I’m going to be honest here, this review isn’t legitimate. I normally don’t like to review games as I played it with a hack that improves the experience because I feel like it makes the review invalid in my mind. It’s fine if others do it but for me, it just makes me feel bad. I made an exception with this game. If you don’t know, there’s a hack that lets you play with the d-pad and buttons for the whole game. It’s not perfect but thanks to this, I got to enjoy a game I probably would have never done before.

This game has some fun level design but I do feel like it does repeat some ideas a little too much along with repetitive themes. For a game with 32 stages, it could be a bit better. What is here though is pretty fun and probably due to the hack, it was a pretty easy adventure. There’s even some fun minigames here like the one where you can make Kirby drive off a cliff and die, that’s hilarious. Once you 100% the game, you have to play the whole game again but it’s a little harder and those red stars you need for 100% are in the exact same areas which feels a bit lazy. I was surprised at how well thought out the level design was and how it never really felt dull and even at times feels kind of smart with the placement of obstacles. I do wish the bosses were better though with how it’s normally supposed to be controlled, I get why they’re the way they are.

I don’t really have too much to say about my playthrough but I enjoyed what was there even with the issues and I do wish 100% did more than just be like “wow you did perfect” because that took like 5 hours. Just try not to do it in one sitting and you'll be fine. The game is on NSO if you wanna try it with the Gyro controls but I probably will just stick to this hack even if it’s not the intended way to play the game.
