The game is incredibly easy with extra lives dished out at a rate that becomes laughable (by time I had finished I had over 100 lives). Levels are often very short & very easy with there being little incentive to try & get all the collectibles available in each. There is an expansive amount of levels yet it’s not a game that will excite for long. It happened far too often to me for it just to be a small error on my part. However Yoshi can hover for a short amount of time after a jump but often in your desperation to reach a safe platform your thumb will slide downwards on the stick turning your attempt into a butt slam. When in the air, pushing down will see Yoshi slam towards the ground, a useful move when dealing with enemies. It’s a minor part of the game but works perfectly fine.įor the most part the controls work well with the only problem being the butt slam. At certain times Yoshi can even swallow giant eggs that can bulldoze their way through areas of the game (these moments are few but look so painful for Yoshi).Īt other times Yoshi can transform into a vehicle (often in bonus areas) where the 3DS gyroscope controls come into play, motion control where tilting the 3DS moves the vehicle. To help, Yoshi can use eggs as weapons, launching them at enemies or obstacles. There is a lot of variety in the levels & they feature a hand-drawn art style which is so pleasing to the eye.Īlong the way the Yoshi clan will come across many obstacles in their path, from tricky platforming sections to the many enemies that stand in the way. The aim is to reach the goal at end of the stage while protecting the baby. The story is simple & matches the gameplay where you control a Yoshi carrying baby Mario on their back. The Yoshi clan agree to work together to reunite Mario & Luigi & get them back to their parents.
He captures the stork & baby Luigi while baby Mario falls & lands among the Yoshi clan on their island, Egg Island.
Kamek is the primary protagonist in the Yoshi series of games & acts as Baby Bowers caretaker. Yoshi’s New Island is a sequel to the 1995 game Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island & the opening cut-scene shows a stork on route to delivering baby Mario & Luigi to their parents when it is ambushed mid-flight by Kamek. Well here we go again this time on the Nintendo 3DS. Although the music was incredibly irritating. Done in the style of a pop-up story book with worlds crafted from materials such as fabric & wood, it was a fun game aimed squarely at a younger audience. My first experience playing as Yoshi was with the 1998 Nintendo 64 release, Yoshi’s Story.
