Great attempt at the first fully 3d Kirby game.
Its got the standard amount of content for Kirby, though some levels felt same-y. Mouthful mode is a good gimmick, although not as memorable as Robobot. The soundtrack and aesthetic design are excellent, some of the best in the series. The platforming and combat is extremely satisfying and feels just like combo-ing mobs in the classic games.
My main gripe with this game is the amount of copy abilities. I understand that the upgrades sort of count as their own ability, but many of them are just strict upgrades, or minor AOE and visual changes. Few of them really felt like different abilities when leveled up. However, the included abilities have a healthy amount of depth and variety, even without upgrades.
