Kirby’s Return to Dream Land™ Great Game For All Ages

March 14, 2023 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

In Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe Kirby is back for a 1-4 player* platforming adventure across Planet Popstar. I have been playing this great game over the past week and have loved it every step of the way.


In the game, float and fight along with friends on the same system as you control Kirby. Each other player can control a different Kirby or one of Kirby’s iconic friends like King Dedede, Meta Knight, and Bandana Waddle Dee.

Join forces to save the day

Take on the adventure alone as Kirby or invite other players to join the game as a different Kirby, King Dedede, Meta Knight, or Bandana Waddle Dee. You and up to 3 friends can work together to find missing ship pieces in 4-player co-op on the same system.

Kirby’s Return to Dream Land™ Deluxe

Team up for powerful Team Attacks

Combine powers with other players by riding piggyback! Just press and release the L or R buttons at the same time for a super-strong Team Attack. Effects will vary based on the number of players and who is on the bottom of the stack.

Play subgames for in-game rewards

Travel from Planet Popstar to the Merry Magoland amusement park! Play a colorful collection of subgames, collect stamps for your stamp rally, and earn in-game prizes. Share the fun with up to 3 friends on the same system.

Hop online* to see global fun facts or compete against player records from all over the world in Samurai Kirby 100.

Mask up at the Souvenir Shop

Talk to Souvenir Shop Waddle Dee to dress up each playable character with fun masks inspired by the Kirby series.

Kirby’s Return to Dream Land™ Deluxe

A brand-new story starring Magolor

Alone in a strange dimension and without his powers, Magolor must platform through challenging stages and defeat enemies. You and up to 3 friends can take control of different-colored Magolors for 4-player interdimensional action. Complete the main story to unlock this new adventure!

Power up abilities with Magic Points

Use combo attacks to earn Magic Points to enhance Magolor’s abilities. Get special items to unlock new abilities! Each player receives the same benefits as Magolor’s abilities are leveled up. Master Magolor’s moves and overcome tougher challenges along the way!

My take on the Game

While you may think this game is for children, I will tell you that I found the game to be great for all ages. The game had a ton of great subgames as well as amazing graphics and a fun storyline. I tried out the game as a single player but even more so as a team with some friends and both were equally fun, thought the team play made the game even more enjoyable. I did get to the end of the game and one of the things that was great was that there was an additional chapter after you beat the game with new levels. You play as Magolar who is stripped of all his powers and you have to work to get your powers back. This was a great extra and it added an extra 2 hours or so of game time. One of the other things I liked was that in playing the mini games you are able to earn stamps and then cash in the stamps for masks that can be used on the main levels. All-in-all this was a super fun game for the whole family and I give it two thumbs up!

Game Review – Animal Crossing: New Horizons

April 8, 2020 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

About the Game

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons you create your own little slice of paradise as you explore, build, and customize your very own deserted island. A cast of charming animal residents including Tom Nook and Isabelle help grow your budding community. Players make the world their own using a wealth of natural resources to craft everything from tools to creature comforts and decorate however they wish. You can even take a break to enjoy a beach sunset while ocean fishing or hunt down insects at the crack of dawn!

  • Build your community from scratch on a deserted island brimming with possibility; Create your personal getaway and customize your character, home, decorations, and even the landscape itself
  • Collect materials to construct everything from furniture to tools! Then, use what you create to give your island a personal touch
  • Watch as the time of day and seasons match real life—even your hemisphere! Each day holds potential for surprises and discoveries
  • Get to know the island residents, garden, fish, decorate, hunt for fossils, and more!

 

My Take on the Game

I have been a fan since Animal Crossing came out originally so I was extremely interested to see how this new version would hold up to my initial experience. While I have been held-up at home, this game let me create a whole new world (without virus) where I could build a home, make friends and be a productive member of the society. One of the things that I love in this game is that the charm of the first game was not lost in this one, and instead I think it is enhanced even further.

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons you experience island living. You and two randomly chosen animal island-mates start a new life on a deserted island after purchasing a getaway package from the entrepreneurial raccoon named Tom Nook. You’re handed a tent and a simple set of instructions: build out the island any which way you like, and they truly mean build.

In this game, one of the changes that I see is that you are crafting items from materials collected. This reminded me a bit of Minecraft but with a different type of humor. You don’t really know what will appear next, but you have to be ready for anything. Whether it’s a bathroom towel rack falling from a tree that you can harvest wood from or getting a t-shirt for saying something.

Being able to build in this game is intuitive and simple to do. You’ll find yourself in the menus often as you look up what ingredients are needed to make a furniture, but thanks to New Horizons’ accessible interface it is easy to navigate for all.

One of the cool things that you will experience, if you have never played this game, is experiencing that what happens, happens in real time. So for instance, a character might say “this will happen tomorrow.” When this is said you may think that this means in an hour, but no, it is actually tomorrow. This is something that you have to get used to, as many games do not allow you to experience things in this way, but this game is different and fun in this way.

This game will allow you to tally up hours of game play, which is another great thing for any gamer. The time really flies by, and before you know it, you will also wonder where the time went. The game is fun to play and experience. For any Switch owners looking for something to do during these uncertain times this will definitely allow you to get away from it all for a while. I would highly recommend this game for all.

Bring Your Love of Harry Potter to Nintendo Switch with LEGO Harry Potter Collection!

November 4, 2018 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Harry Potter Collection

About the Harry Potter Collection

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, TT Games and The LEGO Group today announced the launch of LEGO Harry Potter™: Collection for Nintendo Switch™ and Xbox One, bringing the top-selling videogames LEGO® Harry Potter™: Years 1-4 and LEGO Harry Potter™: Years 5-7 together in one remastered package.

 

Developed by TT Games and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, LEGO Harry Potter: Collection unites the signature humor of LEGO games and the expansive Wizarding World for a thrilling journey full of spell-casting, potion-making, and puzzle-solving fun. The compilation features content from the eight films with enhanced graphics, environments, lighting and visual effects, along with two downloadable content (DLC) packs.

Harry Potter Collection

“The LEGO Harry Potter: Collection for Nintendo Switch and Xbox One brings the entire LEGO Harry Potter adventure to a new generation of players to enjoy,” said Jonathan Smith, Head of Production and Strategic Director, TT Games. “Gamers can journey back to Hogwarts for a light-hearted, humorous and interactive journey told through all of the Harry Potter films, sure to delight fans and newcomers alike.”

LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 is based on the first four films—Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone™, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets™, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban™ and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire™—allowing fans to experience Harry‘s first four years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in full LEGO form.

http://www.dadofdivas.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/20181103_155704.mp4

LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 transports players through the final four films—Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix™, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince™ and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows™ Part 1 & 2—to experience Harry’s last years at Hogwarts™ and his battle against Lord Voldemort™ in the ultimate fight between good and evil.

Harry Potter Collection

This action-packed adventure also offers two previously released DLC packs, including a Character Pack featuring Godric Gryffindor, Harry (Yule Ball), Helga Hufflepuff, Lockhart (Straightjacket), Luna (Lion Head), Peeves, Hermione (Pink Dress), Ron Weasley (Ghoul), Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin, as well as a Spell Pack featuring Cantis, Densaugeo, Ducklifors, Melofors and Tentaclifors.

 

My Take on the Harry Potter Collection

Are you a true Harry Potter fan? With this new collection of games you can re-live all of the years where you have come to love Harry, his friends and his enemies. You can start in year one or year five and work your way from there. As you move through the game you will learn how to use magic and be able to work with different characters to be able to accomplish different tasks.

In playing this game, I found that like other LEGO games you have to break things, find hidden items and accomplish different tasks to be able to complete the levels at an expert level. The nice thing about the game is that you can play for hours or just a short period of time and still have a ton of fun.

Harry Potter Collection

I loved being able to switch between characters as each is unique and as you come to find their strengths and weaknesses you will have to use them for different reasons.

 

Being someone that has read all of the books and also watched all of the movies, this game followed the tenor of both the books and the film. It does leave out detail, but I expected that.

In the end you get hours of Harry Potter fun all wrapped up in one collection of games.

If you are a Harry Potter fan and you love gaming, this collection is for you!

Time for a Super Mario Party with Mario & His Friends

November 1, 2018 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Super Mario Party

About Super Mario Party

The party comes to Nintendo Switch in this complete refresh of the Mario Party series. The Super Mario Party series is coming to the Nintendo Switch system with super-charged fun for everyone. The original board game style has been kicked up a notch with deeper strategic elements, like specific Dice Blocks for each character. The game also introduces all-new ways to play, including Joy-Con controller enabled minigames, and new modes to enjoy with family and friends. Board game play goes back to the four-player basics as you take turns and race across the board searching for Stars. You can also pair up two Nintendo Switch systems and delight in this dynamic play style, such as in the new Toad’s Rec Room mode. With new modes and new minigames coupled with original board game play, the party starts anywhere, anytime, and with all kinds of players.

Super Mario Party

Features a variety of modes, including: 

  • Mario Party: Enjoy the original Mario Party board game experience with new element like character dice blocks, a party system, and new boards to explore
  • Toad’s Rec Room: A dynamic new play style that pairs up two Nintendo Switch systems for Table top mode
  • Go head-to-head in 80 new minigames with many ways to play: Fast and fun skill-based mini-games that use the Joy-Con controllers in all sorts of different ways

Super Mario Party

My Take on Super Mario Party

This new Super Mario game is different than many of the others that I have played in the past. This game has a ton of options within it to be able to allow you to have hours of fun. Whether it is dice roll playing games or mini-games this game has a little bit of everything.

Super Mario Party

 

On the Nintendo Switch this only uses one of the joysticks, which is not something that I am completely used to. It took me a little bit of time personally to get used to this, but once I did I had a ton of fun playing the different games.

Super Mario Party

Many of the games use a team approach for the games and you can choose who you want to verse. You have four people playing even if you only are playing one player. You can have up to 4 players which can make the game even more fun.

Super Mario Party

I loved all of the mini-games that this had. One of the ones that was a blast that my daughter and I liked play was the trike game. I am forgetting the actual name of the game, but you actually have to move the joystick around in a bit of a circle motion. This motion allows you to pedal down a short course on a tricycle, like the one that you see below!

Super Mario Party

All-in-all though, this game has a little bit of everything for all ages. The game gives you many hours of game play and even after a few hours of playing you still feel like there is much more game to enjoy!

Super Mario Party

My daughter and I loved exploring this game together. Whether you play this by yourself or with others I believe that you will truly love this new Super Mario party game!

Get Ready For Speed With The New Cars 3: Driven to Win

June 16, 2017 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Cars 3: Driven to Win photo disclaimer_zpsaa1cb05b.jpg

Rev up your engines! Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and Disney Consumer Products and Interactive Media today announced that Cars 3: Driven to Win is now available in the Americas for the PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment systems, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Nintendo Switch™ and Wii U™.  Developed by Avalanche Software, Cars 3: Driven to Win is the world-class competitive racing game inspired by the upcoming Disney•Pixar Cars 3 film providing an entirely new interactive experience that is thrilling to play alone or with friends and family. Players can race as Lightning McQueen, Cruz Ramirez, Jackson Storm and other beloved characters while mastering the tricks, skills and combat techniques needed to become the Ultimate Champion.

Cars 3: Driven to Win

Cars 3: Driven to Win picks up after the final big race in the upcoming Cars 3, and offers an all-new high-speed competition that is filled with both familiar and new faces.  Players will be able to take the driver’s seat and set out in action-packed adventures as they join Lightning McQueen and Cruz Ramirez in preparation to take on rival racer Jackson Storm.  With over 20 customizable playable characters to choose from, including popular heroes from the Cars franchise and next generation racers, and more than 20 unique tracks across 13 iconic race environments from the film, Cars 3: Driven to Win allows players to customize their racing adventure and discover a variety of possible experiences through its replayability.

Cars 3: Driven to Win

“With Cars 3: Driven to Win, we created a game that extends the excitement of the film with thrilling competitive racing experiences for players of all ages and levels,” said John Blackburn, Vice President and Studio Head, Avalanche Software. “We know how much fans love the Cars brand and characters, and we are proud to make the game available across all current and previous gaming consoles so that more families can enjoy it together.”

Cars 3: Driven to Win

Cars 3: Driven to Win is a game that empowers players to master their driving skills for the ultimate world-class competitive racing experience. With six thrilling modes for gamers to train and advance their abilities, the gameplay is designed to encourage players to learn and build experience, earning rewards for each of their improvements along the way.  Race Mode puts players onto the tracks to race against Lightning McQueen and the gang and rev up for the ultimate challenge, while Battle Race allows players to collect and use power-ups, putting their cars to the test in races against family and friends to become the Ultimate Champion. To turn up the competition, Takedown Mode allows gamers to collect and use a variety of power-ups to eliminate as many crash karts as possible, and when time runs out, the player with the most points wins. In Best Lap Challenge, players can race against their own best time, as they attempt to set a new track record. For maximum fun and creativity, players can visit the Playground where they can go racing, perform stunts and engage in challenges, or simply drive around for fun at their own pace, and with Stunt Showcase they can race off of ramps to catch air and perform as many tricks as possible before time runs out, earning points for successful tricks and safe landings.  Cars 3: Driven to Win provides an exhilarating, action-packed experience where training and skill give players an edge in a racing experience that anyone can win.

Cars 3: Driven to Win

Players will be able to experience Cars 3: Driven to Win with their friends or on their own to perfect the various racing styles and modes available to them. For maximum fun, the game will include local split-screen cooperative play, allowing players to compete or team up and play at home together, making it easy for friends and family members to join the race – and the fun – at any time.

Cars 3: Driven to Win

My Take on the Game

This game is set to follow up after the Cars 3 movie. You are provided with over 20 characters from the movie, thus the game really is working to capitalize on the franchise and share some of the character that you love too (including animations and sound bites for each character too).

The tracks that are in the game are a ton of fun. I found that 5 of the tracks were returning from the Cars 2 game, but there were an additional 5 new ones that were added that were based on locations from the Cars 3 world.

One of the things that my girls and I loved was that the characters could be customized with different horn noises, light effects, tires and flame effects produced when driving at turbo speed. This customization made the game that much more fun in our opinion/

You can play with up to 4 players which also was a ton of fun as well.

My daughters particularly loved the Battle Race, which is the standard mode of the game where you race opponents to the finish line, utilizing 14 different weapon pick-ups – such as tracking rockets, Gatling guns and bombs. Additionally, you can tow certain items found on the sides of the track, such as explosive barrels. You can choose to hold these behind you as a defensive maneuver or fire it at passing rivals.

You also can have fun by doing things like driving on two wheels or driving backwards.

Race Mode is more of the same without the use of weapon pick-ups, Takedown Mode sees you blowing up non-sentient cars for points, and Best Lap Challenge allows you to test maps to perfect your times. There’s also Master Level Events which are essentially boss fights, as well as the Cup Series, the tournament mode for the game.

You have a lot of options to change the conditions of the race for your next match after every race which makes each time that you play it unique.

One new mode that you should be aware of is the Cars 3: the Thomasville Playground. This reminded me a lot of the Disney Infinity toybox as it is an open play area where you can drive around with complete free will. This mode allows you to practice or mess about on your own or with friends, with the option to compete in battle challenges around the map.

Cars 3: Driven to Win has a lot of depth with a plethora of modes, with the achievement-based Hall of Fame feature unlocking more content as you play.

The game is not simple. It does take some effort to place in the races when you are racing against the computer, so be aware of this. You also have to be a bit careful when it comes to manual drifting as the controls are touchy and you can find yourself crashing if you are not careful!

In the end this is a fun game that any Cars 3 fan should love. There are some great new play additions that you will love and it is challenging too!

Nintendo ARMS Review

June 13, 2017 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Nintendo ARMS photo disclaimer_zpsaa1cb05b.jpg

In ARMS, you can choose between 10 unique fighters from around the world, equip a combination of extendable Arms and then use a mix of quick hand motions and button presses to take the fight to your opponent. Using the motion-control features of your Joy-Con controllers, you can get up off your couch – or wherever you are playing the game on your Nintendo Switch system – and punch and move with your hands to really feel like you’re part of the action.

Nintendo ARMS

The game is a blast to play for people of all ages, whether they are familiar with fighting games or not. But even though ARMS is accessible to everyone, it still possesses enough depth and strategy to appease the most hardcore of fans.

Nintendo ARMS

With dozens of Arms to choose from, you can customize your combat with thousands of different combinations. Want to equip a fire-powered glove? Go ahead! Craving some laser action for long-range attacks? Sounds great! Is a helpful shield your jam? Defend away! Each of the Arms has its own special attributes, so picking the correct combination of Arms is part of the game’s strategy.

Nintendo ARMS

With a variety of single- and multiplayer modes (both local and online*), there’s a lot to do in ARMS.

Find a copy of Arms on Amazon!

Make a Little ‘Me Time’: The Importance of Making Time for Yourself as a Busy Dad

March 14, 2017 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

In a hectic family life, everyone needs to make time for themselves. There is a lot of focus on moms making time for themselves but no-one really thinks about dad’s needing to do this as well. The modern dad is much more involved and with flexible working, dads are playing a more active part in their children’s lives and sharing the childcare role.

Managing a busy schedule dominated by work and the demands of the family dads need to consciously make time for themselves to ensure they have a balanced and happy life.

Get Physical 

Being active and getting some exercise is a great way to get some me time. Whether you push yourself in the gym, enjoy pounding the streets or prefer team sports, spending time exercising not only gives you a mental break but also is good for your health, enabling you to be fitter and more active with your family.

Golf is a game loved by so many men and it’s understandable why when it gets you away from all the hassles of your life and you get to stroll around a great golf course chasing that amazing shot. It combines some of the things that men love the most, competition, and somewhere that the family cannot interrupt or join in.

Team sports are not only great exercise but also social activities too, especially if you get the chance to have a beer or two afterwards. Dig out your old football boots and re-join the lads for some 5 aside fun. If you don’t have enough players or want to find a team check out Gumtree for ads looking for players.

soccer

If you are not that keen on actively taking part or have become more of an avid spectator that is great too as it gives you an ideal outlet with regular fixtures to watch. Enjoy the games on your own or with friends for a bit of competition and banter to distract you from the daily grind.

Disappear into a Different Reality

Gaming is a classic pastime that allows you to immerse yourself in another world and to leave your worries behind you. With your lounge being taken over by the little people you often need to find somewhere else to get your gaming fix. If you are not lucky enough to have a man cave then you might like do some online gaming on your phone. Using your phone will enable you to enjoy gaming at any time when you can spare a few minutes, whether it’s on your commute, lunch break or anywhere.

fantastic

App stores are brimming with all different types of games from racing games like Asphalt 8: Airborne, through to strategic war games like Mobile Strike. If you like to have a bet, there are mobile casinos to try your luck on where you can play classic casino games, slot machines and bingo. You may think bingo, that’s not a very manly pursuit, but bingo is no longer just the hobby for elderly women. Why not give it a go and see if it gets you hooked with new member offers on bingo sites such as “spend 10 play with 50”? You might get lucky!

TV Addict

TV

Even if you can’t get away from the house much these days there are plenty of movies and box sets to devour to enable you to relax and unwind after a busy day and facing the challenges of being a parent. Over the years you have probably missed some great TV series so invest in some box sets and binge watch some TV. If you need some inspiration or want some good reviews, ask friends or colleagues or visit a film and TV review site like Rotten Tomatoes to discover reviews before you purchase them. Top of your list if you missed them could be zombie series The Walking Dead or political drama House of Cards.

Whatever your favorite hobbies are, try to ensure you don’t lose sight of them among your hectic family life. Even if you can’t dedicate as much time as you use to or you’d like, allocate yourself some time each week to enjoy them and agree with your partner when each of you will benefit from your own time. Ensuring that you both get some ‘me time’ to be yourself not a parent will make you not only happier but better parents.
