maybe it’s the nostalgia talking, but i love this game SO MUCH, it’s my favorite! it was my first kirby game, so i’m a bit biased.
the main gimmick of the game makes it fun and challenging; though it does remove Kirby’s ability to fly and copy abilities, it’s still fun! you throw your Kirbys at enemies to attack them and you can fling them around or make them run, and you can pick them all up at once to carry them. and yes, there’s more than one Kirby, as Kirby has been split up into 10 by the evil Necrodeus!
you get more kirbys by food, and the more Kirbys you get, the more your score increases, and the more challenging the game gets! and as you go through the game, you collect medals, and through the medals you get special things.
special things meaning side games— like a fun little shooter (Strato Patrol EOS), whack-a-mole (Field Frenzy), a music player, and KIRBY PINBAAALLLLL!!!!! (Kirby Brawlball).. to name a few!
i won’t say anything about the story!
the music is SOOOO FUN! it has remixes of quite a bit of songs from Kirby’s Air Ride, so if you’re a fan, this will be a treat for you!
i love this game WAYYYYYYY TOO MUCH and have two copies of it! i recommend it to a kirby fan who wants a different experience!
