The core conceit a Kirby: Mass Attack be dreamed up by a complete lunatic. that be the only thing I can say about the game with absolute certainty. What sane human being would choose t' eschew the time-tested formula a floaty-platforming 'n adorable mimicry that serves as the keystone for the franchise? Who, in their right mind, would swap that formula out for a bizarre, chimeric blend a the platforming, real-time strategy 'n mini-game collection genres?

that be not a condemnation a Kirby: Mass Attack, a course -- that sort a outside-the-sanity-box thinking also led t' the creation a the magnificent Kirby: Canvas Curse. This latest aberration a the powderpuff series doesn't quite reach the heights established by that predecessor; but during those moments where it be preternatural ideas work in tandem, it comes awfully darn close.
