Unlike in Kirby Super Star, Kirbys have free reign to wander wherever they like, as far away from each-other as they want to, and can regroup by using their Cell Phones to call each-other. In this title, Kirby is split into 4 copies of himself, which all can be controlled autonomously by different players. Kirby & The Amazing Mirror is built around the concept of simultaneous four-player exploration and cooperation. While Gooey is out, Kirby has one less bar of health than he would otherwise. Gooey, like Kirby, is able to fly, and copy abilities, though he does the latter by wrapping his tongue around enemies, rather than Inhaling them. Overall, the mode plays the same in both games, but the SNES version allows for more choices, such as choosing how many rounds will be played (1, 3 or 5), the difficulty that suits each player best, and which character the players wants to play as ( Gryll can only be chosen if the player has beaten them in Story mode, thus making it impossible for a guest player to choose them).Īt any point during gameplay, Kirby can call upon a partner named Gooey, who is controllable by a second player. While the Game Boy version allows this by connecting 2 Game Boys together with a cable, the SNES version requires 2 controllers.

It cannot, however, cause the screen to scroll, and will be Space Jumped back to Kirby whenever it gets left behind, leaving de-facto focus on the first player still.Īdditionally, the two Sub-Games, Samurai Kirby and Megaton Punch can be played with a second player. It can engage in a Face-to-Face with Kirby to restore health, as well as picking up Food on its own. The Helper has access to the full array of moves specific to its ability, and can also use an Infinity Jump to keep up with Kirby. The Helper is controlled by the CPU by default, but if 2 Player mode is selected after the title screen, a second player can join in and control this Helper whenever it appears. This game introduced the Helper system, which allows Kirby to transform his currently equipped Copy Ability into a creature who would grant that ability when swallowed, who will then help Kirby fight. A Helper Sir Kibble controlled by a second player summons himself in Kirby Super Star.
