Kirby Mass Attack (out today) is getting really good reviews. Here’s one in particular:

There will inevitably be Kirby purists who will baulk at the rather unorthodox gameplay concept behind Kirby Mass Attack, but if they do they’ll be missing out on one of Kirby’s most unique adventures to date. While there are a few extremely minor control issues that pop up from time to time, the touchscreen-only controls perform well, making the game an absolute joy to play. In truth, Kirby Mass Attack might very well be the closest thing to a Canvas Curse sequel we’ll ever likely see and proves to be yet another extremely charming and engaging Kirby adventure.

After hosting out-of-town relatives this weekend, I’m excited to bust open my copy today.
