Kirby: Canvas Curse

Kirby: Canvas Curse is a spin-off game in the Kirby series for the Nintendo DS created by HAL Laboratory and Nintendo in 2005. In it, Kirby is turned into a ball by a sorceress named Drawcia, and he must travel through eight abstractly-painted worlds with the help of the Magical Paintbrush, controlled by the player's Nintendo DS stylus, in order to defeat her and return both Dream Land and himself to normal.

Kirby is having a nice stroll in Dream Land, when suddenly the world's colors warp as a mysterious witch draws across the land, turning the entire world into a painting. Kirby chases the witch into a world of paintings, and attempts to challenge her. However, the witch uses her magic to transform Kirby into a ball. Kirby finds himself helpless as the evil sorceress escapes, but he sees the witch's Magical Paintbrush and touches it, which "transports" to the player's hands (as the Nintendo DS stylus) via a ray of light.Kirby then traverses seven different levels to reach The World of Drawcia, a strange world of grotesque paintings, and eventually confront the evil sorceress once more, who reveals herself as Drawcia. Despite being in ball form, Kirby is able to defeat Drawcia, and eventually her soul form, with the help of the Magical Paintbrush. Afterwards, Drawcia is forced back into a painting, which shatters into pieces. After Kirby's victory against this foe, he sadly parts ways with the paintbrush, which paints a portal for Kirby to return to his homeworld.
