There's one issue I had with friends and that's that the AI isn't always cooperative. It's not overt hand-holding, but it is a good way to encourage players to try out as many powers and partners as they're offered. Some secret doors will contain a specific enemy or stages will start out with a specific batch of foes to indicate what players will need to proceed forward. In fact, Star Allies' design is often generous in pointing out which specific abilties Kirby needs to either have at his side or absorb himself. This not only makes boss battles easier, but most times these combinations are used to solve specific puzzles. Weapons like Bonkers' mallet or the Kirby sword power can be buffed up by elemental enemies. It becomes more interesting as certain powers can be mixed together to create more powerful abilities. Almost any enemy can be turned into a friend and part of the challenge in this game is finding a team of four that works.
The hook for Star Allies is the ability to make friends, creating a party of up to four characters. It's fun to experiment with different powers, like Kirby's old-school sword and parasol, but it's even cooler to play around with more recent abilities, like the ESP ability from Kirby: Planet Robobot.īut while Kirby is probably more than capable of flying solo, that's not the point of what this game is.
#KIRBY STAR ALLIES REVIEW TEAM FOUR STAR REDDIT SERIES#
The variety in abilities has always been a highlight of this series and Star Allies is no exception. Many powers from Kirby's previous efforts make their return, as do a handful of new abilities. Kirby can flutter jump, swallow baddies, and steal powers from select foes. Nonetheless, Kirby is the right puffball to set things right.Īnyone with even a remote familiarity with Kirby games should know exactly what to expect. So waking up to see dark hearts raining down and corrupting the world's denizens isn't entirely treading new ground. Kirby has seen a lot of weirdness hit Dream Land over the past three decades.
