its a fun enough platformer, but rather simple and barebones. dont expect to do almost anything you can in other kirby games, you can just suck and blow. swallowing enemies seems to be pointless, and there are only 5 levels and 5 bosses, with one of the levels just being a boss rush. it's also wayyyyy too short, you might beat it in around an hour, which might not sound too far off for an 8bit platformer, but most of those games were at least artificially lengthened in their difficulty (which admittedly can be annoying), this is just something short, bland and would have been forgotten had it not been for the fact that it spawned the series. not a bad game, but i will say just play its remake, kirby superstar on the snes
