Kirby's Dream Land 3 is a game I wish I could love more, but unfortunately, while it's not bad or anything, it doesn't live up to the expectations I had for it. I was hoping this would be my favourite of the three Dream Land games, but in all honesty, I think 2 was the one that gave me the best time. I didn't 100% either 2 or 3 but I found that you get more out of trying to 100% this game rather than actually just going through the levels, since the true final boss is behind it and every level has a side quest to do to unlock it. Now I wouldn't have an issue with this, if side quests were obscure in objective for most and the game didn't feel awkward to play. I found that the movement just felt off, most likely since it feels a lot slower than every other Kirby game I've played so far. The Animal Friends also felt like a downgrade this time around, with a lot of them being a lot slower or having very close range attacks with the Copy Abilities. The old ones were fine, but the new ones, specifically ChuChu I didn't really like, though I do really like Nago and Coo felt slower this time around. I mainly stuck with Nago + Fire but I still felt like a lot of the combos killed your movement and just didn't feel as smooth to use as something like Sword in Kirby Super Star for instance. There's still some great things about this game, it has a lot of charm, mainly due to the art style and cute OST, and the final boss is pretty fun too. I played this on Nintendo Switch Online so there was the special mode that had a full save file, so I opted to do that over the side missions because I got tired of them after Level 2. The true final boss is pretty fun to fight and probably my favourite part of the game because it isn't plagued by any issues that I mentioned earlier like movement, but it's a hassle to get to for only four minutes of gameplay. I don't know, I wouldn't say this game is anywhere near bad but I would say I was a bit disappointed that this didn't live up to my expectations. Overall, the game has a lot of charm and personality, but it doesn't quite live up to the expectations I had for it.
