    The game is short, but the last chapter can be pretty challenging and the main boss fight is a serious pain in the, uhh, wrist.

    All in all, it's a neat trick. [Aug 2005, p.108]

    While it's pretty easy to do the minimum required to pass each checkpoint, getting special items will demand a flexible imagination that stretches far beyond simple 2D. [Sept 2005, p.81]
  4. Despite its flaws, Topsy Turvy delivers, as usual, a fun, innovative Nintendo-published adventure.
  5. There is truly no game experience like Yoshi: Topsy Turvy, and this puts it in a unique place. For what it is, Yoshi's latest adventure is a success, but one could only imagine what a great game this could have been.
  6. This is all a lot of fun, although rotating the screen on a jostling subway train can be hard on those of us affected by motion sickness.
