We had this game previously but lost it in the move. It was one that we were determined to replace because it is enjoyed by all members of the family. It is a fun game that is different than the rest of the Kirby games. It is great fun for all.

Kids love it... I think it's pretty cute, too.

We are looking for good 4-player games for our 4 SPs for when we go on a long roadtrip. We haven't gotten to try this one out multiplayer yet but will be soon. Very fun little game.

I bought this based on reading amazon.com review, and at first, my son played for 10 minutes and never wanted to play the game. Then our neighbor Keion played the game and my god my son loves it, and bought of them are crazy about it, one gameboy, one kirby - they have to share the fun!

From 3yr - 11 yr all my kids love it

4 boys - 3, 4, 7 & 11. Bottom line... BEST GBA GAME EVER PURCHASED...

Easy enough for 3 and 4 yr old to play and be successfull at unlocking things and beating levels, challenging and versatile enough for 11 yr old to play, even after beating the game, because it's still fun and other things to get or do, or unlock.

The 3yr old and 4 yr old fight over who gets to play it all the time. My 7 yr old got a DS with Canvas Curse and will go get his brother's Amazing Mirror Game to play - if he can get it away from them. My 11 year old is into XBOX and fighting games - he went and spent his own allowance money to buy himself his own copy of this game. Now they link up and take turns playing and they will wait their turn to play. We have a Game Cube and XBOX and they each have their own handheld and lots of other games, but they wait and watch over the other brothers shoulders and cheer them on until it is their turn.

This is a SURE hit!

We moved overseas in January and thought between all the travelling involved and the fact the kids wouldn't know anyone at first that Game Boys would help pass the time.

I bought this game for my 4 and 6 year old girls solely based on the Amazon reviews and I'm SO glad I did. We bought about 7 other games too and this is by far their FAVORITE!!! When we told an 8 yr old boy here that we had a Kirby game he said he LOVES Kirby and couldn't wait to play it.

You can't go wrong with this choice. Enjoy!

Kirby Forever!

Kirby the Amazing Mirror is a game that can be played over and over. It never loses its appeal, and the auto save makes it a great game to play in short, 10-minute stretches. Here are some of the major features that I think add the bounce to this game -

-Replay Value
I have never played another game with this much replay value. Kirby is not the sort of game that you play for the plot, so the experience of a fresh, new game is still there when you start up that new file.

-Unlockables
Kirby is heavily based on a reward system of unlockables. There are items hidden in treasure chests all over the mirror world, and once the treasure chests have been opened, the items are stored in a place called the collection room. These items include items that make the gameplay easier, such as extra slots for Kirby's health points (once you collect all of these, Kirby can be damaged by the enemy 10 times before losing a life), as well as items that just amuse the player, like spray paints to color your Kirby different shades and a sound test that lets you play all of the music and sounds in the game when you collect music sheets (yet another unlockable.) There is also an unlockable mini-game, an unlockable power room (more on this later)... even the Final Boss level is unlockable, from gathering all of the pieces of the amazing mirror. These items make it very rewarding to play the game.

-Puzzle AND action
There is more to Kirby than simply running through levels and defeating enemies. There is a puzzle aspect of the game, where Kirby has to collect certain powers from swallowing enemies to get past certain parts of the game. These include the Burning power to burn through metal blocks, and the Mini power to crawl through tight passageways. These tasks become much easier when you unlock the special Power Room, which gives you free access to all of the powers except a select few, and they are extremely simplified when, after defeating the Final Boss, you gain a special power called Master, which can apparently solve all puzzles.

-Everyone can play it
The game of Kirby is a game that is simple enough so that it can be played by young children, yet it is still satisfying to older players. There are no bloody or otherwise graphic scenes that are to be avoided. In addition, the squishiness and general cuteness of a Kirby appeals to plenty of people, me included. :D

Overall, the Kirby game is a great title, and I highly recommend it. Kirby Forever!

exactly what I expected

We bought this game for my son after he meet another child with it at summer camp. He played non-stop for 2 weeks straight.

Kirby is the best!

Kirby is really cool. He is pink, squishy, cute, and is so popular he even has his own tv show.
About the game: It is so fun and, while it did take me a while to beat the game, that is one of the good things about it. It's not like, once you beat the big boss, it's all over. You have to explore every nook, cranny, and corner to find all the items and get 100%.
Kirby having 3 new buddies that look a lot like him is exciting and fun, and while they don't always do everything you want them to, they are VERY helpful if you're fighting a tough boss. Plus, the ability to call your friends or even a flying star taxi with kirby's new CELL PHONE is new, fun, and helpful if you're in a jam.
Another thing I want to mention is the mini-games. They are really fun, and I like being able to choose the difficulty so I'm not way in over my head.
Overall, this is one of my favorite games and I highly recommend it to anyone with a thirst for adventure, fun, and cute pink characters!

buy this game
