A very solid Kirby adventure, though I will say the bosses rely on the fighting in the foreground and background gimmick way too heavily. Very often I found myself waiting an agonizing amount of time just to lay some hits on the bosses. And just like Forgotten Land, I feel the keychains were pointless padding, but ultimately harmless. Overall though, a great time.
do I even need to explain myself? everything I said in my base xenoblade 3 review applies here too.

God of War is a really solid and fun game, but I feel the combat can feel a bit jank at times, in addition, I didn't feel compelled to do any side content, as it seemed tacked on. however, the story was easily the best part. The music easily enhanced the Atmosphere as well and the visuals are still quite breathtaking.
Overall a good time. I don’t think it’s my favorite 2D Zelda (then again I prefer 3D Zelda) but it’s still a great game, and it’s short too so it won’t take up too much time.
Easily one of the best Kirby games. I really liked this one. I will say going for 100% did get a bit tiring. But it was overall a very pleasant experience.

Overall, I found the game enjoyable, but there were some snags. The story was... fine. I liked the characters and found them the reason I watched the cutscenes through, it all felt unfocused and inconsistent. The visuals were very nice and colorful, however you can still see the roots of it being a Sonic fan game. Combat also felt button mashy and many of my wins in the late game felt like luck. But it still comes with a high recommendation.

An incredible improvement over the first game in just about every regard. The visuals, level design, boss fights, and ESPECIALLY the story. I genuinely found the story incredibly engaging, and I was invested in the characters, even the antagonists like Merga. I can't wait to take some time to play as the other characters like MIlla or Carol. My main complaint was some of the levels went on a bit too long, and there were two I didn't like, such as the secret final level, but that's two meh levels out of a sea of bangers. This game gets a high recommendation.
Pretty damn great game. It definitely feels like a PSP game with how it's structured, and many optional missions you get later in the game are repetitive and feel like slug fests to see who gets one shot first. But other than that, I had a good time!
a stain on the pants of god.
It was alright. just kinda felt jank and like a first attempt at a full game outside of the fangames this developer has made. But overall it's fine enough. Worth a play.

The best Sonic game since Sonic Generations, and this is coming from someone who enjoyed Lost World. The music is stellar, the visuals look really nice outside of the pop-in, the game controls very well too. Although there are some snags. Such as the physics in Cyberspace levels being garbage, hated them. but overall, a HUGE step in the right direction, and a promising look into the future of Sonic.
While going for true 100% was a bit of a chore, I still very much enjoyed my time here. Easily one of the best Wii rereleases.
Great time. Although it dragged a bit at the end, and the final boss straight up cheats.
Wish the final boss didn’t crash on me but great game.
