A solid entry in the Kirby games, even if it hews a little too closely to the series formula. But there's a decent variety of powers to go around as well as some more rich attempts at environmental interactions. It's also jam-packed with small puzzles to the point that it can feel like there's one nearly every screen. The Squeaks are a cute gang and make for some fun races and fights, and MetaKnight is good as always. The final boss doesn't have much juice, though, which is a bit underwhelming.
