I don’t know how I’ll feel about this after 10 hours, but 1 hour in and I’m having a great time. It’s absolutely adorable and fun to play co-op. It’s very simple, but if you have young children or a partner who doesn’t play games, this is an easy recommendation. Also you can turn into a car, or a vending …

The challenges for bosses are so artificially challenging. 2 of the challenges are "beat the boss within a time limit" (which is pretty easy), but I hate the no damage challenges. Taking a hit and retrying makes 100% completing this game feel padded out. The 5th boss is the worst in this case since during the final phase, he moves …

The challenges for bosses are so artificially challenging. 2 of the challenges are "beat the boss within a time limit" (which is pretty easy), but I hate the no damage challenges. Taking a hit and retrying makes 100% completing this game feel padded out. The 5th boss is the worst in this case since during the final phase, he moves so fast in this small arena that it's so easy for you to take a hit if you get even a little far from a corner. Give me a retry button for every level instead of me exiting a stage and going back in. Why isn't there one since the challenge levels already have a retry button?

Other than my problem though, Kirby and the Forgotten Land is cute.

If you dare kill these two, you're donezo.

Got to the best ability in the series.

Played through a bit of this game, I have to say that I like it. Kirby moved to 3D really gracefully while still feeling like Kirby. My only gripe is that Kirby’s movement speed is far too low for the large environments he’s in

Finished 2 levels so far. I like playing Kirby games to 100% completion, but one criticism is how collectibles are handled. How does blooming tulips rescue Waddle Dees? If I get rid of this wanted poster, will that save the Waddle Dee? The tasks are left vague until you finish the level. So if you want to complete the level, …

Finished 2 levels so far. I like playing Kirby games to 100% completion, but one criticism is how collectibles are handled. How does blooming tulips rescue Waddle Dees? If I get rid of this wanted poster, will that save the Waddle Dee? The tasks are left vague until you finish the level. So if you want to complete the level, you have to play through that level again which unlike every other modern Kirby game, you know that you have to keep your eye out for shiny collectibles. You know what you're looking for and thus, it's easier for you to 100% a level in one go.

This most likely means we're gonna get some fucked up shit and thus, this is in my top 3 most anticipated games of this year.
