Game Review: Kirby: Squeak Squad
2022-Nov-28, Monday 08:39
A Kirby game that I'm not a big fan of? It's more likely than I thought. 
Squeak Squad used to be a meme for me (and others) because the contrast between its beginning and ending is so vast. Despite that, there's a lot of posts across the internet asking if it's the worst Kirby game out there. Since I don't play Kirby games for the challenge, I play them for cuteness and fun, I thought this must be exaggerated and maybe there was some redeemable core stuck underneath all the complaints but honestly, the collective wisdom of the internet is right this time. This game took me close to two months to beat, just because playing it was such a slog. I finally forced myself to sit down, do a level at a time, and slowly ground it over over the course of the last couple of weeks, and "slowly ground it out" are not words you should use with a Kirby game.
The meme is good though:
Beginning of Kirby game vs end of Kirby game.
