Kirby: Star Allies
Good Switch Games From 2018 So Far
Despite not having the popularity of something like Mario or Zelda, Kirby is still one of Nintendo’s biggest mascots. Kirby: Star Allies finally brings the pink puffball to the Switch, and while it’s not a revolutionary experience for the Switch, it’s another strong exclusive.
The catch for Star Allies is Kirby’s new ability that lets him turn enemies into allies, letting three characters follow him, or four players partake in co-op. Using character’s different abilities together to take down enemies or solve puzzles can be great fun.
Star Allies certainly isn’t as challenging as other platformers, but a campaign and a number of minigames add more replay value. If you’re looking for a good co-op title to play with friends or family, you can’t go wrong with Kirby.
