One of the most visually creative platformers hits the Wii system, but is it any good?

User Rating: 9 | Kirby's Epic Yarn WII
By seaward12 | Review Date:
Kirby's Epic Yarn is a fantastic game that might skew a little younger than experienced gamers might be comfortable with, but the subtle level challenges and the incredibly creative art direction is well worth the experience. This is an amazing looking game that embraces traditional platforming designs in fresh new ways.


Presentation: An amazing direction for the cute pink puff that reintroduces tried-and-true gameplay mechanics in a fresh new way. 9/10

Graphics: The game utilizes the Wii's limitations to an incredible level. The graphics are superb and the animation super-smooth. 9.5/10

Sound: The happy soundtrack fits the cute visual style extremely well, but you might drive friends/coworkers away with some of the more simple tunes. 8/10

Gameplay: It's traditional platforming with a visual style that enhances those traditional designs. It's as good in two player as it is in solo. 9/10

Lasting Appeal: The game is about six hours straight through, but that's not counting the unlockable hide-and-seek modes for all the levels and the additional level path for each world. 7/10

Overall: 9/10
