Kirby's returning to dreamland

I found the game tricky at times, though. I heard Extra Mode was challenging, though I played only a little of it.

This Extra Mode had better not be like Donkey Kong Country Returns's Mirror Mode.
 
Extra Mode is just like regular mode, but with your HP halved and bosses having different attack patterns so far for me

At least you can die in this game.
 
Why do people think the ability to die adds to the difficulty to the game?

Because removing the ability to die detracts from the difficulty of the game.
 
Actually, I found Kirby's Epic Yarn tricky to 100% with, which is the real challenge.
 
Not much, actually. Just unlocking an item challenge room (I believe) and making Magolor talk about how he got his ship. And yes, there are spheres in Extra.
 
But I understand if there's no Wheel ability for multiplayer. I mean, the Snow Ball super ability is bad enough when your friend gets it (I have to get run over in order for her to execute it properly). Wheel, I can just leave my friends all behind.

This one, too, since it's about Kirby and it also addresses the death/difficulty thing again:
