Yoshi's Crafted World Critic Reviews

Easy doesn’t mean a lack of fun, and if Yoshi’s Crafted World is anything, it’s fun. Good Feel has very nearly perfected its quirky practice of hyper-stylized visuals fused with quality gameplay. As ever, the pure joy of hurling eggs at encroaching Shy Guys and Piranha Plants remains one of the biggest draws in all of video games. The new, multilayered stages composed from bric a brac are charming to the max. There’s also a bevy of unlockable goodies, including a multitude of cute costumes to dress Yoshi in, and that will keep players busy returning to Crafted World’s numerous stages for a good, long time.

Yoshi's Crafted World not only changes wool by cardboard to offer a charming plaform game: it goes beyond offering a "collect-a-thon" with extremely varied levels, full of surprises and distinct gameplay mechanics. A very enjoyable game with local co-op and a magnificent example that reminds us that in 2D gaming, not all is done yet.

On the whole, Yoshi’s Crafted World is an excellent platformer worth picking up for any Switch owner. It’s a beefy experience, with lots of levels to beat and items to explore. The art style is unique and the levels innovative. While the bosses and music aren’t perfect, they do little to detract from the overall experience. Yoshi’s Crafted World is well worth playing with friends or alone.

Yoshi's Crafted World continues the line that Nintendo has been treading when it comes to 2D platformers of the Yoshi series: visually stunning and with plenty of interactivity, the game also features a healthy lifespan and plenty of objects to collect. Yet another classic in this successful new incarnation of Nintendo's favourite dinosaur.

Yoshi’s Crafted World is a real joy to play. While it’s monotonous during the flip side levels, its masterful platform design makes up for it in droves.

Not only have they created a Yoshi game that convincingly pulls the series out from under the ever-widening shadow of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island, but they have also managed to prop it securely on its own aspirational eye-candy pedestal as a result. This Nintendo Switch exclusive is a stunning visual brainstorm of imagination, color, and creativity. With so much to see and do long after the credits roll, you’d be hard pressed to find anything quite as ingeniously charming or damn right adorable.

Yoshi's Crafted World is a game that everyone should play. Fun, engaging, built in a way that manages to gather past and present with a sweet, warm touch.

Yoshi's Crafted World is a window into the mind of a child. Colourful and cheerful, the newest video game by Good-Feel is able to put the player in a good mood.

One of the best Yoshi games ever made. Yoshi's Crafted World is an imaginative and charming platformer which brilliantly fuses a well-made game design with an artistic papercraft style.

Games like Yoshi's Crafted World always get overlooked and quickly forgotten - they're not explosive enough, the graphics aren't realistic, and you can't make memes about how it's "destroying" you. But, this game is the perfect foil for all those other titles being produced, and while it's a different manifestation of quality, it's every bit the standard of any expensive, open-world blockbuster out there.

Yoshi's Crafted World is a terrifically simple platformer with a gorgeous art style and a focus on exploration over challenging gameplay.

Nintendo's trademark charm runs through the core of Yoshi's Crafted World and as a result it shines brightly. Perfectly quaint visuals abound as much as interesting level designs and puzzles that test a player's ability to use Yoshi's abilities to their fullest.

This utterly beautiful platformer may look like it’s meant for children, but don’t let yourself be fooled - it’s hard, so much so that even the easy mode presents a challenge. The co-op mode could use a bit of work, but all in all, this is another excellent Nintendo game.

Yoshi’s Crafted World is hours of fun for you and your whole family. Being able to step into a world with Yoshi as your main character will bring glee to any fans heart. He acts just as you remember from Super Mario World with all new tricks up his sleeve. For $59.99 USD you can own a copy of Yoshi’s Crafted World and you will not regret it.

Another great piece in the successful history of Nintendo Switch.

Yoshi’s Crafted World is a stable, enjoyable adventure that brings enough of a twist to the expected Yoshi adventure to make it stand apart in a way no Yoshi platformer has done in years. It has a few blemishes along the way, but just break out the duct tape and stick that cardboard back up so you can romp your way through this delightful easy-going platformer.

Yoshi's Crafted World is a great game thanks to the amount of content and the great coop experience. You just need to take your time when playing coop. The bosses could've been more challenging as well, but the Poochy-levels are great and make up for it.

Effortlessly charming, fun for any age and an imaginatively designed spectacle of origami originality. Yoshi’s Crafted World is fine art fun on the run or at home.

Yoshi travels to a world carefully crafted from anything it could find in your granny's supply box. Even though this game does not utilize its world as much as it could, it is still a relaxing and well-designed platform adventure, inviting anyone looking for a calming escape. Charming and fun.

Yoshi's Crafted World is a really fun title with a great design, perfect for fans of platform games and of course Yoshi fans. This makes us recommend the game to all players looking for an entertaining adventure starring their favorite dinosaur.
