During the race, you can earn speed boosts, high jumps, and other mobility powers. Here, that’s done not by inhaling enemies, but by collecting special types of food.
This being a Kirby game, there are also opportunities to absorb different powers. The race course itself is a mountain of food, and making your way up it means bouncing on fried eggs, dodging ice cream cones, and skating on whipped cream. One Kirby twist here is that everything is just adorable. After all that, the biggest Kirby - the one who ate the most strawberries - wins. Knocking someone off the stage lets you add their strawberries to your haul. The more strawberries you’ve collected, the more you can push your friends around. Finally, you compete in a Kirby-style battle royale.
In the second part, you collect strawberries on a variety of stages while trying to keep your opponents from getting their fill. Chilli peppers, for example, allow you to trigger a burning pepper attack that can be used to knock rivals off course or bash through obstacles.Players will complete challenges and battle each other as they make their way to the top of the course. You also sometimes come across different types of food whose properties you can adopt in order to unleash attacks on your rivals.
If you fall off a stage, you have a limited amount of time to hover him back onto it, via manic button-bashing, although while you’re doing that, your rivals will be making good progress towards the finishing line. As you run over the cholesterol-packed treats and fruit that stud each stage, your Kirby grows in size and as he does so, his speed increases. You have to race to the end of each stage, propelling Kirby like a ball, in the style of Marble Madness or Super Monkey Ball. It features a number of courses constructed from the most sugary of desserts, studded with fruit, but mainly composed of whipped cream, biscuits, and cake icing. The universe in which the game takes place is beautifully rendered, in typical Nintendo fashion, but merely witnessing it could lead to a hardening of the arteries.
