Kirby 64
Reviewed by: Mike Black

Kirby is 2 dementional and much of the time is spent sucking enemies and pressing Down on the control pad to adopt the powers of your food. The bosses are insanely easy, so you should whip through this short game in one try. Kirby 64 was long awaited. Too bad it wasn't worth the wait.

BASIC OVERVIEW

Kirby is 1-4 players. In the one player game you go through the levels eat enemies and find crystal shards. You heal by eating food you find. By eating an enemy you get a special power depending on the creature you ate.

2-4 players there are three mini games which i would describe as low budget but fun.

MORE DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS

Characters: The characters are Kirby, His friend, painter, and king tutma. You can only play as Kirby except in the mini games.

Identities: You get identities by eating and enemy and pressing down. You can combine two identities by 1st pressing L (this turns your identity into a ninja star shape) and throwing it at an enemy. Your identity can be anything form a lightsaber to turning into a refrigerator.

Mini Games:

• Checkerboard Battle: In this you are on a giant checker board and you can make suqares disappear. The goal is to make you apponents fall off.
• Fruit Basket: In this you are underneath 4 trees and fruits fall. You compete against the others to see who can catch the most fruit.
• 100 meter Hop: This is the worst of the 3. You press A to hop 1 space and B to hop 2. There are puddles that you slip in if you land there. and frogs that run in front of you. 1st person across the finish wins.
