****************************************************************************

Opening Snide Remarks: Kirby's Star Stacker looks a lot like Tetris Attack.
I hope this Kirby game is as good as the others.  

****************************************************************************

Gameplay Descripion: KSS plays like a slight variation of Tetris Attack.  The
point of the game is to eliminate stars by sandwiching them between two of 
th same animals. 
Liked: Addictive gameplay.
Hated: Somewhat repetitive gameplay.

****************************************************************************

Graphics Description: KSS has the best graphics of any Game Boy puzzle game.
There are some beautiful cinema screens, as well.  
Liked: Beautiful graphics.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Sound/Music Description: KSS has some pretty good tunes and some decent 
sound fx, as well.  
Liked: The music.
Hated: Nothing.

****************************************************************************

Play Control/Game Design: KSS contains the standard puzzle game controls, but
they are well-done.  The game has several modes of play to try to keep the
game fresh.  
Liked: Five difficulty settings and tons of levels.  
Hated: The different modes are very similar.

****************************************************************************

Improve: More diverse gameplay. 

RIYL: Tetris Attack, any other Kirby game.

****************************************************************************

Final Words: If you simply must have every puzzle game around, then by all 
means looks for KSS.  But if you really only need a few puzzle games for your
Game Boy, then look elsewhere.
