Kirby's
Avalanche (Kirby's Ghost Trap in the UK) is a Puyo Puyo
clone puzzler for the SNES. The story goes that the
Avalanche competition is a great event in Dreamland. The
cup is held near the Dream Fountain, in which the
Dreamlanders journey to win it. On the journey, if one of
the Dreamlanders run into another, they must play the game
of Avalanche.
Whoever
looses, stays behind while the winner moves ahead. This
will continue until they reach the cup... and the last
opponent waiting for them. Many of the bosses and enemies
Kirby is familar with in his previous games, will be here
to challenge him. A challenging game and addicting once
you get the hang of it, is one of Kirby's lesser known
games. The object of playing, is to stack the same-colored
ghosts together, causing a boulder to crash down on the
opponents side. You can practice, play the competition or
have a two player battle.
While the
characters in the game, Lololo and Lalala, King Dedede,
Kabu, Kracko and Metaknight, just to name a few, are there
to liven up the game. But it's just not the same as
Kirby's other games, although very fun. Once you play it,
you'll probably be playing it sporadically for years
