I see now why critics don’t rate these Air Ride games all too high: Kirby Air Riders demands a lot more from the player. You aren’t moving at a slow pace, and many of the central mechanics are far more challenging than simply collecting (well-placed) coins or hitting an item box. Lot of moving parts… definitely not nearly as casual friendly an experience as most Nintendo games.
You can tell that Sakurai put his whole heart into this game. Really fun so far!
