Kirby's Return to Dreamland (Nintendo Wii)

I bought this game for my son and he loves it! It has great graphics, lots of levels to beat, and plenty of extra levels to find. It has a simple story for the kids to follow and easy access to "how to's" for each Kirby character you change into. My son says the game is excellent.

As a fan of the original Kirby, this game stays very true to the original - with some new added twists such as the super powers. The multi player was very well done and the mini games were actually challenging, even for me and my girlfriend (both in our early 20's). The story was perfect for children and younger audiences, while not excessively deep or confusing. It took us a good solid 20 hours to finish the game picking up all the hidden gears in each stage, some of which required pretty impressive gaming skill and puzzle solving. Platformers are becoming a niche genre, but this game stands out as a sound addition to the Wii lineup. I would definitely recommend this title for younger people, any Wii owners looking for a simple straightforward multiplayer platformer, parents wanting to play a game with this kids, and any fans of the Kirby series. It was a nice change of pace from the multiplayer shooters we've grown so used to.
