Yoshi's Crafted World, Nintendo Switch

Jump into a new Yoshi adventure in a world made of everyday objects—like boxes and paper cups! This isn’t your typical game world. It’s a vibrant, living diorama where you, as Yoshi, play an active role. You’ll leap to great heights, gulp down enemies, and embark on a treasure hunt to find all the different collectibles scattered throughout the game. But there’s a twist! The stages can be played in reverse, providing fresh perspectives to explore and new ways to locate some of the more craftily hidden items. It’s a whole new way to experience the world of Yoshi, offering endless replayability and exploration.

The adventure begins when Kamek and Baby Bowser set out to steal a gem-set stone. This legendary artifact is said to fulfill the deepest desires of whoever possesses it. However, when the stone’s gems are scattered far and wide, it’s up to Yoshi and his companions to retrieve them.

This isn’t a journey you have to undertake alone. It’s a cooperative endeavor that can also be quite challenging. Share a Joy-Con controller with a friend, and you can team up as Yoshi comrades, working together to overcome obstacles and progress through the game.

For those seeking a more relaxed gameplay experience, the game features a Mellow mode, which grants Yoshi wings. This mode can be particularly useful for younger players or those new to the game, making the world of Yoshi accessible to all.

Locating all the flowers, coins, and Poochy Pups is no easy task! It requires keen observation and a spirit of adventure. But fear not, for Yoshi is not without protection. The game offers a variety of handicraft costumes that can be unlocked, providing Yoshi with an extra layer of defense.
