    This game is an absolute blast to play.

    Words cannot describe how good this game is to play with friends. I've played through the entire game with my brother and I was smiling the entire time. Sometimes, it feels like this game was made with 2-Player in mind. Yet, playing in single player is still an amazing experience to enjoy.

    Wooly World has some of the most fun collectables to search for. In a lot of games I've played, collectables usually feel like a chore, something that grab because I feel like I have to. This game never felt like that, without fail, I loved looking through every nook and cranny for the collectables that this game holds.

    And the level design is on a class on its own. Every level is meticulously stitched together with challenging puzzles and great platforming. I've been very repetitive in this review, but I can't possibly display how amazing this game is to play.

    Now for the selling point of this game: the art style. My god, I've never seen something so beautiful in a game. Wooly World's "Arts and Crafts" art style is something that perfectly encompasses the cuteness and joy of Yoshi.

    A lot of reviews by critics show above average views on this game and some show mixed. It's hard for me to agree with them because Wooly World gave me more joy than any other game I've played before. One of my most recommendable games. A 10/10 in mine, and many other's eyes.    … Expand

    The design is beautiful and at the same time it is so simple that you love to play it just by looking at it, not only the design matters but also the gameplay is very good.

    One of the best games for kids I've ever experienced, my little sister plays it all the time and she says is her favorite game, that shows how effective the game is being a great game for the ones that haven't play a Nintendo game before

    Nothing nicer than this game is possible to create according to the classical laws of physics! From the first frames you play as a knitted dragon, when he jumps up, he says peepeepeeu! And there is also an amiibo for the game and they are not made of plastic, but also knitted!

From the first frames you play as a knitted dragon, when he jumps up, he says peepeepeeu! And there is also an amiibo for the game and they are not made of plastic, but also knitted! Okay, not counting the cuteness, there are a lot of curious mechanics in the game and each level adds something new, and there are 43 levels, so you'll get tired of listing, but the main thing: you untie the enemies, which are made of yarn, into balls, and then from these balls you tie up ladders/ platforms / pipes to pass through. Bosses are lamp bosses of a healthy person: and not annoying impenetrable but you will need to find your own approach to everyone. And of course the achievements! The creators have stuffed every level with them from the bottom of their hearts! Somewhere you need to crumple the fabric of the level wall in order to move it and go to a secret location (you remember that everything is knitted in the game), somewhere to dive under water, although the main line of passage is on the surface, somewhere above the clouds to collect achievements behind the upper edge of the screen (even the camera does not move there).
    In short, my recommendation is: give birth to a son and go through this game with him, at least because when playing together, you can also untie a friend and throw his clew wherever you want! :-)    … Expand

    The fact that Yoshi's Woolly World hasn't been ported to the Switch is a crime. It is such a beautiful game, and it's always a good time in co-op. It's fun in solo too, but it's always better to get a friend along. If you're on the fence about getting this game, just get it, especially if you're planning to get it digitally because of the whole e-shop thing

    Un jeu sympa sans plus. J’ai passé un bon moment mais bon y’a mieux et bien pire. De quoi s’occuper si y’a pas d’autre jeu.

    Not every level in Yoshi’s Woolly World is a winner, and the game suffers in comparison to the absolutely magical Super Mario 3D World, which still easily ranks as the Wii U’s best platformer. But it deftly pulls off the trick of being both stupendously cute and technically well-crafted, appealing to youngsters drawn in by the sweet plush Yoshis and to more skilled gamers looking to challenge their reflexes and item-hunting skills.

    Overall, Yoshi’s Woolly World is a “Nintendo” game at its finest. The game not only draws in gamers with a captivating art-style and excellent soundtrack, but it also keeps them engaged with spectacular and diverse gameplay elements. Fortunately, Yoshi’s Woolly World packs in a wealth of options too, which accommodate new players as well as Nintendo veterans alike.
