Video Game Reviews of Kirby and The Amazing Mirror
Customer Review: Kirby Forever!
Summary: 5 Stars
Kirby the Amazing Mirror is a game that can be played over and over. It never loses its appeal, and the auto save makes it a great game to play in short, 10-minute stretches. Here are some of the major features that I think add the bounce to this game -
-Replay Value
I have never played another game with this much replay value. Kirby is not the sort of game that you play for the plot, so the experience of a fresh, new game is still there when you start up that new file.
-Unlockables
Kirby is heavily based on a reward system of unlockables. There are items hidden in treasure chests all over the mirror world, and once the treasure chests have been opened, the items are stored in a place called the collection room. These items include items that make the gameplay easier, such as extra slots for Kirby's health points (once you collect all of these, Kirby can be damaged by the enemy 10 times before losing a life), as well as items that just amuse the player, like spray paints to color your Kirby different shades and a sound test that lets you play all of the music and sounds in the game when you collect music sheets (yet another unlockable.) There is also an unlockable mini-game, an unlockable power room (more on this later)... even the Final Boss level is unlockable, from gathering all of the pieces of the amazing mirror. These items make it very rewarding to play the game.
-Puzzle AND action
There is more to Kirby than simply running through levels and defeating enemies. There is a puzzle aspect of the game, where Kirby has to collect certain powers from swallowing enemies to get past certain parts of the game. These include the Burning power to burn through metal blocks, and the Mini power to crawl through tight passageways. These tasks become much easier when you unlock the special Power Room, which gives you free access to all of the powers except a select few, and they are extremely simplified when, after defeating the Final Boss, you gain a special power called Master, which can apparently solve all puzzles.
-Everyone can play it
The game of Kirby is a game that is simple enough so that it can be played by young children, yet it is still satisfying to older players. There are no bloody or otherwise graphic scenes that are to be avoided. In addition, the squishiness and general cuteness of a Kirby appeals to plenty of people, me included. :D
Overall, the Kirby game is a great title, and I highly recommend it. Kirby Forever!

Summary: 5 Stars
Kirby is really cool. He is pink, squishy, cute, and is so popular he even has his own tv show.
About the game: It is so fun and, while it did take me a while to beat the game, that is one of the good things about it. It's not like, once you beat the big boss, it's all over. You have to explore every nook, cranny, and corner to find all the items and get 100%.
Kirby having 3 new buddies that look a lot like him is exciting and fun, and while they don't always do everything you want them to, they are VERY helpful if you're fighting a tough boss. Plus, the ability to call your friends or even a flying star taxi with kirby's new CELL PHONE is new, fun, and helpful if you're in a jam.
Another thing I want to mention is the mini-games. They are really fun, and I like being able to choose the difficulty so I'm not way in over my head.
Overall, this is one of my favorite games and I highly recommend it to anyone with a thirst for adventure, fun, and cute pink characters!
