicates). The max power/life is 5, so some kinds of cards are given lower power/life than in the base game. | |||
*The maximum number of players has been reduced from 6 to 4. When playing with 4 players, the number of Kirby cards per player and Enemy cards on the table are reduced from 8 to 4. | |||
*The "first turn" card is not included, so the turn order must be kept track of manually. | |||
Besides that, the illustrations and flavor text are the same as the retail game. These are the cards included in ''Kirby no Copy-toru! Mini'': | |||

“ | カービィカードでコピー能力バトル! A Copy Ability Battle with Kirby cards! |
” | — official tagline |
Kirby no Copy-toru![1] (also known as Kirby Copy-toru![2]) is a Japanese exclusive Kirby card game published by HAL Laboratory and Ensky in 2015, and re-released in 2023. It can be played by 1-6 players, features three different game modes, and is recommended for ages 6-7 and up.
Overview[edit]
There are two main types of cards: Kirby cards and Enemy cards. Kirby cards feature Kirby either in his Normal state or with a Copy Ability, while Enemy cards feature various enemies and bosses of the series. Each card comes in one of five colors (white, red, blue, yellow, or green), and features a number ranging from 1 to 8 in the top left corner. For Kirby cards, this is their "power", while for Enemy cards, this is their "life". Copy Ability cards have unique abilities, while Enemy cards also have a point value.
There are three modes to play, and in each mode, the goal is to collect Enemy cards by attacking them with Kirby cards. In Easy Battle, Enemy cards are attacked by matching Kirby cards of the same color, and power equal to or higher than the Enemy's life. In Copy Ability Battle and Solo Battle, turns are split into an "action phase" and a "get phase"; color does not matter when attacking in the "action phase", but collecting an Enemy card allows the player to draw a Copy Ability card of the same color in the "get phase". In Easy Battle and Copy Ability Battle, the winner is the player with the most Enemy card points at the end of the game. In Solo Battle, there is also an "enemy attack phase", and the player wins by collecting a certain amount of Enemy card points before taking too much damage from Enemy cards.
List of cards[edit]
The game comes with 112 cards in total (54 Kirby cards, 48 Enemy cards, 10 other cards). The original release of the game features regular cards, while the ones from the re-release have glitter on them.
All artwork made for the game is unique, and resembles the artstyle of artwork from Kirby Super Star Ultra. Card artwork also features representations of fields based on various stages in the mainline games (up to Kirby: Triple Deluxe, the latest mainline game at the time of release). The abilities, bosses and enemies featured are mostly depicted in locations where they were originally found in the games.
Almost all of the mainline games are represented in the field artwork, though remakes are used instead of the original games (Spring Breeze over Kirby's Dream Land, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land over Kirby's Adventure, and Kirby Super Star Ultra over Kirby Super Star). Kirby's Dream Land 2 is the only mainline game that is not represented at all, likely due to the limited color palette of its locations.
Kirby cards[edit]
Kirby cards come in two main types, Normal cards and Copy Ability cards. The Normal cards are all white, while the Copy Ability cards come in four colors, with two abilities each: yellow cards feature Beam or Cutter, blue cards feature Bomb or Ice, red cards feature Fire or Fighter, and green cards feature Sword or Spark. The Copy Ability cards depict Kirby attacking with the respective ability; most attacks are from the games, but some are original to the card game.
Most Copy Ability cards have unique abilities that can be used in Copy Ability Battle and Solo Battle. These abilities include:
- Power + (x) - Adds (x) power to the base power of the card.
- Target + (x) - When selecting an Enemy card to attack, the player can select as many as (x) more to also be attacked.
- Action +1 - After finishing the "action phase", the player can perform an additional "action phase". The additional "action phase" is not an extra turn (it does not include an additional "get phase").
- You can discard up to (x) cards - It is not required to discard any cards.
- Get + (x) - During the "get phase", the player can select as many as (x) additional Kirby cards from the table or the Normal deck (not the Copy Ability deck).
- After the "get phase" - This ability is performed after adding a Kirby card to the player's hand in the "get phase".
There are a total of 54 Kirby cards; six suits of eight cards and two suits of three cards. Two of the suits of eight are Normal cards, and the other four suits of eight are Copy Ability cards (one for each color). The extra two suits are additional Normal cards of powers 3, 4, and 5.
The following is a list of all Kirby cards. All translations are conjectural, with card names using localized terms from games whenever possible.

Enemy cards[edit]
Enemy cards also come in white, red, blue, yellow, or green. The white cards depict ability-neutral enemies and bosses, while the color cards depict ability-yielding enemies (the corresponding ones from the Copy Ability cards).
There are a total of 48 Enemy cards, in six suits of eight cards each. Two suits are white cards, and four suits are color cards (one for each color). The white cards of 6, 7, and 8 are unique (they feature different characters between the two suits), while the other white cards share the same characters between both suits. Enemy cards also have a point value at the bottom of the card, which varies from 1 to 10, corresponding to their life value.

Other cards[edit]
In addition to the Kirby and Enemy cards, the game comes with ten additional cards. These consist of four number cards (1 through 7, double-sided, with the 7's other side being a rules card), two rules cards (with one also serving as the "first turn" card), and four blank cards (two in the Kirby card design and two in the Enemy card design).
Promotional cards[edit]
Besides the base set of cards, eight promotional cards were released (three Normal cards, four Copy Ability cards, and one Enemy card). They were released as purchase bonuses, prizes, and — in one case — magazine freebies. They are all identical to existing cards, simply with alternate artwork.

Game modes[edit]
There are three different ways the game can be played:
Easy Battle (かんたんバトル)[edit]
This mode requires 2-6 players, is recommended for ages 6 and up, and takes around 10 minutes to play. Players take turns drawing Kirby cards to attack and collect Enemy cards on the table. The game ends when all players are out of Kirby cards, and the winner is the player with the highest score from the sum of points of the Enemy cards they have collected.
At the beginning of the game, two of each of the white 3, 4, and 5 power Kirby cards are removed from play, and the rest of the Kirby cards are shuffled and distributed among the players, face down. Each player should hold their cards so that other players cannot see them. How many Kirby cards each player receives depends on the number of players. The remaining Kirby cards are placed on the table as the Kirby deck. Any abilities on the Kirby cards are ignored in this mode.
No. of Players | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
No. of Kirby Cards (per player) |
8 | 6 | 8 | 5 | 6 |
Then, the Enemy cards are shuffled, and a small number of Enemy cards are placed on the table, face up. How many Enemy cards are placed depends on the number of players. The remaining Enemy cards are placed on the table as the Enemy deck.
No. of Players | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
No. of Enemy Cards (on the table) |
4 | 6 | 8 | 5 | 6 |
Now, the first player is decided (the rules suggest rock-paper-scissors). They are given the "first turn" card, and from there, the turn order is clockwise from them.
Each turn, a player draws one of their Kirby cards and "attacks" an Enemy. If the attack is successful, the player "defeats" the Enemy and obtains the Enemy card. If not, the Enemy card is simply discarded. Regardless of the outcome, the drawn Kirby card is discarded as well. An attack is successful if the colors of the Kirby and Enemy cards match, and the Kirby card's power is greater than or equal to the Enemy card's life. White Kirby cards can attack any Enemy card color, and white Enemy cards can be attacked by any Kirby card color. Moreover, a 1 power Kirby card can defeat an 8 life Enemy card. Once the attack is finished, the next player's turn begins.
If a player cannot attack any Enemy card, or wants to attempt to defeat a strong Enemy card, they can perform a "challenge attack". In this case, they discard one of their Kirby cards and draw a new one from the Kirby deck. However, the player must attack with the new card. Regardless of the outcome, that card is discarded, and the next player's turn begins.
Once all Enemy cards on the table are gone, they are replaced from the Enemy deck, just like at the beginning of the game. The "first turn" card is moved clockwise to the next person, and play continues from that person. The game ends when everyone runs out of Kirby cards. At that point, each player's Enemy card score is tallied, and the player with the highest score wins. If multiple players have the highest score, it is a draw.[3]
Copy Ability Battle (コピー能力バトル)[edit]
This mode requires 2-4 players, is recommended for ages 7 and up, and takes around 15 minutes to play. It is similar to Easy Battle, though more complex and with some different rules. The goal is still to defeat Enemy cards with Kirby cards, but in this mode, white Kirby cards are called Normal cards, and Kirby cards of other colors are called Copy Ability cards. Most Copy Ability cards have special abilities which become active when played. The game lasts for seven rounds, and the winner is the player with the highest Enemy card score at the end of the seventh round.
At the beginning of the game, each player receives one each of the 3, 4, and 5 power Normal cards. Then, three decks are shuffled and placed on the table — one with Normal cards of power 6, 7, and 8; one with Copy Ability cards; and another with Enemy cards. Five Copy Ability cards are placed face up on the table, followed by five Enemy cards. The Enemy cards at the beginning of the game must be color cards, and must have 5 life or less; if Enemy cards that are white or have 6 or more life are drawn, they should be discarded. Discarded cards should be placed next to their respective decks.
Now, the player order is decided (the rules suggest rock-paper-scissors). From there, the game begins.
Each player's turn has two phases: the "action phase" and the "get phase". Once a player completes both phases, their turn ends, and the next player begins their turn. The number card deck is used to indicate the round; it is set at 1 when the game begins. Once every player has completed their turn, the number card deck is advanced to the next number, up to 7.
The "action phase" consists of the player using one of their held Kirby cards to attack an Enemy card on the table. Unlike Easy Battle, the colors of the cards don't have to match, and 1 power Kirby cards cannot defeat 8 life Enemy cards. If the drawn Kirby card has an ability, it will be performed before any attacks; the abilities must be performed in the order they are written. Some abilities are only performed during or after the "get phase". If the attack fails, the Enemy card remains on the table, but if it succeeds, the player defeats the Enemy and obtains the Enemy card; the Kirby card is discarded regardless. Once the attack is finished, the "action phase" ends. The player can also choose to skip this phase entirely, if they cannot successfully attack or wish to keep their cards.
After the "action phase" comes the "get phase". If the cards played in the "action phase" have abilities that are performed during the "get phase", they are performed now. The "get phase" allows the player to collect a Copy Ability card from the table. The player can only choose Copy Ability cards of the same color as Enemy cards that they have already successfully defeated (in the whole game, not just that turn). However, even if more than one Enemy card was defeated (due to an ability), the player can only choose one Copy Ability card; furthermore, the player can still collect a Copy Ability card even if they did not successfully attack in the "action phase", as long as they have a matching Enemy card.
If the player cannot collect any Copy Ability cards, they instead draw a card from the Normal card deck. The player can also intentionally choose to draw from the Normal card deck instead of collecting a Copy Ability card. Also, if the player cannot collect any Copy Ability cards at the start of the "get phase", they can declare "reset" to discard the current Copy Ability cards on the table and draw a new set of five to choose from. This can only be done once per turn.
Players can only have a maximum of seven cards in their hand; if they have eight or more, they must choose seven cards to keep and discard the rest.
After the "get phase" concludes, the player's turn ends. Card abilities that are performed after the "get phase" take effect now.
If there are less than five Enemy or Copy Ability cards on the table at the end of a turn, they should be replenished from their respective decks. If a deck runs out of cards, it should be reshuffled from its discard pile (making sure to separate the Normal and Copy Ability cards when doing so).
Once everyone has completed seven turns, the game ends. At that point, each player's Enemy card score is tallied, and the player with the highest score wins. If multiple players have the highest score, whoever had the latest turn wins.[4]
Solo Battle (ひとりバトル)[edit]
This mode is played with only 1 player, is recommended for ages 7 and up, and takes around 15 minutes to play. Solo Battle is similar to Copy Ability Battle, and can be used as practice or played for fun. Enemy cards advance each turn to damage the player, and the player must attack to meet a target score before taking too much damage. It also comes with 10 "quests" (difficulty levels). Much like in Copy Ability Battle, Kirby cards are divided into Normal cards (white) and Copy Ability cards (every other color).
The 10 "quests" of Solo Battle determine certain factors at the beginning of the game.
Quest Level | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
No. of Cards on the Table (Kirby Cards and Enemy Cards) |
4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 |
No. of Rows | 4 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 2 | 2 |
Target Score | 30 | 50 | 70 | 50 | 70 | 40 | 60 | 80 | 60 | 80 |
Player's Life | 6 | 5 | 4 | 4 | 3 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 4 | 3 |
Preparation is the same as in Copy Ability Battle. The player starts with one each of the Normal cards of powers 3, 4, and 5. The other cards are shuffled into three decks — Normal cards of powers 6, 7, and 8; Copy Ability cards; and Enemy cards. In Solo Battle, the Enemy cards on the table are sorted into rows, which are represented by the number cards; the number of rows (four, three, or two) varies depending on the quest level. The rows are sorted with lower numbers being closer to the player, i.e. 1 is the closest. The Copy Ability cards and Enemy cards are placed on the table according to the number defined by the quest level (four or three). Like Copy Ability Battle, Enemy cards at the beginning of the game must be color cards and must have 5 life or less. Enemy cards are placed in the highest row, the one furthest from the player.
From there, the game begins. Turns are divided into the "attack phase", the "get phase", and the "enemy attack phase". The "attack phase" and the "get phase" are performed the same as Copy Ability Battle. After the "get phase", the "enemy attack phase" is performed.
During the "enemy attack phase", every Enemy card on the table moves down one row (closer to 1). If Enemy cards go past row 1, the player receives 1 damage per Enemy card (the damage received is not equivalent to the Enemy card's life). Enemy cards that cause damage are placed in a damage pile (not the discard pile). If the number of cards in the damage pile is greater than or equal to the player's life value (determined by the quest level), the game ends in a loss.
Once the "enemy attack phase" is over, the turn ends, and the next turn begins. If there are less than the designated amount of Copy Ability or Enemy cards on the table, they should be replenished from their respective decks; new Enemy cards are placed in the highest row. If a deck runs out of cards, it should be reshuffled from its discard pile.
For example, on quest level 1, only four Enemy cards can be placed on the table. Even if there is empty space in the fourth row, there cannot be any more than four Enemy cards on the table.
The game ends in a victory if the target score (determined by the quest level) is met. The "get phase" and "enemy attack phase" do not need to be performed once this happens.
Most card abilities are performed the same as in Copy Ability Battle. Abilities that attack multiple targets can attack any Enemy card, even if they are in different rows. For abilities that say "draw cards from the deck onto the table until there are five cards," this should be replaced with the quest level's number of cards on the table (four or three).[5][6]
Kirby no Copy-toru! Mini[edit]
In addition to the main version of the game, a downsized version called Kirby no Copy-toru! Mini was included with issue 1 of Kirby Fan magazine. The differences from the retail version are as follows:
- Only Easy Battle can be played. The Copy Ability cards do not have descriptions of their abilities for Copy Ability Battle and Solo Battle.
- Enemy cards do not have a point value. Their life value is used as their score.
- There are only 25 Kirby cards and 25 Enemy cards included (five suits of Kirby cards and five suits of Enemy cards; five cards in each suit, with no duplicates). The max power/life is 5, so some kinds of cards are given lower power/life than in the base game.
- The maximum number of players has been reduced from 6 to 4. When playing with 4 players, the number of Kirby cards per player and Enemy cards on the table are reduced from 8 to 4.
- The "first turn" card is not included, so the turn order must be kept track of manually.
Besides that, the illustrations and flavor text are the same as the retail game. These are the cards included in Kirby no Copy-toru! Mini:

In the games[edit]
Fighter's "Quick Jab" and Sword's "Big Spin Slash" are original moves created for Kirby no Copy-toru!. Quick Jab later appeared in Kirby Battle Royale, and Big Spin Slash later appeared in Kirby and the Forgotten Land.
Whispy Woods' and Meta Knight's respective titles, "Guardian of the Forest" and "The Lone Swordsman", first appeared as part of their flavor text in this game before being incorporated into Kirby Star Allies.
Artwork from Kirby no Copy-toru! was used in Super Kirby Clash, for four stickers: Kirby 6, Kirby 7, Meta Knight 4 and Waddle Dee 5.

Japanese | カービィのコピとる! kābyi no kopitoru! |
Kirby's Copy-toru! Per the tagline,「コピとる」Copy-toru is short for「コピー能力バトル」("Copy Ability Battle"). However, the「とる」-toru is written in hiragana; in kanji, it would be written as「取る」. This generally means to "take" or "capture", but can be used in the context of playing a card game, i.e.「かるたを取る」("playing Karuta"). As this game involves capturing Copy Abilities and itself is a card game to be played, the double meaning is likely intentional. |
