anyone played this before? I quite enjoy it but I don't find it to be the most strategic of puzzlers. Chains can be done purely by accident.

It's cool, love the little scenes. I think there's a way to beat every section on just one move but not too sure.

Kachou on!

It's a fun puzzler.

Expecting this thread to die due to the lack of people in Europe, though.

Not really interested myself. I'd probably buy Block Ball before this, and I'm waiting for several other VC titles atm - So very likely a no-buy for me.

I make Pixel Art on occasion.

I thought there were plenty of Europeans here.

Well if you look at any thread for an EU game that isn't in NA yet, there aren't a lot of posts. NA release comes: BOOM! Tons of posts. Proving that NA has most of the people on this site.

What about us NZ and AU eShopers? gotta count us too. I'm not really a fan of puzzlers, I bought Catrap earlier this year, but I got real stuck with that game, so I don't expect to buy any more puzzle games. Seems nintendo really milked kirby when they were making games for the gameboy, I would have prefurred more platformer kirbys instead, but oh well.

While that may well be true, just because not lots of people from EU post in the forums for a VC game doesnt mean theres more people from NA on the site. Maybe the majority of people from the EU dont use the forums? Maybe they dont like to buy digital downloads as much?

D/l'd yesterday after work and tried it out. I'd not played this one before, but it reminded me most of Baku Baku Animal on the Game Gear.

It's good fun but the targets are set so low in the 'clear round' mode, they are very very easy to win. Within two hours i'd finished nearly all of the 64 (assuming there are 16 puzzles in the super hard category) rounds. Like others have said it's very easy to get combos going, often by luck, employing little strategy.
I enjoyed the challenge mode more, because you're chasing your own high scores so the challenge will last longer.

EDIT: Slight spoiler coming up...
There's more levels after completing round 16 of the Super Hard levels in 'clear round' mode, which is a good thing as the game gets more enjoyable as the game gets more challening.

Star Stacker and Dream Land 2 should both actually be hitting NA really soon.

I dont think I would buy this game. Kirby games I own so fare has only confused me or leaved me with a bad feeling. Kirby blockball was just a alley way kirby style! Kirby 3d classics was ok, to be a kirby game.

I am from Norway. Pleas have in mind my english might not be the best. but I am trying ;)

I own Star Stacker too. It's pretty fun but it's not my favorite puzzler out of others I've played.

It's great, like all the Kirby puzzlers on the Game Boy.

I'm already in the last difficulty, but it's a lot of fun.

And just like always, it happened again. Glad that it picked back up though.

Got this and really enjoy it! Fun and simple.

It comes with a tutorial. And in the early stages, it tells you where to make combos to clear them.

Game is better than Block Ball. Pinball is the other favorite of mine.
