kirby's dreamland 3. let's be honest.
i do really miss the puzzle-solving aspect of kirby games. the relegation of these features to mere 1-ups or collectible is just not enough. where the previous entry, kirby's dreamland 2, had more demanding and frankly ridiculous puzzles to solve, dreamland 3 here makes it more intuitive in finding out what you have to do. the puzzles follow a similar structure from world-to-world, and whenever you're in an important place the game is sure to make a little chime sound to tell you "hey, puzzle here!"
it's great, and i love solving puzzles with my abilities to help the little characters in this game. it's fun!
if they were to bring these puzzle elements into future games with the same combat mechanics we have now, i feel like 100%-ing kirby games would be 10x more fun.

let's not forget to talk about the music and design choice. i love to look at this game, and i love to listen to this game. it's soft, but it certainly knows how to look foreboding when it needs to be. i love it!

it's not your standard kirby game, but it's fun if you look at it with your head tilted. just give it a try!
