It's incredible that Kirby in the 2010's was pretty repetetive, yet still managed to bring out quality titles all around (even though I think Star Allies was just okay and haven't played Triple Deluxe for myself yet). This one is my favorite not only of four, but also my favorite in the series, even though I don't really have much to say about it, either that I can't come up with much or it has already been said by others.

What I can say is that a pitfall I think most Kirby games fall into, even the good ones, is that the levels of one world tend to blend themselves together, but here, the industrial setting and mecha suit help every level stand out from one another. And the final boss of the True Arena may be my favorite boss battle in any game I've played.

This is also the Kirby game were we can start saying "What were the writers smoking?"
