    Kirby’s first outing on the Switch is a step down from his 3DS adventures. While its allies system isn’t as complex as I would have liked, complexity is not really what Kirby players are looking for. It’s hard to compete in the joy department on a system that already has Super Mario Odyssey, but Kirby Star Allies shares that good feeling throughout. Playing the game just makes you smile. It’s a great choice to share with friends even if they’re not normal gamers.

    If you have kids, Star Allies is as obvious a recommendation as they come- they will love to play it, either solo, or with you, and it will lead to some great times and memories for everybody. On the other hand, seasoned gamers and long time Kirby fans won't find much that is substantial here.

    I like the game. It's very cute and it is somewhat like a Mario game. The only thing I disagree with is that it can be very easy when having 3 allies with you. I want a challenge and to be tested while having a great time. Sure, I'm liking the game. I just feel sad when I leave the ally behind. I don't know why. Overall, I had a lot of fun with the gameplay, the quality, and the genre of platforming. If there was something more and had a little bit harder option, it would have been a 10/10 instantly!
