Mild Cartoon Violence
This is a side-scrolling platformer game in which players assume the role of Kirby, a small spherical character that must help an alien recover its broken spaceship. As players traverse through each level, they use “cartoony” weapons (e.g., swords, spears, fire/ice/electricity attacks) to battle robots, dragons, and animal-like creatures. Damage is indicated by impact sounds, colorful light effects, and enemies that disappear when defeated. In one mini-game, players assume a third-person perspective to fire pellet guns at an oversized tank and passing blimps—the sequence is accompanied by constant projectile fire and realistic explosions.
