Kirby Squeak Squad

I just got this game! It's really good! It's a bit short, though. Anyone else have it?

One of the annoying things, though, is that you can only mix certain abilitys (example: fire+sword=fire sword) and not all of them. Bah!

Kirby games are always annoyingly short.

I don't know if I'll get this one or not...

I got Kirby Sqeak Squad today for X-Mas. Very fun and challenging Boss fights. Especially Mecha-Kracko.

I might get it this week if I feel like it, I dunno if it's any good though, so I need opinions.

I thought it was terrible. Kirby is overpowered, the new abilities suck (metal and animal especially, these two have no real use) the power mixing is only 5 different combinations (
Spoiler Below
ice sword, fire sword, lightning sword, ice bomb, lightning bomb
]), powerful abilities are everywhere (i.e. UFO and tornado, though there are about 2 UFOs in all the worlds except the last one, and in the last one there are about 200); it's extremely short, and extremely easy. The last boss was the weakest thing I've ever fought. I brought 3 maxim tomatoes to the final boss and didn't use any. Not the final boss that you actually heard about in the game, (which, in a typical Kirby twist, isn't actually final, but for some reason is much harder than the true final boss), I'm talking about the
Spoiler Below
random, dark energy-ish final boss that is in every Kirby game with a different name.

And it was glaringly linear with a feigned sense of non-linearity to it. You complete each level and move on to the next. You do so for a few short, short worlds, and the only choice is an 'EX' level that you can do once you find the key hidden in a chest. It doesn't matter, none of the levels affect each other anyway. There's one 'EX' level in each world. The linearity was a huge disappointment after KATAM.
Kirby: Squeak Squad was a huge disappointment.

There was some good to it, though. I had a lot of fun during the battle with Metaknight (I only came in with a sword and nothing else and was at almost no HP left when I won after an action-packed, fast-paced battle) and the pseudo-final battle was slightly challenging for someone who didn't come in with tornado or UFO. I liked some of the spraypaint colors they added in (esp. Citrus, which I used for most of the game) and some of the other cosmetic things were interesting for a few seconds. It's fun at some points, but it has that air of 'mediocre sequel' to it.

6.5/10

Your decision to get it or not.

Of course the game is linear. Its a side scroller.

Um, linear as in having to do everything in a certain order. Like how you could do things in a different order in KATAM.

The whole Bubble System reminded me of how the Copy System worked in Milky Way Wishes or whatever that mode was called in Kirby Super Star.

Magic and Ninja are absolutely fun.

Still, nothing can beat Kirby Super Star these days.

I am aware that these games are short, I played it for like 30 seconds today (My friends has a copy) and I beat the first part of level 1.



Double Post, but I'm just saying that I got it.

Could you be a little bit more in depth?

Erm sure. Well for starters its a Kirby game and they rock. New abilities such as Water and Ghost. I disagree with Kirby being overpowered. You lose your ability every time an enemy attacks you and I don't remember that from other games. I'll tell you more but right now im busy doing something.

Anybody else noticed that when Kirby has the Ninja ability, he can not only walk on water, but his Fire Jitsu turns into a Water Jitsu?
