Review: Kirby and the Forgotten Land is a bold and buoyant adventure

The platforming won’t give Mario any restless nights, but the exuberant creativity around it makes for a bold, buoyant adventure.

  • Escalating powers refresh the action throughout
  • Weird world designs disguise simple platforming
  • A better spread of difficulty options and challenges
  • Mouthform modes are overshadowed by copy abilities
