Game Review: Kirby's Return to Dream Land
2018-Nov-04, Sunday 10:55
I know that November is supposed to be the spooky month, but after Stasis, I wanted something a bit different.
We had a Wii back in 2007, and then when we moved to Japan, we left it behind under the mistaken impression that it wouldn't work with Japanese televisions. That meant that I lost track of basically anything to do with console games, and even series that I liked a lot, like Legend of Zelda or the Kirby games, fell off my radar. Kirby's Return to Dream Land came out at the end of the Wii's lifespan, around the time that Skyward Sword did, but I didn't hear of it until a couple years ago. I heard that it was pretty good, a return to platforming form after Kirby's Epic Yarn had changed up the formula. Sure, it was easy and fluffy, like most Kirby games, but it looked good and was fun to play. And both of those things are true, and those are really exactly what I was looking for.
Or, so I thought.
He's so round and cute.
