"From the very first seconds"
Stacking coloured blobs to set off devastating chains, all dressed in Kirby's gentle world: this competitive puzzle marries accessibility and snappy tension. Feeling a cascade run wild stays a gleeful thrill, especially against a teasing opponent. Colourful, charming and fiercely addictive, ideal for getting into the genre or losing yourself in it.
Complete: box, manual and disc/cart very clean. Lightly handled.

Is Kirby's Ghost Trap still worth playing in 2026?
The European name for the competitive puzzle game derived from Puyo Puyo, dressed in Kirby colours. You gather matching blobs to trigger long chains that swamp your opponent. Compile's system remains a peak of versus puzzling, quick, readable and deep, made very welcoming by Nintendo's cheerful imagery. The competitive thrill has not aged a bit. A puzzler for one or two players still as addictive today.
