Kirby Star Allies introduces a neat new system that gives Kirby more powers than ever before. While Kirby's companions work well, the game never pushes players to tap its full potential. Every puzzle, every platforming sequence, and every boss fight is an absolute cakewalk - even by Kirby standards.

Beautiful; vibrant visuals; Co-op works well

Ridiculously easy; Puzzle solutions are fed to you; Lightweight on content

When the world of Dream Land is under attack, it's up to Kirby and his ‘allies' to help liberate its denizens as a dark force threatens everything around them.

Too short; Lots of loading screens; Very easy; even by Kirby standards

I am an avid switch gamer. I have just about every game. My taste in games go from Outlast and Layers of Fear to Mario Odyssey and Kirby: Star Allies. Let me just say how great this game looks. It is colorful, whimsical and just plain funny at times.

Sometimes, you just want to sit back and enjoy a video game without being pushed to your limits. Not every game has to challenge your endurance, your patience and problem solving skills.

Kirby has a very colorful history with Nintendo, beginning on the Game Boy and eventually appearing on every Nintendo console since, the lovable puff ball has had his fair share of experiences.

For better or worse, Kirby is Nintendo's most consistent franchise. New entries come often, and they don't stray too far from the "pretty good" mark in either direction. On that scale of inoffensiveness, Star Allies rests a bit on the low end, offering a bland Kirby experience with few new...

Sucks and blows.

Lovely looking; Lots of combinations to experiment with

Far too easy; Rather dull; Doesn't run at 60fps
