With each course presenting a tantalising opportunity to snatch a win, whiling away hours is easy. Losing is still encouraging, since no player has a massive advantage over another, which means victory always seems a few inches away. It also levels the playing field – if you’re good at the races, you can get by just fine, but it’s easy enough to have victory slip from you in the final moments of each game. There’s a build-up in the drama until you get to the finale – and that makes your moves all the more frantic.
It’s really anyone’s game until the battle royale, making each stage a more tense and exciting romp.
You lose some strawberries in the process, and your opponent gains some, lessening your advantage. If you’re standing near an enemy Kirby that activates any of these abilities in the battle royale stage, you’re usually sent flying off-screen.
If you’ve got a massive advantage over your fellow competitors with hoarded strawberries from the first three mini-games, you can get away with rarely trying in the final battle royale – but it’s here where your mettle is tested most.Įach Main Course battle royale takes place on a themed stage where strawberries drop frequently, and special boxes can drop Copy Food Abilities for Kirby – the primary abilities are a ground pound, flaming roll, high-speed roll, fast ooze (jelly), and a tornado twist. So while you can certainly put a laser focus on conquering every food-themed course, Kirby’s Dream Buffet actually prioritises a more well-rounded approach. Winning races doesn’t guarantee victory – it only grants you more strawberries. Each strawberry you consume makes Kirby grow bigger, lending him more heft and power on the battlefield – until he’s ridiculously big, and ridiculously blobby (which can make it difficult to tramp through some races). Your goal, as Kirby, is to eat as many strawberries as possible by collecting them in the races, fighting for them in mini-game action, and nabbing them in quick battle royale fights. But how you do that is as funny as it is strange. In Kirby’s Dream Buffet, you play as a cutesy, bouncy Kirby with a single goal: to reach the end of a multi-stage course, and come out the other end victorious. Kirby’s Dream Buffet already has that in spades. It’s downright adorable – but the cuteness is not a replacement for substance. It’s also the way Kirby sits in the game’s multiplayer waiting area, and players can let out a heart-warming, high-pitched ‘Hiiiii!~’ that kicks off a chain of noisy Kirby glee. The way Kirby squidges his way through tactile, blobby icing during races, and the twists in every food-themed stage. The deep pits of warm, bubbling chocolate. It’s not just Kirby and his adorable antics that hook you in for this multi-stage battle royale party game, it’s the shining, gooey tomatoes. Kirby’s Dream Buffetis built on sheer delight.
