This game is so good!! The bitsize stories really help give variety to the game. The abilities are complex and add an incredible amount of replayability, and the multiplayer is perfect. Do check out the remake, though.

I had a craving to replay Kirby Super Star in some capacity and choose to play this version. Even though I played Kirby Super Star Ultra first and think that version is better, this version is still fantastic and deserves the praise it gets. Spring Breeze is pretty simple and probably just a watered-down version of the original game but still a good experience. Dyna Blade is also pretty simplistic like Spring Breeze but they are not the main highlights. Pretty much everything else are though. Gourmet Race is a mode that combines platforming with a mix of racing while also requiring you to collect as much food as possible. It's definitely something that can get addicting and I do remember playing it a bunch in the remake. Meta Knight's Revenge has a cool story and that's where the platforming reaches its peak. Great Cave Offensive has a lot of really cool secrets and the exploration is great. Milky Way Wishes is also pretty good, but its highlight for me is the twist with Marx and his final boss fight which is pretty iconic in my opinion. Besides a couple of small minigames that are really fun, the last game is a boss rush called The Arena. Fighting all the bosses in one gauntlet is a decent challenge and a great mode to add. In summary, this game is a masterpiece and not only one of the best Kirby games but one of the best SNES games as well. Sakurai really needs to make more games that are not Smash.

The fact this series hasn't come back in any form is a massive shame.

I enjoyed this a lot. It is combat focused and lets you run wild with different sets and it encourages you to try as many styles as possible. This DLC actually made the spear become my fave weapon to use.

The boss fights with a certain character were challenging and fun.

I also liked the setup they did for future games, and the continued development for Kratos even after the events of the first two games. It shows SSM is being careful with Kratos' character and they aren't just rushing into anything.

Very good overall.

started it hoping to find a chill walking sim with some phylosophy about deja vu, life and sh*t but ended up finding a 25 min exerience with bad visuals and a lot of nonsense written with zero effort and brain

It puts me to sleep after a few hours, but I DO keep returning to it a couple times a year. Occasional moments of quiet beauty, dignity, heroism. Far more moments of dumb samurai cliches and tired game design. There are a handful of missions that capture the breathless excitement of a climactic village-battle like you remember from Seven Samurai. The combat system is at it's best when you are racing around a chaotic fight, barely managing to save less skilled warriors (or farmers) than yourself, using whatever tools you have at the moment.

Retracting my previous negative review on this game because I just saw a piece of Jack x Astos yaoi
