Is it still worth playing?

HAL Laboratory's 2016 platformer for the Nintendo 3DS, the eleventh mainline Kirby, released in April 2016 in Japan and June worldwide. Kirby defends Planet Popstar from an alien corporation, the Haltmann Works Company, that wants to mechanize the planet to plunder its resources. He moves between multiple planes in stages, inhales enemies to spit them out or swallow them to absorb their powers, and gains abilities and items by scanning Amiibo figures. New is the Robobot Armor, a mech suit that Kirby pilots to destroy obstacles, lift heavy objects and defeat large enemies, and which gains variations by scanning enemies. Code Cubes needed to progress are hidden in each level. A mech suit that copies enemies' abilities still gives every stage a second way to play.
