RGN#12: Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards.

To many this post's title may seem confusing, I post one thing saying that I'm reviewing games and suddenly we are at 12 random gaming notes (RGN)? Well yes, and no. The first ten RGNs were on my facebook page as notes and included other information other than reviews such as how to add channels to your wii and other semi-relevant information. The eleventh was my last post and that accounts for all eleven previous notes.

This video will pretty much sum up the game:

When you have finished watching feel free to continue,




As you can see from the video it's a classic Kirby game with some character team ups and mixed powers. This however, is surprisingly a more difficult game than one might expect. This solely comes from the fact that there are a total of 100 crystals to collect and in order to find most of them you must take advantage of the multi ability use in this game. The only real downside to this game is that the game only has five worlds with five levels the fifth always being a boss level. This said every level must be revisited at least once to get everything. On a scale of 1 to awesome (10) this game ranks in at a good 7 or 8 . I urge any Kirby fans or gamers looking for a time waster to pick this game up. For $10 on the virtual console a good Kirby game from the N64 could be yours on the wii.
