It’s not all over if you run off the course, you can flutter back up and get back racing. Courses have fairly linear paths, but there is a “best path” with more goodies if you’re willing to take the risk. 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.
