THE BEST REMAKE IVE EVER PLAYED
never got the chance to play the original on the wii and i'm so glad this remake exists, probably one of the best kirby switch games that's as close to retro as you can get
wish it wasn't short as hell though

was pretty fun to come back to my first kirby game! dont have much to say. i dig the additions: the minigames are fun, and the new epilouge was solid.
...just not really worth to pay 60 dollars for it tho lmao.

If you haven't played the original Wii game and you don't mind minor changes (Dedede's new look and few minigames) then this is the definitive edition.
Another one of those titles that makes you question how you could possibly say something unique. This is everything I could ever hope for from a Kirby game that follows its classic gameplay type. A usurping over its original ten-fold by being so faithful.
Environments feel like a culmination of the highs perfected by previous mainline Kirbys without a single miss, background elements melding seamlessly with the foreground with everything colored vibrantly in HD so every new area has something visually stimulating. The OST is done similarly, creating an atmosphere untouchable by many previous titles.
Gameplay is not slow at all and is just snappy enough, this, mixed with incredible optimization from this iteration of copy abilities, makes you feel extremely prepared for anything the game throws at you. Puzzles aren't tedious and the game gives you some clear indication when you need to do something specific to progress through a puzzle. It isn't inherently challenging but being able to acquire so much through a single playthrough of a level entirely outweighs difficulty for me.
The story of Return is absolutely timeless, creating some great character development through its vignette-esque cutscenes. And having the final boss of a Kirby title actually have development is something you don't know you need until you have it. This follows well into the Magolor Epilogue.
Of which, the Magolor Epilogue is so far, by far, my favorite thing to come out of a mainline Kirby. I adore everything about this mode. Its story extension, new arcade-like gameplay with Mago's unique upgradable abilities, and of course the design and music for these areas.
I love this game and Magolor Epilogue just pushes it over the edge, going into playing through mainline Kirbys, I didn't expect to find something so near perfection.
