Kinstone

Kinstones are the mystical stones found in The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. They come in four colours - green, red, blue and gold. Each color (except gold) has three different shapes.

Green Kinstones can be found by cutting up grass and bushes, digging, or killing enemies, but blue and red must be found in chests or bought. The rare gold Kinstones only appear for important game storyline bonuses, and are used in specific points throughout the game.

The Kinstones are created and hid by the Picori, who take great delight in it. They are used in the process of Kinstone Fusion. If two Kinstone pieces fit together perfectly, that means good luck for whoever fused the two of them together. If Link fuses Kinstones, often he will be able to find a Piece of Heart or another bonus.Spoilers:before the third temple is accesable, you must find three golden kinstones and fuse them with the three statues near the block leading to the third temple.End spoilers.
