A Pair of Animation Sensations: "Kirby's Epic Yarn" and "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2"

By Luke Hamilton

Kirby's Epic Yarn

'Kirby's Epic Yarn'

I sold myself on Kirby's Epic Yarn (released in October for Wii) almost immediately based just on the presentation. With almost every game I play trying to create realistic settings or characters, the pink puff ball's adventure in yarn form gave me a childlike sense of awe at first sight. What followed is a game with minimal challenge, but it's enjoyable nonetheless. It is undoubtedly a kiddie game, but you might find it surprising how delightful it can really be.
