You Can Create Entirely New Combo Abilities
4 Reasons Why Kirby Star Allies Isn’t Just Another Kirby Game
While the crux of Star Allies is recruiting enemies as companions to help combat the forces against you, they are not there just to tag along. Each enemy has the power to combine their ability with either another team member, or Kirby himself. This means if you recruit an enemy with the Flame ability as well as swallowing the power of Cutter, you’ll be able to combine them, create a Flaming Cutter which can be used to easily dispatch enemies and solve some environmental puzzles.
Combining powers is the key to defeating bosses and finding all the secrets the game has to offer. Some enemies may have big flaming shields that cover their weak spots, so you’ll have to use a water-based ability to put out the shield and weaken the tougher enemies. Pathways may also be blocked by elemental obstacles that could require any number of combos to get past. Combo abilities play a big part in finding all the collectibles Star Allies has to offer, so mastering what abilities can actually combine together can be a very useful tactic.
