Kirby Squeak Squad keeps the Kirby charm and what we love about the franchise, but it doesn't try to do anything different. This game has standard platforming that we've seen before and compared to past games, some things feel like a downgrade. You can't combine abilities and the levels aren't as imaginative. The game can also feel a little messy and repetitive. The Squeak Squad themselves also don't really have a menacing presence, and the fights are a little too easy to add any intensity to them.

Squeak Squad is still a lot of fun though. The Kirby charm is still there and our protagonist doesn't lose any of his likability. The backgrounds in the levels look pretty cool even if the platforming is a little generic. The bubble idea is actually a pretty good idea to give the game a little more strategy to it to see when you should use abilities and health boosts. The graphics are great and the soundtrack is solid. While it's not as good as some of the other Kirby games, Squeak Squad is still a fun experience that I would go through again!
