A rare course[1] is present in the Remix 10 mode of Super Mario Run. It is an Original Course that replaces the first course of a round. A rare course has the player use Super Stars and Trampolines to collect a large number of coins in the shape of a item or character. There are eleven different shapes available, the game chooses one when the course is loaded. The shape of the coins is not predetermined; loading this course multiple times can change what the shape is. Every version of the course has five Bonus Medals in the formation, up from the three Bonus Medals present in normal courses in Remix 10. A rare course's icon is that of a Bonus Medal sticking out of a cloud, which is visible both on the Area map and just before the course is loaded.
This course appears when the prior round of Remix 10 ended while the player's coin counter had double digits. (ex. 11, 22, 33, ...) A fifteen minute timer is present over the course's icon on the Area map. When this timer expires the icon vanishes and this course stops replacing the first course of the round.
When a round is started, there is a rare chance that the icon for a rare course absorbs light. In such a case, every coin in the course is replaced by a Bonus Medal. This results in an extremely large number of Bonus Medals. In such instances, the sequence where Mario exits the course is modified. Instead of showing a slot for every Bonus Medal and filling in the collected ones, the game shows a counter and quickly counts up to the number of Bonus Medals collected. If the player did not collect every Bonus Medal in this scenario, the game still counts this as having collected every Bonus Medal for this course. The space on the Area map will still be rainbow and the player can still get the "Got all medals!" bonus for having collected every Bonus Medal in every other course of the round.
Layout[edit]
Mario runs across a row of Cloud Blocks. Two ? Blocks are side by side: both contain Super Stars. Then the coin and Bonus Medal formation appears. Underneath it is a row of six Trampolines over Hard Blocks, which can be used to reach the highest part of the image and collect the items. This is followed by more Cloud Blocks, and the Goal Pole.
