Kirby is back after been away for so long.

User Rating: 8 | Kirby's Epic Yarn WII
Many people will know the character Kirby from Smash Bros but in fact he began on the NES with the likes of Mario,Zelda and Metroid.

Story

Yin Yarn has turned Dreamland into a world of Chaos with everything cover in string from Kirbys enemies to his world. With the help of Fluff, Kirby must find pieces of the Magic Yarn to restore Dreamland to it's rightful state.

Gameplay

The game mainly plays on a 2D plane but some doors can see you go into the background to collect stuff. Kirby can glide when dropping and also run faster by tapping forward on the D Pad which is how the game plays like a typical sidescroller.

Kirby can collect jewels which add to currency and end of level score as well as items for his pad and even music from the level. Kirby can buy new stuff for his pad but that doesn't really matter that much and feels unnecessary.

In some levels Kirby can transport into objects like a tank,train,spaceship and other various types of vehicles. The game has about 3 or 4 levels before you face a boss but you can access other levels based on score from previous stages and you can even play with 2 players competing for the top score.

One massive flaw with the game though is you can't die you lose jewels but you will never die and that it being a platform game can be unforgivable even on bosses as well because when it comes to bosses in games you do die a few times in most games before beating them.

Presentation

The game itself looks fantastic one if not the nicest looking game on the Wii next to the likes of Mario Galaxy and Skyward Sword. It adds nice character and shows hardware isn't to important.

Lastability

About 8 to 10 hours maybe more for the perfectionist but after beating it there really isn't much to go back for.

Overall Opinion

A great title that is worth playing through at least once. It has alot of charm and the graphics are nice and catchy but the main drawback is you can't die in the game but don't let that put you off playing a great Wii title.

Overall Score 8.0
