Still is the best Kirby game I've played, although Forgotten Land is a good candidate.
I mean, it has the Kirby charm, kickass cuteness and badassery, and mechas! I also find the concept of Kirby fighting capitalism so cute.
As for the gameplay, it's probably where the formula peaked. Star Allies kinda stagnated in being too easy in the main story and therefore a bit of a slog to get through, but Robobot manages to balance some good simplicity and difficulty. Also Mirror is back.
If you're asking why I'm ranking a Kirby game of all things a 4.5, then yeah I'm going to admit I'm biased because I love Kirby so much. But what is a review but not a thinking piece of one's own expression? Kirby is Kirby, and I'll always love Kirby, and Robobot reminds me of why I love Kirby.

O maior inimigo da repetição, simplesmente.
Esse jogo consegue se sair bem em tudo, sério. Os mapas são lindos e bem diferentes uns dos outros, os inimigos (tanto normais quanto os chefes) são únicos, as habilidades são tantas e bastante criativas, a lista continua...
Pra minha 1a experiência com Kirby, me surpreendi de verdade, nem sei se achei algum defeito enquanto jogava. É impossível não se divertir com esse jogo.

probably the peak of kirby. incredible level design, a great and well-used gimmick, beautiful cutscenes, a story that kind of makes sense, it's all there. it's not like i have more to say, it's a perfectly polished 2d platformer
side note: haltmann's VO work is genuinely incredible. stunningly haunting for the very short amount of time given

Kirby in space is a simple premise, until Kirby: Planet Robobot started to talk about corporate colonialism. Kirby has always had surprising elements, usually in the kinds of abilities Kirby has, but the twists in the story are so forthright and anti-capitalist that I am convinced this game taught as least one kid about the threat of corporations exploiting native land. Kirby has always succeeded as a kind of oddball platformer made in the footprint of 2D Mario and Donkey Kong and those influences are present here, allowing for really solid platforming. What is so great about the formula is how adaptable it is. Planet Robobot experiments with depth in an undoubtedly very Nintendo 3DS way, but the changes in depth still contribute to the momentum of the level. The features of the Nintendo 3DS are not used as motivation to shoehorn reductive gameplay, but subtly enhance the visuals of the game. It got me to use the 3D slider more than other games, especially during the last few levels.
Great game. This game has fun levels, a great OST, and the Robobot armor is a great gimmick. I liked the Hypernova in Triple Deluxe, but the Robobot suit has way more variety since it can copy abilities just like Kirby can. The main story is a fun time, and Metaknightmare Returns was a fun way to revisit the levels. The side games are also pretty fun, although they are a bit too short, especially 3D Rumble. Overall this game is a great time and I highly recommend it.
