Powerups like Mario Kart litter the track, but they’re Kiby’s copy abilities like Tornado, Jelly or turning him into a wheel for a speed boost. At first, it’s a race to the finish through a course made out of food collecting strawberries. Only the biggest Kirby will win, so it’s a balance between racing, collecting strawberries and jousting with your fellow racers. You race your Kirby against other Kirby’s to collect more strawberries than the others. Kirby’s Dream Buffet is a simple and fun enough concept for anyone to pick up. Taking inspiration from Fall Guys, Mario Party and even Smash Bros, Kirby’s Dream Buffet does borrow a lot, has a lot going on – it’s just a lot. Kirby’s Dream Buffet is a game that deserves to be played the opposite of its name.
Kirby fans have been eating well lately, and Kirby’s Dream Buffet might prove that while a lot of something is good, eventually, you might get sick of it.
