GAMEPLAY
good: addictive and doesn't get old

bad: EXTREMELY easy. It's actually pretty embarassing to lose any life at all...

GRAPHICS
good: exceptional character models and fair animations

bad: really kiddy and childish looking, some textures look overpixelated.

SOUND
good: catchy soundtrack, well chosen music for each level

bad: can get kind of repetitive, and the loud SMACK sound when an enemy dies looks and sounds really stupid

VALUE
good: lots of extra items to collect, tons of different enemies

bad: game needs more levels, A LOT more levels, and the levels need to be bigger.

TILT
good: different and more innovative than most sidescrollers, and the power combo system offers new gameplay to the genre

bad: offers nothing new to the Kirby series
