    Wait for the sale! This is the easiest Kirby game ever; I beat it in 5 hours. Therefore, It should not be $60. I enjoyed the game though, just wish there was a little bit more challenge to it. Get this game for good and fun experience.

    The AI in this game is literally braindead. It just stays there and looks at you while you die and does not use the healing abilities at all. At most bosses the team of 3 AIs stays in a corner and watches you fight the boss alone.

    This makes the endgame levels practically impossible to do alone, you need a couple of friends that are capable of pressing literally a single button when it counts. The AI can't even do that.

    For the later smelter dificulties and the heroes in another dimension, it becomes imbecilic and frustrating so much you'd probably smash your console, when you're about to die and you look at that Chef AI smiling in your face NOT using the healing ability.

    Though it’s not technically perfect by any means, Star Allies remains entertaining from start to finish. Let the puffball meet the misfits, it’s time for Kirby to shine on Switch.

    Simply put, Star Allies looks great, sounds great and plays great. [05/2018, p.47]

    Kirby Star Allies makes the simplicity of smiling a lasting thing. The game is beautiful and has music that impresses by it's quality. The title is very amusing and if you can join three more friends, you will have one of the funniest experiences on the Nintendo Switch. It is an experience that should be appreciated in its entirety.
