The debut of Dreamland's favorite gourmand is a simple, albeit enjoyable experience. The five-level appetizer gives players just enough to wet their palates before seeking out a heartier Kirby helping via his later titles.

A solid platformer. The levels are quick, varied, and well designed. The power-ups are somewhat limited and the forced perspective does suffer sometimes without the 3D effect active, but it's a fun playthrough with a surprising amount of post-game content.
