MUCH better than MP1, minigames are better and much more balance, However it still has it fair share of issues in those department (crane game in particular) and boo taking coins is more of RNG then actually pressing the button. Western, Space, and Horror Land got introduced here which is GREAT. other boards are nothing to write home about or just “Why?”. The controls much tighter. Otherwise Its a good, perhaps great game, but I don’t see the appeal everyone gives it, I didn’t grew up on this game so perhaps i just don’t see it the same way everyone does.

It kickstarted the Mario Party games we have nowadays, but the more I play this one, the less I start to like it.

I've never really been on Kirby, as this is the 3rd entry I have played. I don't think this game is bad by any means, it has interesting ideas with some designs it brings in, such as some companions helping you out, cute cutscenes, and some levels letting you toy around with the abilities, and the penultimate boss testing you on your knowledge, along with mixing abilities which can be really helpful, but other aspects of its level designs, speed, shard collecting, and abilities themselves is also a hinderance. Long story short, I didn't really enjoy this game that much, but I also feel like I did not waste my time with it, it's a weird spot which can be generalized to "it's not my cup of tea".

outside of the notorious health concerns. It reeks of first game with it being very a lot of unbalanced minigames, SOME weird boards, and janky controls. Not all of the boards are bad. Yoshi’s and Peach’s got refined later on but the base still remains here with them still at least being decent. This is the game you’d NEED to play with friends, because outside of needing every Star and coin from non-CPU, everything else will mess you up. Its not a terrible game, but its the one that has aged the worse.
