The Yoshi’s Crafted World game is now available exclusively for the Nintendo Switch system. Lots of problems with this quiz. The answers should be in some kind of order. Alphabetical would be the best for the way it is. Better would be to separate the games by console with the year of release as a hint, and then list them chronologically. You're missing tons of answers. Yoshi is in all of the Super Smash Bros. Games, so you're missing.
Yoshi's Woolly World is a side-scrolling platformer video game developed by Good-Feel and published by Nintendo for the Wii U.The game is the seventh main entry in the Yoshi series of games, the first home console title in the series since 1997's Yoshi's Story, as well as the spiritual successor to 2010's Kirby's Epic Yarn. The game was released worldwide throughout 2015. Super Gay Mario. Mario had his 25th birthday party yesterday. Let's celebrate a quarter century of the video game icon by looking at a bunch of his homoerotic fan art.
Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World for the Nintendo 3DS may not be as beautiful as the 2015 Wii U version of the game, but it's just as fun—and even more packed with awesome features that'll keep you playing even once you've beat the game.
If you missed Yoshi's Woolly World for the Wii U, it was a side-scrolling platformer featuring yarn versions of the Nintendo icon Yoshi within a DIY-inspired world. The new game, releasing on Feb. 3, brings it to the portable 3DS system with all 55 original levels plus a bunch of add-ons, and I got the chance to play it before its release.

Yoshi Woolly World Guide
Welcome to Yoshi's Woolly World
The game begins with the yarn Yoshis hanging around, peacefully minding their own business before the magical baddie Kamek turns up, transforming most of the Yoshis into spools of wool. Once he's gone, it's up to the survivors to team-up with their friend Poochy the dog to go on an adventure and save their friends.

In some ways, the gameplay here is pretty similar to classic Yoshi titles like Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Story. Traditionally, Yoshi flutter-jumps his way through worlds swallowing up enemies, which allows him to lay eggs, letting him shoot those eggs back at bad guys and obstacles.
But Woolly World takes place in a gorgeous world where everything looks like it was painstakingly crafted by hand. The levels appear to be made of felt, yarn, beads and other DIY staples, so the gameplay changes accordingly.

Like Yoshi, most of the enemies in the game are made of yarn. When Yoshi lashes out at them with his tongue, they unravel into balls of yarn, which Yoshi uses like eggs as his projectiles. They're great for stopping bad guys in their tracks, turning platform outlines into solids, and hitting winged clouds to find hidden secrets along the way.
And because Yoshi is made of yarn, his movements aren't exactly like they were before. When he does his flutter-jump, his legs morph into lifting propellers, and when he runs along the ground, they turn into wheels.

If you spot a loose string in the environment, Yoshi can grab it with his tongue to unravel and unblock a path. Other hidden areas are covered by imaginary walls or can be pushed back to reveal goodies.
Collect EVERYTHING
Speaking of goodies, there's a lot to collect within this game. Each level has five hidden spools of 'Wonder Wool,' which are actually the component parts of the kidnapped Yoshis from earlier. Collect all five and you can recombine them to turn them into another Yoshi character you can play as during your adventure.
Certain levels also have special areas where Yoshi uses his yarn power to undergo awesome transformations. Yoshi can be everything from a motorcycle, to a mole, to a giant Yoshi, putting a cool new twist on the gameplay.
You'll also be collecting Smiley Flowers and Pencil Stamps, and you'll also be rewarded for beating the level with full health. The game may start off simple, but the challenge increases steadily as you move toward the end. If you're a completionist like me and you want to grab every last collectible, you'll have to tread slowly and carefully—and it'll take a while.
(via Nintendo)
But it doesn't all have to be a big challenge. Totally new to the Nintendo 3DS version of the game is a 'Mellow Mode' that makes the game easier for new players. It introduces an adorable mini version of Poochy called the Poochy-Pups who can sniff out secrets and goodies to help Yoshi along the way. They can also be shot at enemies like yarn balls. Mellow Mode also turns the player into a winged Yoshi who can stay in the air longer and navigate more easily during through jumping areas, and it can be toggled on and off even in the middle of a level.
(via Nintendo)
And if things are still tough, you can trade beads you collect throughout the levels for Power Badges. These grant the player special powers, like the ability to spit watermelon seeds or fall into chasms without consequence for the duration of a level. More and more Power Badges are made available as the game progresses.
And if you're ever running low on beads, the game also has a 'Yoshi Theater' where you can watch an adorable new Poochy and Yoshi clip every day for 31 days. At the end of each clip is a quiz, and you get beads for providing the correct answer about the video you just watched.
Make Your Own Yoshi
One of my favorite features of Poochy &Yoshi's Woolly World is the customization aspect. First off, every Yoshi you put together from Wonder Wools has three color variations you can choose from.
Even better, you can design your very own custom yarn Yoshis. Pencil Stamps unlock more patterns you can use in your designs so you can personalize Yoshi to your heart's content. You can make up to 10 and share them with friends via StreetPass. Here's one I created myself.
Amiibo figurines also contain their own adorable Yoshi patterns. Test your own Amiibo with the game to see what they unlock!
Amiibo!
When I saw the yarn Yoshi Amiibo figures a couple of years ago, I thought that their level of cuteness could never be matched.

I was super wrong. Poochy has easily dethroned those precious Yoshis.

Luckily for us, all of the yarn Amiibo figures are compatible with the new Nintendo 3DS title. You can use the yarn Yoshi Amiibo to store your favorite re-knitted Yoshis. Bring them into the game with you for a helpful Double Yoshi. This second onscreen character can also be swallowed up and thrown as a yarn ball.
The yarn Poochy Amiibo—which I can't wait to get my hands on once it's available Feb. 3—has a few uses. Firstly, you can bring Poochy into a troublesome level. He can grab goodies, help you traverse across treacherous levels and more.
He'll also unlock challenges in a new 3DS mode called Poochy Run where Poochy runs across the screen collecting beads. If you can beat Poochy's special challenges, you can unlock more looks for Poochy, too.
Overall, Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World is pretty much everything you'd want out of a Wii U port to the 3DS. If you're most concerned with the graphics, this probably isn't your game—but with tight, replayable gameplay, a memorable soundtrack with cute effects and new features that make the most of what the Nintendo 3DS can do, it'll impress pretty much everyone else. Check out the trailer below and grab your own copy on Feb. 3 for $39.99.

First announced in 2017 and released on March 29th, 2019, Yoshi's Crafted World is a game in the Yoshi's Island series for Nintendo Switch. Developed by Good-Feel, the game is a sequel to Yoshi's Woolly World as well as a Spiritual Successor to the company's earlier game Kirby's Epic Yarn.
In Yoshi's Island, there is a mystical artifact called the Sundream Stone that can make one's wishes come true. But one day, Kamek and Baby Bowser found about the Sundream Stone and tried to make off with it. Unfortunately, a struggle with the Yoshis and Kamek get into a battle that causes the Sundream Stone and its five jewels to be scattered across the island.
The game stars Yoshi who appears to be made out of crafted fabric rather than felt. He is able to throw eggs in a three dimensional plane for the first time.
Tropes found in this game include:
World Quiz Questions
- Amusement Park: Cardstock Carnival. Includes Ferris wheels, roller coasters, carousels, and Bullet Bills (fireworks, perhaps).
- Antepiece: The game frequently eases the player into each level's mechanics through safe environments. Sometimes, an entire level basically trains the player for an upcoming boss fight.
- Art Course: In a game already based on arts and crafts, this game has one in the form of 'Stitched Together', which actually reuses assets and aesthetics of the previous game, making it unique in a game that utilizes a different style of art. This also technically counts as a Nostalgia Level, in a way.
- Art Shift: Yoshi's Woolly World had mostly a yarn aesthetic, whereas Yoshi's Crafted World evokes what is essentially what happens when you ask a group of children to make dioramas with anything on hand, including paper plates, cans, cardboard boxes, drinking straws and so much more.
- Attack Its Weak Point: Typically represented by an X-shaped patch of tape. Some bosses weak to this include:
- Tin-Can Condor, whose weak point is under his crown.
- Gator Train, whose weak point is in its mouth.
- Burt the Ball, whose weak point is his crotch.
Advertisement: - Big Boo's Haunt: Haunted Maker Mansion. Enemies in this stage include Zombie Shy Guys, Chompagobblers, and Shy Guy Reapers.
- Bonus Boss: Kamek himself.
- Bonus Dungeon: Hidden Hills, which only can be accessed after beating the final boss.
- Boss Arena Idiocy: Tin-Can Condor is the only major boss who isn't a Tactical Suicide Boss, but it does have the misfortune of fighting Yoshi in an area where Mousers keep bringing in magnets Yoshi can use to weigh it down.
- Boss-Only Level: If there's a level with a Dream Gem icon, it's this. It's also the first game where Yoshi doesn't have to go through a castle level of sorts. However, the Bonus Boss doesn't have a gem.
- Boss Subtitles: Every major boss is shown to have a title after Kamek creates the boss from resources such as Burt the Ball.
- Bragging Rights Reward: You gain three costumes which grant five extra hit points for beating all the levels, finding all the flowers, and finding all the sprouts in the levels. The thing is it's rather easy to come upon costumes which grant you five extra hit points through in-game gambling, meaning the rewards will be redundant when you get them.
- Defeat by Modesty: In grand tradition, Burt the Ball (who is still rather bashful) wears pants that lower as he takes damage, with the fight ending once his pants are gone completely.
- Dem Bones: One level consists of a pursuit by Skelesaurus which appears to be a giant fossil-skeleton dinosaur. Also doubles as an Advancing Wall of Doom.
- Depth Perplexion: Sometimes it can be difficult for the game to tell what you're aiming at, especially if it's in the background.
- Directionally Solid Platforms: Justified by those platforms being 'tabs' that fold back when Yoshi is jumping through them. However, they only fold in one direction, explaining why Yoshi can't pass back through them.
- Dismantled MacGuffin: The Sundream Stone has five jewels that got scattered across the island.
- Eternal Engine: Mr. Geary's Factory, which has a few Lethal Lava Land elements, and ends with a battle against Mr. Geary himself.
- Fetch Quest: The Blockafeller quests have you replaying levels from the world in search of 'crafts', objects that can be found in the foreground and background of levels.
- Final-Exam Boss: The True Final Boss, Kamek Kerfuffle, involves fighting harder, Kamek-themed versions of Tin-Can Condor, Gator Train, and Baby Bowser's mecha, along with controlling Go-Go Yoshi one more time during the final phase.
- Five-Second Foreshadowing: One of the Message Boxes in 'Be Afraid of the Dark' simply reads 'He'll come from behind.' Cue axe-wielding doll bursting through the wall behind Yoshi.
- Groin Attack: Burt the Ball needs to be Ground Pounded right between his stubby feet after being knocked into the water.
- Ground Pound: Considering Yoshi's Island is the Trope Namer, this comes with the territory. It can be used to bash in stakes and defeat tougher enemies who can shrug off a typical stomp, tongue or egg to the face. Uniquely, the left shoulder buttons are also mapped to Ground Pound, in addition to the classic method of pressing down.
- Humongous Mecha:
- Go-Go Yoshi is a giant Yoshi mecha made out of cardboard.
- In the first phase of the final boss fight, Baby Bowser pilots a giant mecha.
- Instructive Level Design: The game makes minimal use of Hint Blocks by letting the level design itself teach the player how everything works. For example, Mine-Cart Cave teaches the player that the Action Bomb enemies can be used to blow up rocks by placing one of them in front of some rocks that blow up when it tries to attack.
- Jungle Japes: Rumble Jungle.
- Level Ate: 'Poochy's Sweet Run', where bridges are made of sandwich crackers and bounce pads are macarons.
- Level in Reverse: Each course has a 'Flip Side' where you play the level backwards, with the perspective flipped to match, and try to find and escort Poochy Pups to the goal.
- Levels Take Flight: 'Altitude Adjustment' involves Yoshi standing on a flying plane, whilst collecting coins, battling Shy Guys (including those on enemy planes) and popping balloons. The plane will fly lower if Yoshi stands on the front end, and it will fly higher if he stands on the rear end.
- Lily-Pad Platform: In the level 'Ride the River', Yoshi travels on a river riding of lilypads (made out of sponge, to fit the crafting theme of the game).
- Locomotive Level:
- 'Rail-Yard Run' (part of Sunshine Station) involves Kamek disassembling a steam engine, and Yoshi must find the three missing pieces to reassemble it. When he does, the train will take him to the goal.
- 'Whistlestop Rails' from Big Paper Peak is another locomotive level, this time with the better part of the level spent riding trains through fields and caves and dodging Fangs.
- 'Jungle Tour Challenge' from Rumble Jungle involves Yoshi riding on a train as he shoots eggs at the animal targets.
- 'Gator Train Attacks!' is a Traintop Battle against the titular Gator Train, which rides on rails parallel to Yoshi's.
- Make My Monster Grow: Averted this time. Rather than enlarging an enemy, Kamek gather resources from the scene for example, he used a tin can as the body base for Tin-Can Condor or acorns and sweet gum balls for Spike the Piranha's vines However it's played straight as per Yoshi game where he enlarges Baby Bowser for the second part of the final fight and the final phase of the Bonus Boss where Kamek himself grows giant.
- Monster Clown: The ragdolls in 'Be Afraid of the Dark' are invincible clowns who make demonic screeches and charge at Yoshi with axes.
- Monster Is a Mommy: Done in the first stage of Rumble Jungle. You're chased by much of the stage by an angry, aggressive Rhinono. At the end, you see that she's worried because her baby is stranded on the other side of a broken bridge. When you fix the bridge, she and her baby team up to break one last obstacle for you before they stop chasing you.
- Musical Nod: Some of the music, particularly in the world contain elements from the main theme in Yoshi's Story.
- Musical Spoiler: Upon completing the level 'Many Fish in the Sea', you can view its song in the Scrapbook. Said song is entitled 'A Teeny, Tiny Universe'.
- Mythology Gag: Some of the fake food cartons that the levels are made out of reference other Mario series, including:
- Moo Moo Meadows milk.
- Yo'sterCookies.
- Starbeans Coffee cans and bottles.
- Non-Lethal Bottomless Pits: Falling into a bottomless pit just deals some damage and makes Yoshi lose his eggs before turning into a winged egg and flying to the last solid ground he was on. Falling into a bottomless pit in the Hidden Hill levels or the True Final Boss is instant death, though.
- Nostalgia Level: 'Stitched Together' is done in the style of Woolly World, with most of the level being made out of yarn. In addition, a lot of its setpieces are inspired by iconic ones from Woolly World, such as the windmills and mobiles.
- Our Slashers Are Different: Rare E-rated example of this trope. The ragdolls in 'Be Afraid of the Dark' are invincible clowns who make demonic screeches and charge at Yoshi with axes.
- Painful Pointy Pufferfish: In the Yarrctopus Docks level 'Many Fish in the Sea', Yoshi has to ride on a variety of papercraft fishes, which serve as platforms. Some of the fishes are pufferfishes, which Yoshi has to avoid unless he wants to get damage.
- Patchwork Map: Literally and figuratively. The 'worlds' only consist of 2-3 levels this time and they all have very different themes, like the Space Zone being right after the Jungle Japes, yet those settings connected by simple paper trails guarded by cardboard robots.
- Pixel Hunt: The myriad Fetch Quests can often result in checking the background and foreground obsessively.
- Plot Coupon That Does Something: Smiley Flowers help make unhappy characters happy.
- Power Up Mount: Poochy returns as a mount for Yoshi to ride on, and retains his invincibility to enemies and hazards.
- Puzzle Boss: The Shogun is different from other bosses in that the point of his battle is to navigate a maze of moving rooms and spike walls until you reach his chambers, at which point he is completely defenseless.
- Racing Minigame: 'Solar Zoom' involves Yoshi riding a solar-powered car, and racing against Shy Guys in their own race cars. The car gains speed in sunlight and loses speed in the shadows, and running to the left or the right sides of the solar panels changes lanes.
- Recursive Ammo: The newly-introduced Blue/Teal Eggs (made by ricocheting a red egg) give the player 3 more eggs if used to defeat an enemy.
- Retaliation Mode:
- Yarrctopus pulls up the bridges of his ship and shuffles around behind them; he also spits sets of three spiked balls on his last hit point.
- Tin-Can Condor performs a sweeping set of ground pounds across the arena.
- Burt the Ball acts much like the aforementioned Big Montgomery, sending regular Burts to lob waves of beach balls at Yoshi from the background, before being spiked onto the arena himself.
- Spike the Piranha sends a sweeping wave of vines towards Yoshi from the background when hit.
- Gator Train becomes dizzy and rams all of the train cars Yoshi is standing on, forcing him to flutter-jump until the next train arrives.
- Baby Bowser's mecha performs an attack where he spins a bunch of rocket-shaped bottles around the arena.
- Mega Baby Bowser retreats to the background and summons several meteors whenever he gets hit.
- Rhino Rampage: Several aggressive rhinos appear in the Rumble Jungle. They ram on Yoshi on sight and are very persistent. This can prove useful, as they can be tricked into destroying obstacles Yoshi would otherwise be unable to pass.
- Ring-Out Boss: Burt the Ball has limited ways to harm Yoshi, and mostly just tries to knock him into the water with Bumpties and beach balls, and by tilting the arena. Spitting Bumpties at Burt allows Yoshi to turn the tide against him (figuratively and literally) and expose his weak point.
- Rise to the Challenge: At one point in Mr. Geary's Factory, Yoshi must climb to the top of a vat as the lava inside it rises.
- River of Insanity: 'Ride the River', especially with the Lunge Fish that try to eat Yoshi. One of which serves as an Advancing Wall of Doom near the end of the stage.
- Scenery Porn: This game is absolutely gorgeous and one of the gimmicks is to play in both the front and back halves of the stages!
- Shielded Core Boss: The Tin Can Condor is normally immune to your eggs or any form of damage, due to being plated in a coat of armor made of tin cans. However, Little Mousers periodically run across the screen with magnets, which you can then spit at him, dragging the feather armor off his head and exposing the weak point.
- Space Zone: Outer Orbit.
- Spiritual Successor: This game is even closer to Yoshi's Story than Woolly World was, both gameplay (free-aiming eggs and tridimensional paths) and aesthetic-wise, with a bigger emphasis on exploring and collecting. Even most of the music consists of arrangements of a single theme.
- Stalactite Spite: Several falling icicles appear in Slip-Slide Isle.
- Stop Motion:
- Whenever Kamek uses his wand to assemble a boss or when the Sundream Stone grants the wishes to make something for whatever one desires, it happens in what seems to be Stop Motion for the inanimate objects.
- The costume capsule dispensers have jerky, low frame rate animations. Given how realistic the material objects are made of can look in this game, it gives a very convincing stop-animation feel.
- Surprise Creepy: The majority of the game is bright and cheerful, as per usual for Yoshi. Then you meet 'Be Afraid of the Dark' and start to wonder why there are murderous axe-wieldingdolls akin to slashers in this cutesy, colorful game. This is despite 'Haunted Maker Mansion', the other spooky level, mostly being cute.
Yoshi Crafted World Switch Test
- Suspiciously Similar Substitute:
- Spike the Piranha is basically the land version of Naval Piranha.
- Burt the Ball has new attacks involving Bumpties and beach balls, but otherwise, he's just Burt the Bashful with a different name.
- Tactical Suicide Boss: Overall, a lot of the bosses would be invincible if they didn't keep summoning enemies Yoshi can throw or spit back at them.
- Spike the Piranha would be invincible if it didn't keep spitting out containers above it that can be hit to drop spike balls on it.
- Burt the Ball would be unbeatable if he didn't summon those Bumpties that Yoshi can spit at him.
- Gator Train is invincible, but when he tries to bite Yoshi, he exposes the soda can in his mouth, his weak point, as dictated by the tape over it.
- Baby Bowser would be unstoppable if he didn't keep summoning enemies Yoshi can use against him. His second phase would likewise be unbeatable if he didn't keep pulling out weapons Yoshi can use against him.
- Kamek keeps exposing himself to make his attacks more powerful, even though he'd be invincible if he just stayed hidden the whole time.
- Theme-and-Variations Soundtrack: Nearly all of the music consists of remixes of the game's main theme. The only exceptions are the map theme, boss theme, and final boss theme.
- Towering Flower: The Origami Gardens are filled with various flowers several times bigger that Yoshi and the local fauna alike.
- Traintop Battle: Gator Train is train fought by Yoshi on a train of his own.
- Unspoken Plan Guarantee: After the Yoshis gather four of the five Dream Stones, Kamek and Baby Bowser have an unspoken plan on what to do next. Turns out the plan was to just let the Yoshis get the last Dream Stone and reassemble the Sundream Stone so they can swipe it for themselves.
- Wake-Up Call Boss: Spike the Piranha will likely give one a tough time if they were off guard from the cakewalks that were Yarrctopus and Tin Can Condor, mainly due to his very hectic bullet patterns.
- Weakened by the Light: The dolls in 'Be Afraid of the Dark' get stopped by spotlights and will not chase Yoshi through them.
- Wintry Auroral Sky: Slip-Slide Isle, which takes place on a frozen island, has blue auroras shimmering in its nighttime sky.
- Wutai: All of the Ninjarama world is set in some kind of Japanese landscape;
- 'Deceptive Doors' takes place at a dojo at night with Shy Guys throwing paper stars and green straws emulating bamboo stalks.
- 'Behind the Shoji' is an autoscroller with the twist that portions of the level are hidden behind the titular sheet.
- 'The Shogun's Castle' is a Big Fancy Castle guarded by yogurt-cup swordsmen and featuring puzzles involving elevators.
