Kirby Air Riders is a cute, chaotic racing game


Kirby Air Riders can take some getting used to, but its chaotic fun is addictive.

While you race through traditional tracks, Air Riders – much like the original – also opens up free-for-all action stages and mini-games that test your skills in drifting, gliding, and the classic ability of sucking up to gain new powers. In City Trial, players and CPU characters enter a mad dash to collect power-ups and upgrade their vehicles in a large open area, which culminates in themed mini-games to decide the final winner. It took me some time to really get into the groove of Kirby Air Riders and its pretty ruthless approach to action-racing – and this was after spending 20 minutes running the generous tutorials that explained the systems at work.
