Brilliant focus on oddball investigation is a fresh concept
Tons of weird and whacky creatures to study
Healthy amount of post-game
Lots of player-driven exploration and discovery options

Intelligent, satisfying gameplay, rich in small and big satisfactions.
Many creatures to discover, analyze, study and delve into.
An authentic and playful contribution outside of traditional paradigms.
The fusion between visual and sound art is remarkably elegant.
Some flaws in the refresh rate and in the navigation interface between pages.

The return of Yoshi and his adorable universe
A visually pleasing style
A gameplay often clever
One idea per level
A very rich exploration
An appreciation of reflection and curiosity
Very accessible with a lifespan for all tastes
A solid soundtrack
A risk for the license with the platform taking a backseat.
Some (rare) ideas are not necessarily well exploited with imprecise controls.
A feeling of fumbling randomly at times to eventually complete a level 100%
No two-player mode

It is a beauty that enters through the eyes.
Each creature has an associated mechanic, which makes the levels almost always fresh.
He knows how to take advantage of his original premise and thanks to that, it is very replayable.
The argument is nothing extraordinary.
Its low difficulty in most phases can be a disadvantage for some players.

Carefully and charmingly artistic direction.
Gameplay that constantly renews itself from one level to the next
Varied bestiary and very well thought out creature system
Good lifespan
Big surprise after the credits
Perfect balance between child and adult players
Some levels have messy and imprecise gameplay.
No two-player mode
Soundtrack too repetitive, enemies' music becomes annoying over time.

The wide variety of creatures to discover
The visual style is overwhelming.
The constant sensation of discovering something new at every moment.
The possibility of giving a name to creatures
Some puzzles are truly original
Sometimes, it seems too simple.
The times when you discover something unintentionally.
This is brief and could give more of itself.

Original gameplay and surprisingly rewarding
Delicious artistic direction
Perfect for families and young players, but with enough secrets and post-game content to engage even perfectionists.
One who is looking for a classic and demanding platform may find it too easy.
Some secondary objectives can be too cryptic, even when using hints.

The superb artistic direction, like a living illustrated book. The original concept based on exploration and experimentation. Accessible and perfect for playing with family. Lots of little secrets and level replayability. A true unique identity in the series. The cartridge is full!
The difficulty is very low. Little challenge for experienced players. Some puzzles lack clarity. A lot of text for a very young audience.

Nonexistent difficulty. Some brilliant ideas that are underused. The structure of the levels is isolated and could have been expanded. Revisiting the levels may lack interest. Little challenge for fans of demanding platform games.

Perfect for relaxing and comfortably tinkering.
Works perfectly on the Switch 2 from a technical standpoint.
The progression of the game repeats in a noticeable way (new chapter, same loop)
Almost no real challenge or additional development.
Narratively very thin
