Kirby's Dream Land 3 could've easily been a great game - It mostly relies on exactly the same things that made the previous Kirby games so good, but for some reason HAL decided to drastically change the gameplay by making it too slow and too easy. Diehard Kirby fans will no doubt get some enjoyment out of this title, but it isn't very hard to see why it's usually considered the worst Kirby game.
Happy 25th anniversary, Kirby! App Trigger celebrates by revisiting Kirby's eight cutest Copy Abilities.
HeyPoorPlayer's Kenny McKee writes- "By 1997, Nintendo’s “Kirby” franchise was already relatively known. Many games in the series had come out by this time, and the series was even popular enough to earn a few spinoffs in the few short years that it had been alive. One year before, the Super Nintendo game “Kirby’s Super Star” had been released on the SNES and was so widely liked by gamers, that it remains relatively famous to this day. The game sported several new features, such as the ability to create helpers (CPU or P2-controlled). Helpers were created based on Kirby’s Copy Ability at the time, and took the form of specially-colored enemies. While there were many new features, perhaps the most exciting feature to gamers was the fact that Kirby’s Copy Abilities no longer consisted of a single attack based on the Ability that Kirby possessed, rather Kirby could perform many special moves with a single Ability. The versatility of these Abilities made the game quite fun, and challenged players to become as good as they could with Kirby’s new powers. Following the success of this game, it was obvious that another game would be released soon. Fans speculated at what could come of the next Kirby Game. Many had hoped for a Kirby’s Super Star 2. The possibilities were endless for the Pink Wonder! True to the prediction, another Kirby game was released a little over a year later. Kirby’s Dreamland 3."
