Yoshi's Crafted World- Videogames As Art

I'm a big fan of Nintendo and a huge part is due to their creativity and uniqueness in creating wonderful gaming experiences that you can play with your family. After completing Super Mario 3D World, my daughters and I were looking for our next game and Yoshi's Crafted World appealed to them due to its cute aesthetic. The art style takes a leaf out of the Kirby's Epic Yarn game in that everything in the game is made from craft materials such as bottles, cups, straws, cardboard and cans.

The sheer creativity and wealth of ideas on show is crazy. The little mini-game stages, where you are in a plane, piloting a giant robo-Yoshi or riding Poochie, pop up every now and then and add to the variety of gameplay. It's a gorgeous game and its soft fluffy look belies a challenging collectathon for those who like that kind of thing. I'm a platform fan and this game definitely scratched that itch, even if I wasn’t bothered in collecting the 600+ smily flowers. Check out the screenshots from my playthrough!
