If you ignore the inconsistent level design, enemies that teleport in from off screen to instantly kill you, and layouts that assume you can read the developer's mind, you're going to be left with a pretty decent pocket-sized version of Donkey Kong Country. Fun in short bursts, would be more fun if not for all that stuff I just mentioned. Nowadays you can play it on the Switch, where if you don't like it you can quickly and easily swap it with one of the other games Nintendo's online service provides.

Lots of fun, but the stage layout is annoying and only barely tolerable with the help of the map items that you have to scrounge every world for. You get the feeling that maybe they wanted people to rely on their friends' help to locate everything? It would be nice if HAL made another Kirby metroidvania but made it easier to navigate. Anyway, it's a cool Kirby game but get ready to backtrack a lot or look up a map online.

It's a rougelike but..... it's a fun roguelike? If you don't like them then this won't change your mind but if you do, prepare to have a blast while climbing endlessly.
