Like most Kirby games, Kirby Triple Deluxe starts off very easy but becomes a nice challenge by the end. The story is simplistic like most Kirby games, but the levels themselves are colorful and have a variety of traditional themes (grasslands, volcanoes, etc.), and the music that accompanies them is quite catchy. Unfortunately, I hardly played the game with the 3DS's 3D effected turned on. That said, it simply provides a visual flare and nothing more. Kirby himself has access to a variety of copy abilities, some useful, some not. For example, I hardly found a use for new Bell or Circus abilities, while the new Archer and Beetle abilities felt very satisfying to use. Some of the returning abilities have lost their useful maneuvers, such as Needle's Rolling Needle attack and Ice's Ice Ball attack. However, other returning abilities, such as Parasol and Sword, remain as great as ever. Besides the story mode, there are the two sub-games, Dedede's Drumdash and Kirby Fighters. Dedede's Drumdash is a short and challenging rhythm action game will fill the player with satisfaction upon completion. Kirby Fighters is a Super Smash Brothers-like fighting game featuring select abilities from the main game. Although I was unable to experimence the multiplayer mode, which is offline only, the sub-game can be entertaining alone, especially on higher difficulties. Of course, like all recent Kirby games, there are extra game modes to unlock after completing the story mode. Alongside these extra game modes are collectable Keychains, which feature sprites from almost every Kirby game. A nice distraction, they can be found scattered throughout levels or obtained by trading in 3 Play Coins. Overall, Kirby Triple Deluxe is a great addition to the Kirby series as well as the 3DS library of games. It's the Kirby that you know and love with the extra spices to keep things fresh and entertaining.
