Description
Join Kirby in an unforgettable journey through a mysterious world in a 3D platforming adventure
Float off on an all-new adventure as the powerful puffball, Kirby. Explore in 3D stages as you discover a mysterious world with abandoned structures from a past civilization—like a shopping mall?! Copy enemies’ abilities like the new Drill and Ranger and use them to attack, explore your surroundings, and save the kidnapped Waddle Dees from the ferocious Beast Pack alongside the mysterious Elfilin. Hope you’re hungry for an unforgettable adventure!
Get a mouthful of real-world objects for all-new, powerful transformations
Feeling hungry? Kirby can inhale real-world objects and transform using Mouthful Mode! Why get one drink from a vending machine when you can swallow the whole thing? Then, use your boxy body to shoot out cans at baddies. Consume a car to gain some wheels and slam through walls. Sit back and take it all in…literally.
Join up with a pointy partner, Bandana Waddle Dee, in co-op play
Pass a Joy-Con controller to a buddy to play as the spear-wielding Bandana Waddle Dee and help each other explore and battle through this colorful world. While Kirby can float and inhale enemies, Bandana Waddle Dee can spin and stab with his sturdy spear. Find friendship in this forgotten world and save the Waddle Dees!
Float over obstacles and fight through enemies on your way to each stage’s goal as you slash, poke, freeze, and hammer using Kirby’s copy abilities. The tough puff is truly put to the test in dynamic boss battles that will keep you dancing about the arena. Choose from two difficulty modes for either a light, breezy adventure or a more challenging experience.
Each themed stage you travel through will hide several friendly Waddle Dees in peril! Save them to grow the home base of your adventure, the once-deserted Waddle Dee Town. The Waddle Dees you rescue will unlock shops, leaderboards*, and the ability to evolve copy abilities to make them stronger. You’ll also be able to enjoy some of the townsfolk’s favorite games. Use compatible amiibo accessories** or Present Codes at Waddle Dee-liveries for useful in-game items. Track down cute collectibles to give Kirby’s house some extra charm either at the Gotcha Machine Alley or during your adventure.

I grew up being a huge Kirby fan, mostly of Air Ride and Amazing Mirror. Finally got a switch and had to get this game. Totally different from the old kirby games, but not in a bad way at all. I’ve really enjoyed this game so far. It’s light and fun and definitely gave me what I was hoping for and more.

A great game to play for long periods of time. Also, fun to collect collectibles from levels or prize machines in game. The bosses are really fun and the music is really really catchy. There are lots of levels to play.

Everything you love about Kirby, but the new gameplay features make it just that much better. Not very long, but not too short either, perfect value for gameplay length and one I'll probably replay multiple times.
Perfect for the Whole Family

I highly suggest Kirby and the Forgotten Land as one of the first games for anyone who gets a switch. It has different game modes allowing you to make the game easier or harder. This allows younger kids & novice gamers to enjoy the game better.

This is one of my family’s all-time favorite Switch games. Not only do our 7, 9, & 14 year-olds all enjoy it, but my husband and I do too! The 3D effect is awesome, the visuals are great, the challenges are fun, and Kirby is so darn cute!

I bought this for my kids, both under 10. They both love it. It’s a very fun, not overly difficult game that anyone can enjoy. And if I could play for more than a minute at a time, I bet I’d love it too

A good game is when you’re unable to drop it, and Kirby the Forgotten Land is definitely one of them. Kirby the Forgotten Land is based on a powerful puffball, exploring a mysterious unexplored world from structures of a past civilization. While exploring, you can copy enemies abilities or play with a friend in co-op play. The Enjoyment is immeasurable The gameplay - It’s relaxing, you don’t really need to worry about the enemies around you. It's more of discovering the secrets around the world, which is rare in most games in the industry. The enjoyment - as you play the game, you save fictional creatures called waddle dees, and meet a new companion. Mini games such as baking, and playing with friends make this world come to life. The graphics are cartoonish, and easy appealing for the eye. The game is absolutely worth it, especially if you're wishing to change up your play style. This game is appealable for all audiences, as its new formula presents a more lax playing style; rather than the more popularized heavy duty games. No needing to repeat the same level again or again, unless you wish to explore a bit more… As even then Kirby offers extra quests to fulfill the consumers' need for more. The unique Style New Formula - It strays off the normal classic game produced by Nintendo with a different art style than others. It is also not a demanding game, as the average consumer could be able to beat it with little to no trial and error. However, there are difficult side quests for those who wish for the challenge. Easy to follow - The gameplay is easy to follow- if you were to drop the game and pursue something else (which is highly unlikely, due to the addictive nature of the game) you could easily catch up to what you were doing before. This intriguing game pleasantly has its own unique style, which is beguile yet captivating. You’ll get trapped in exploring the game for all its little easter eggs, making fascinating enemies to defeat to save the waddle dees. The twist is that it is open world, and you are not binded to a specific path throughout a level. Go wherever, and still have something in store for you. Fear not, as if you drop the game and manage to forget what it entailed, you can easily pick it up and learn in the first 2 minutes. You may be thinking, “The price isn’t worth it” But, if you’ve ever bought another Nintendo game, you’ll be proven wrong. If you’re in an area near a gamestop, or go on their website, they give full refunds if you recently bought a game. And, if you prove to them that you’ve bought another game, and are a recurring consumer, you may get up to 25% off! Or, you could trade another game that you disliked for Kirby, the forgotten land! Comparing Kirby, the forgotten land to other expensive titles (60 dollars), the deal isn’t too bad for a game who won't let you drop it. In conclusion, if you want to grab a game and relax, consider snatching Kirby, The Forgotten land for its immeasurable enjoyment and its unique style.

He is so good at it (played at target in store and fell in love with it and wanted it for Christmas 2022!) and it’s definitely unique with Kirby being able to become a car! It’s also fun to do as a family and watch each other play. Mom of 2 boys, 29, Birmingham, Alabama
