    I just beat the game. It was great! I love how the game is in 3d. I truly believe that the developers put their heart ands soul into it. I mean yeah it may not be mario 64 3dish but honestly it didn't need to be. It was still a somewhat open game. with the levels giving you plenty of room to explore.

However the final boss was something I didn't expect at all. Lastly I love how alive the woddle dee town is and the music is somewhat memorable. Expand

    Looks incredibly stunning. Great soundtrack. The level design is amazing with a lot of secrets and collectibles. Their is a ridiculous amount of content in this game it is insane. The controls and movement are easy to master. New features like mouthful mode and Waddle Dee Village add variety and depth to the game. The production values are great.

    Co-op is local only which is a real shame. The game is fairly short if you only stick to the main path

    Thoughts-
    When playing through Kirby and the Forgotten Land, there was one word that came to my mind repeatedly, over and over again – “delightful”. It might sound like a bit of a cliched refrain, but it really fits. Everything the game does just made me smile. Yes, there are a few minor unnecessary errors, but I honestly stopped trying to keep track of those, and went along for the ride. And what a delightful, joyous, smile inducing ride it has been. If happiness was distilled into a video game, it would be Kirby and the Forgotten Land.

    The game does absolutely everything right. The level design is great, the music is great, the story is great like just about everything is near perfect. I just wish that Mario also could do the same but a lot of his games suffers from basic game design and hopefully the next Kirby games will got me covered

    The pink puffball never misses. This has got to be one of the best switch games ever made. I had a total blast playing it for hours and hours. The gameplay is phenomenal and so is the story. I am very interested to see what the next installment has to offer!

    What can I say other than that this game is an absolute masterpiece? You have to complete it to see it but man, I dropped playing Elden Ring for this and have not regretted a single second.

    I'm not even a fan of Kirby, (well I wasn't until now) not quite sure why the ratings are not alot higher. My only gripe would be the same problem Sekiro has, and that is it's replayability. Even so

The bosses are easier than ever, and overall the entire game feels like if I was in early game 24/7

    Nintendo was aware of this which is why they locked the true ending into re-visiting the entire 10 hours story all over again like same layout but a diferent palette + thougher enemies just to get the exact same ending as before with even more boring bossfights. Idk chief, I feel like I had enough already.

    Kirby is in it, it's mildly entertaining, but this just doesn't feel like a Kirby game.

Kirby is one of my top favorite game series and characters and everything that makes a Kirby game was missing here. Is it a 10? Ha no way. Why would you ever rate this 10? This couldKirby is in it, it's mildly entertaining, but this just doesn't feel like a Kirby game. It feels like a Mario 3D Land game Kirby got shoed into with gimmicks to make you chuckle a couple times, rinse & repeat. Kirby is one of my top favorite game series and characters and everything that makes a Kirby game was missing here. Is it a 10? Ha no way. Why would you ever rate this 10? This could have been released on the Wii it's so dated. In my book it's in the worst 5 games.

    It starts with the cut scenes, which lack any sound effects and just feel like they cheaply cut the budget. Was is a design decision? Probably, but it seems a very 3DS decision not a Switch decision. There was no practical reason to not have sound effects in the cut scenes and it just makes them feel broken or unfinished. The opening of the game has an anime like song and you lose track of what this game is supposed to be right away.

    This Kirby game the main focus is obviously two things, mouthful mode and the world. Which means the adventure, the music, and the characters all lack creativity. Take the easy going no challenge nature of every Kirby game you've played and turn it to max easy then make it so grandma will want to play the coop mode with you and you have your Kirby game.

    So let's talk about mouthful mode. It's cute, but boring. After the first time you encounter each of the modes you know exactly what to do and where to go for any secrets because it's always incredibly obvious. There's no interesting mechanics or unexpected creative things they did, it's just right in your face obvious. They repeat through a lot of levels and then bonus levels use them but after the cuteness of the first time they wear down and look like a gimmick. Other Kirby games up the weirdness or creativity of the powerups but this one just lays flat.

    Now onto the world. The graphics look sort of pretty but nothing ground breaking. Nothing Mario Odyssey level. In fact most levels have slowdown issues and framerate problems. The 3D of the world is more like an on rails 3D box like old school 3D games of long ago. It feels like if someone tried to remake Kirby Crystal Shards. It's like a 2.8D game and there's no openness or exploration. It feels very restricted and when you see things in the distance they don't run at full framerate.

    Still yet, the world gives you no plotline as you play. Why are you here? What is everything? Why is Kirby here? What's going on? Is this a different planet from other games? What is the point of the forgotten land? People talk about story, but there's no story it's just some cut scenes and text over the screen that barely explain anything. The story is disjointed and meaningless.

    The biggest failure of this game is the music. Kirby music is its own thing, a genre of itself. This was a desperate attempt to bring Kirby into the symphonic modern soundtrack like they did with Mario and it did not work. One main song plays over and over but with a slight difference depending on the world. It gets old fast. The music is boring and flat. It doesn't feel upbeat or wild like in every other Kirby game. I can name some of my favorite Kirby songs by their level and game but in this one the only good song was in some factory and it was like low key dubstep sort of. The only Kirby soundtrack I won't buy.

    It's fine if Kirby games are easy. Epic Yarn is one of my favorites and that was beyond easy but it was very Kirby and it was extra adorable. This one takes itself so serious and then stumbles out the door just to stare at a flower for a while. I beat this game in a few hours and while doing it finished most of the challenges leaving me with very little to do after one afternoon of play time. Wild mode is not wild at all. The only difficult thing is maybe one or two of the bosses but still, their patterns are very simple.

    I don't know what people love about this. It had a huge amount of potential and I was excited for an open world Kirby game which this wasn't at all. The controls are pretty unpolished and the game feels sluggish and has bad pacing. Bad forced perspective 3D makes it difficult to judge placement of characters and sometimes you can't even tell if you're in the air or on the ground. Each level is over so fast you wonder what you missed. That would be fine for a regular Kirby game but this doesn't beg exploration, it's a very linear progression with maybe a secret or two in a level.

    There's no Kirby canon, the dances are all the same thing, the power ups are the same we've seen, the upgrades are neat but nothing special, and I'm not going to rave about a game with dated concepts and tired ideas. At least they tried but there were better Kirby games on the DS & 3DS. Pick up an older Kirby game for half the price and have more fun.

    Several of the Switch exclusive/Nintendo Staple games have been lacking since the Switches launch 5 years ago. Both Mario Parties, while decent, just don't capture the same kind of party game excitement as they did on systems liked the Game Cube or the Wii.

Both Mario Parties, while decent, just don't capture the same kind of party game excitement as they did on systems liked the Game Cube or the Wii. Mario 3D world is incredible, but is just a port of a game from another system. And Bowsers Fury, also incredible, is very short lived and can be beaten in an hour and a half if you put your mind to it. Now we have Kirby. a game that genuinely thrills and excites the way that Nintendo games are supposed to. HAL Labs has done what Nintendo's first party devs seem unable to do, make a game that brings the player in without sacrificing what has always made the character successful.

    Kirby finds himself on a new planet and, in more ways then one, a new dimmension. The first for the series 3D adventure is visually stimulating and harkens back to Mario Odyssey levels of exploration in the search for the errant Waddle Dees and Gachapon balls. As the game progresses I get to feel as though I, as Kirby, am getting stronger thanks to the blueprints that you can easily find throughout the levels. The gameplay is smooth with some useful tricks hidden in dialogue for those who want to speedrun the game or just beat the time trial challenges along Treasure Road. No matter what you want to accomplish in Kirby and the Forgotten Land you are able to do it and you will most likely have fun the entire time. The only reason this game isn't a 10 for me is that I wish there were more post game content. the entire game can be beaten in a total of about 8 hours, and if you wanted to 100% the game you're only really looking at a total of 15 hours of gameplay, by conservative estimates. For $60 I would prefer there to be either more boss rush style stages in the arena, or even a new game plus mode where you can't get as many health items and the enemies are a bit tougher. Regardless maybe with some DLC or free updates this game will hit the 10 spot. but for now Kirby and the Forgotten Land will have a permanent spot on the list of games that are MUST PLAY for the Nintendo Switch.

Secondly, the movement options are not nearly as good as a Mario game, which is partly why those games are so good in the first place. There are some ways to make movement faster, but they usually rely on specific abilities you might not come across at a convenient time. Overall though, this is a great Nintendo game that only really gets outshined by the better Switch titles such as Odyssey and Smash.

    Resumen: un juego de sobresaliente, proponiendo la aventura de Kirby más ambiciosa en muchos de sus aspectos, con un nivel de epicidad a la altura del resto de la saga e incluso superándolo. Banda sonora perfecta y jugabilidad sublime. Exploración y mundos muy bonitos y bien construidos. Combates memorables y muy interesantes. Si buscas accesibilidad, cualquiera puede pasarse el juego e ir a por el 100%; si buscas un reto, también lo tendrás, pues es la obra de Kirby más accesible hasta el momento, y a los que busquen dificultad, les podrá hacer sudar la gota gorda completarlo entero.

    Desarrollo/Trama: en la tónica habitual, una historia que comienza con extrañezas en el mundo de Kirby, y se desarrolla desenfadada a lo largo de la aventura de nuestra bola rosa, pero con giritos en ciertos puntos que te van dando pie a contemplar que esto es mucho más que una alegre aventura por rescatar a los Waddle Dees, y que van permitiéndote atisbar las trazas de epicidad detrás de los enfrentamientos y las ocurrencias que poco a poco se van desarrollando, con un giro final en la tónica de volarte la cabeza con su puesta en escena rompedora con cualquier prejuicio que pudiera nadie tener de la saga en su desenfadado aspecto. Sin decir nada más, cuenta lo que quiere contar, y todo el desarrollo de la misma está muy bien orquestado.

    Jugabilidad: perfecta, simplemente perfecta. Desde la nueva mecánica para esquivar, hasta el uso de los poderes, sus controles, sus mejoras y lo divertido que es moverte por el mundo, explorar, combatir, etc... Es como tiene que ser, y es incluso mejor de lo que lo esperaba en un primer momento, viniendo de los Kirby clásicos, donde la forma de combatir y esquivar era siempre buscar huecos en la pantalla/escenario donde el jefe o enemigos no ejecutasen sus ataques o en los cuales éstos no lleguen con sus rangos, llegando a la actualidad con este juego, donde bailar alrededor de los ataques de los enemigos de forma activa, pretendiendo buscar el hueco en su defensa mientras esquivas y aprovechas los tiempos de contraataque para castigar, y aprendiéndote sus patrones y mejores momentos para hacer esto último y así evitar daños innecesarios.

    Diseño de niveles: en la tónica de un Kirby. El 3D le ha sentado muy bien para hacer los mundos más amplios y más rebuscados de completar, dando pie a misiones interesantes y un plataformeo, dentro de lo habitual, pero con toques novedosos para la saga. Todo está puesto con un motivo y los escenarios brillan por permitirte ir rápido a través de ellos o ir poco a poco explorando sus rincones. Acompañados del arte y su música para mejorar la experiencia, me parece que hace muy bien todo en este apartado.

    Arte/Visual: Un juego muy bonito, que cumple de sobra con lo que puede prometer y que otorga un placer visual único con su arte y sus animaciones, sus efectos y los escenarios. A nivel técnico no va a volarle la cabeza a nadie, pero tampoco lo necesita; apuesta por un estilo, y lo perfecciona y cumple a las mil maravillas, siendo un deleite visual contemplar los diferentes entornos y moverte por ellos apreciando tanto lo que tienes cerca como lo que está en los fondos.

    Banda sonora: obra maestra, no voy a argumentar más. Lo mejor visto en un Kirby hasta la fecha, en todos los aspectos. Acompaña cada escena, cada escenario, y cada combate y momento a la absoluta perfección. Fin.

    Dificultad: accesible al 100%. Si quieres un reto, sabes cómo tenerlo. Si quieres algo sencillo y desenfadado, también. Ir a por el 100% sigue siendo satisfactorio y un auténtico reto para los que así lo quieran.

    Duración: en las líneas de un Kirby. No es demasiado largo de completar en aspectos de la historia o campaña principal, y de duración correcta y habitual para el 100% del juego. También tiene muchas cositas y detalles para disfrutar poco a poco y "prolongar" su vida útil. No tengo queja al respecto.

    Opinión: me ha encantado, todo lo descrito anteriormente ha hecho una experiencia muy disfrutable de este título para mí, con ganas de seguir jugando incluso tras completarlo al 100% y seguir retándome en los combates de la Arena con diferentes poderes, mejorarlos todos, etc... Un juego al que seguramente volveré con el tiempo para completarlo de nuevo. Para mí, una obra maestra. Y como no sé qué más decir, dejo aquí la review.

    Disfrutad del juego y dejaos de "es muy corto, es muy fácil, los enemigos del fondo muy fondo se ven a 15 fps vaya mierda". Es una experiencia a la altura que incluso supera a sus predecesores en muchos aspectos, y como juego de plataformas-acción es sublime.

    Really cool game, fun to play with friends and really fun and easy (classic Kirby game difficulty) to complete. Beautiful grafic but it goes at 30 frames and it’s understandable for a Kirby game, it also have a great story! Good job Hal and Nintendo!

    I have always been a kirby fan, but the last few games felt a bit repetitive reusing the same gameplay style as in return to dremland. But this game feels fresh and new, the main hub has many things to do and the world is full of fun challenges and the levels themselves feel great, bringing back the missions from dream land 3 was also fun to see. And the soundtrack is also amazing. II have always been a kirby fan, but the last few games felt a bit repetitive reusing the same gameplay style as in return to dremland.

    I was worried that Kirby's first 3d adventure might be too easy like Star Allies but I really enjoyed it.

    I even died during the initial try on a couple of levels. It is still on the easy side, but offers just enough challenge to bring some excitement to the game. The time to complete the game is still very short as you won't be stuck on any level for long but every minute was so

    If the prospect of a level-based 3D platformer that gives you an extensive and creative moveset, a light focus on level exploration and light puzzle solving with stunning, colorful visuals and an spectacular orchestrated soundtrack is attractive to you, you're in for a great time with this game.

    Additionally, players wanting a deeper challenge besides the main campaign are offered a much more challenging post-game and boss rush mode. Add these to the exploration factor, short challenge levels and hub area mini-games and you're in for about 20 hours of content with very little padding, all of which can be enjoyed by up to two players in local co-op.

    For Kirby veterans, I will add that the conversion of Kirby's moveset to a three dimensional space is completely flawless and feels very natural.
    One of my personal highlights of this new three dimensional Kirby gameplay are the boss fights, which are much more focused on the new dodge mechanic (comparable to those found in FromSoft or Monster Hunter games, while being much easier to pull off). The harder post-game bosses are an absolute blast thanks to this new combat system.

    It should also be noted that the number of available copy abilities has greatly reduced compared to the dozens of options Star Allies gave us. The lowest in the main series actually, numbering 12 (two of which are Sleep and Crash, single use abilities without a real moveset).
    However, this is far from a deal breaker and isn't nearly as impactful as it may initially seem. The new copy ability evolution mechanic allows you to "upgrade" them gradually, with Sleep and Crash getting a single upgrade and the rest getting at least two.
    These upgrades range from complete moveset overhauls, to boosts in power, range or rate of fire. It should also be noted that this is the best some classic abilities have ever been and that both new additions, Ranger and Drill, play great and feature concepts new to the series, like attacking enemies from below the ground or dual wielding 19th century style firearms with a fancy hat to match.

    The new mouthful mode is a blast too, adding variety to stages and working in a similar way to the fan- favorite Robobot armor, in the sense that it expands Kirby's moveset in an organic and engaging way, rather than turning him into an unstoppable force of mass destruction (i.e. Super Abilities and Hypernova).

    In regards to the story and contributions to Kirby lore, I will say without getting into spoilers that it absolutely delivers, being in the same vein as the previous titles. Don't expect a jaw-dropping game-changing reveal like in Star Allies, but expect the usual awesome final boss and loosely explained backstory to keep us hardcore fans entertained with crazy theories and such.

    The game of course isn't perfect, with my main complaint being the restrictive co-op (the second player can only play as Bandana Dee and can't explore on their own, with the camera focusing a little too much on Kirby).
    But overall, for the much anticipated first fully-fledged 3D Kirby adventure, this game delivers and exceeds my personal expectation. Get it, play it, enjoy it and if it's your first venture into the series make sure to check out the great games that came before it. Adventure, Super Star, Dream Land 3 and 64 are all available on Switch and other games on GB, GBA, DS, 3DS and Wii are all fantastic too.

    Kirby games are fun, but it's very difficult for them to really "wow" me. This one didn't blow me away as much as I was hoping, but it's still a very worth while adventure and great step into the 3D platformer genre for the series.

    The game feels a lot like Super Mario 3D World with a hint of Galaxy and Odyssey, however Kirby does have the slight disadvantage of being as fluid as 3D

    The game feels a lot like Super Mario 3D World with a hint of Galaxy and Odyssey, however Kirby does have the slight disadvantage of being as fluid as 3D Mario games are. It does feel like any other modern Kirby game, with new mechanics and features thrown in to keep it fresh. If you like the standard Kirby formula, there's a lot to like here. Kirby fans of both classic and modern will enjoy this game thoroughly, even if Kirby games as a whole don't do a lot for me. That said, I can't deny the great things about this game; the levels are well designed, the music is great, and it makes you want to keep playing to see what the surprise at the end of the game is going to be!

    A very solid game overall and a recommendation for anyone looking for a good 2 player co-op game for the Switch. Not perfect, but still worth playing through, cause you'll for sure have a good time!

    A wonderful entry into the Kirby series that manages to both feel like a clean slate while still pulling from the emotions and lore of past titles.

    Fun mid-length levels combined with fast paced side levels give the player more than enough variety to play through the main storyline, combined with side challenges and content to satiate the hunger of the higher difficulty chasers. In classic Kirby fashion, the game delivers narrative and gameplay separately, allowing the player to tailor their own playstyles while still enjoying the story given.

    The beginning of the game starts off easy and consistent, allowing players of all ages to take a step into the world and grow accustomed to new mechanics and gameplay. Kirby atFL doesn't necessarily offer much innovation, but instead focuses on stability and a constant gameplay loop that provides players of all ages with a satisfying, fun time. The game doesn't make a promise of difficult content, but still brings about a tougher and more focused endgame that fans of any games will find something enjoyable about.

    Overall, Kirby and the Forgotten Land doesn't make any leaps or bounds in enhancing the gaming industry, but instead takes an inward look at Kirby himself. You'll find a light-hearted pink puffball taking on familiar challenges in new ways, and the delightful platformer brings a sense of enjoyment at each turn.

    The game obviously tries not to keep you needlessly long in a single level and is, as is traditional in the series, fairly accessible to players of all ages and abilities, so that it only asks for a challenge at specific moments. It's a shame that those great imaginative worlds and cool puzzles aren't used more. [Issue#319]
