I kept hearing that this is the best Dream Land game, but I think the opposite. This is easily my least favorite of the Dream Land games. It's okay, but it doesn't try anything new. What this game had going for it was that it was continuing the GameBoy franchise for SNES. The SNES obviously has technological advancements so there could've been more to this. For example, Super Mario World took the SNES to it's advantage and made the NES franchise fresh and even better than all of it's predecessors. Dream Land 3 on the other hand doesn't really do much. It is definitely better with graphics and sound, and the OST is beautiful, but the feel of the game is hardly different. The gameplay is the same, the worlds feel the same, and it just feels too generic. Dream Land 2 was the same with that, but at least I found it fun to play and it went by pretty quickly. This game felt a bit slow and the half hour it took for me to beat each world felt like an hour. I didn't get all of the heart stars so Dedede was the final boss for me, and I found that anticlimactic. I know he technically isn't the final boss, but for players who didn't get all of the heart stars, they could've tried to make a better ending. What the game succeeded with though was the charm this series has and it still has it's moments to be really fun. The animal friends are fun to use as well. The abilities are the same but they still are enjoyable. While this isn't my favorite Kirby game, it's still okay. I'd recommend it only to die hard Kirby fans.
