Kirby Squeak Squad (NDS) – Review

While the previous Kirby game for the DS was an excellent outing for the system, it did vary significantly from its predecessors in the gameplay style, relying more on the stylus than a standard platforming system. On the other hand, the latest reinvention of Kirby for the DS, Kirby Squeak Squad, produced by HAL Laboratories and distributed by Nintendo, is a return to a standard 2D platformer with a few tricks added in to use the DS touch screen effectively. While the game is very true to it’s roots, it unfortunately lacks a challenge for most experienced gamers and may be over with before the fun really sets in.
