    Surprisingly Good

    I had low expectations for this game, and I have to say: I was very pleasantly surprised. First off, this is NOT a platformer like older Yoshi games. If you go into this game expecting that, you’ll dislike it. Second, this game can be short if all you do is go from point A to point B; this game is all about experimentation and exploration. That said, the experimentation and exploration are incredibly fun, and this game is packed full of charm. There were so many times I verbally stated, “Oh, that is SO neat!” Visuals are great, audio cues are good, music is fine, but the overall experience was such a delight.

    Nice and enjoyable game

    The game is charming, colorful, and full of creative levels. The puzzles are fun and engaging without being too difficult, making it perfect for younger players while still being enjoyable for the whole family. The beautiful storybook-style world is a joy to explore, and the attention to detail makes every level feel unique. Overall, this is a wonderful game with plenty of adventure, creativity, and family-friendly fun.

    Beautiful Game.

    Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is a charming and relaxing adventure that focuses more on exploration and discovery than on difficult platforming. Instead of fighting enemies, you'll spend most of your time interacting with strange creatures, solving light puzzles, and uncovering secrets inside a magical storybook world. The hand-crafted art style is beautiful, and the game constantly rewards curiosity.

    Like a cozy, nostalgic blanket!

    In a world where our senses are being assaulted in every direction by "bigger, better, and more," Yoshi and the Mysterious Book dares players to take a moment and slow down. With no time limits, health meter, life counter, or even a game over screen; this game invites you to kick back wherever you are and forget the stress of the real world while you explore a vivid world full of character. The gameplay loop is reminiscent of the N64 classic Yoshi's Island in the sense that players are highly encouraged to take their time exploring every corner of the map! Each creature Yoshi investigates will interact with Yoshi, the world, and other creatures in often surprising ways, pushing you to see what else there is to discover before moving on. As you learn more about these creatures, you'll even see them popping up in future stages, allowing you to combine prior knowledge with new ideas, leading to discoveries you might not have made if you weren't paying close attention. With all of the love and attention packed into each stage, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book successfully brings the classic joys of Yoshi into full HD glory with new and unexpected ways to play! The best part? You play your way! Will you investigate all of the creatures, or only enough to progress? Which color Yoshi will you play as? How many creature notes can you uncover? I would recommend this game to anyone looking for a fun and engaging way to fill their time.
